THE BIKING:



One of the main themes of our single base, self-guided bike holidays is flexibility, we want to give you the vacation that's right for you!

So when you're here you'll use our comprehensive Ride Directory (with 30+ self guided rides) to help choose the right trips for you.

First, start by choosing which of our 6 different ride zones (A through to E) you want to visit that day. And we can give you help as to which zone is best to bike on any given day; When are the best market days? When the best restaurants are open? When a village is best avoided? etc...

Then, choose the level of route difficulty that suits you best; from Easy, Moderate, Hard or Extra Hard within that zone. The level of difficulty is based on the distance and the amount of climbing of each ride. Click HERE for details on our Ride Selection...

You then simply select your chosen ride number on your Garmin GPS and then set off from our Farmhouse - it's that simple! You get to ride the distances & see the sights that you want to - when you want to! Click HERE for details on our GPS systems...

During your vacation with us in Provence, we'll provide you with one of our new, quality Trek FX 3 hybrid bikes, and all the essential bike equipment that you need for a safe and problem-free holiday. We can also provide Ebikes for those who would like more of a gentle tour, Tandems or Carbon Road Bikes (All at a fee of €208 for your stay. Please place your order at the time of booking). Click HERE for more bike & equipment details.

And for your peace of mind, in the unlikely event that you have a mechanical problem, full support and transport are only a phone call away.

In terms of our location, the B&B is at the heart of the Luberon Regional Park with its stunning countryside, hilltop villages and calm backroads - which all make up for a great backdrop for biking.

TOUR DURATION & START DATES:

Situated opposite the Luberon Hills we are at the heart of one of France's most beautiful Regional Parks. The Luberon Park in France, with its centuries-old stone villages and beautiful countryside, great sunny weather, makes for excellent biking.

A TYPICAL DAY:



We've put together examples of what 2 days of typical cycling can look like. The 1st example is for guests that put more of an emphasis on the cycling, whilst the 2nd example has an emphasis on the sightseeing. Click HERE to see these two examples.

FLEXIBILITY:




We want to give you the self guided bike tour that's right for you, this means it needs to be flexible. As what is good for one person might not be right for the next. Our tours let you do as much or as little biking as you want. There is no "one route a day to fit all", and there is definitely no time schedule to keep to. So if you want to stay by the pool in the morning and then do a quick ride to a hilltop village or vineyard - you can. But if you're more inclined to be on the bike by 9am and spend a day in the hills - that works too.

SOME TRIPADVISOR REVIEWS FOR OUR B&B BASED PROVENCE BIKE TRIPS:

Super Provence Biking.
"Neil supplied all of us with Garmin GPSs and sent out on our own each morning. We did just fine, nobody got lost, and the routes Neil selected were mainly on small hardly travelled country roads and bike paths winding the way through the valley and finding their way up the shallowest gradient to the hilltop villages."
French Cycling Vacation in Provence - Andy - US - Sept 18 - 5* Tripadvisor review.
A FANTASTIC Vacation !!
"The location in Provence, France, was perfect, the weather ended up being perfect, our biking group of eight friends was perfect, the bikes were perfect, our accommodations were perfect and the family run Provence Cycling Holidays with Neil and his family was perfect!!!! "
French Bike Holidays in Provence - Rick - US - Sept 17 - 5* Tripadvisor review.
An Incredible Cycling Experience.
"Our stay with Neil & Natalene turned out to be the highlight of our European holiday. Neil’s personalized route planning makes for a very enjoyable cycling experience. Each morning Neil discusses the cycling options and tailors the routing to your specific interest. There’s lots to choose from: hill top villages, ancient castles, vineyards, canals, outdoor markets, and of course, lavender fields."
French Cycling Vacation, Provence - Blair - Canada - Oct 16 - 5* Tripadvisor review.
Provence Cycling Holiday - entirely charming!

Neil gave personalized advice in selecting routes that were just perfect for us..."
