B&B BIKE TOURS - FAQs ON ACCOMMODATION & MEALS.

OUR FAQs:

OUR ANSWERS:

Meals - What meals are provided?

We provide a substantial French buffet style breakfast each morning & and a home cooked 3 course meal (traditional French Provencale cuisine) every third night (set menu with wine & soft drinks included). The majority of meals at the farmhouse are served outside under the vine covered pergola on the terrace.
Please note that our evening meals have a set menu that tend to be traditional French cuisine, so unfortunately we can not cater for vegans, sorry.
If you are vegetarian, need to eat gluten or lactose free, or have any other food allergies, can you please be sure to let us know at the time of booking (not on arrival), as all of our menus need to be planned in advance.
When dining out, our listing of favourite restaurants & cafes should help point you in the right direction. We have around a dozen restaurants in the village (5/10 mins walk) of which 4 are very good. The other restaurants on our list are a 5 to 15 minutes' drive. Of course, if you need us to, we will happily make reservations for you.

Special Dietary Requirements - Can you cater for people with special dietary requirements?

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the house and on the terrace.

Wine tasting - how does it work if we want to buy some bottles?

Most vineyards will do free tastings, often with 3 rosés, 3 reds and 3 whites. Although the tastings are usually free the custom is to buy a bottle or two for their time, must be said the prices are very reasonable. Most will ship a case to you plus the postage costs.

Yes you can - as you can many of the fresh water fountains dotted around the countryside here. If it's not potable they must tell you, either "Eau non potable" or "Eau non controlee".

Yes, we have a cat, Rocket. She's both an indoor and outdoor cat. Though she is not allowed in the bedrooms.
