Hello, my name is Cristiana, originally from the Venetian region (northern Italy), I trained in tourism and events; I come from a family of cooks and chefs, so passionate about cooking to the point that I do a radio transmission of gastronomy, a follower of the slow food movement, practical kitchen km 0, organic, vegetarian and gluten-free, and I believe in ecology recycling. I really like movies, music, and theatre. I moved here in this wonderful area in Provence Luberon, comiong from Paris, with my partner and my three cats, Tissi, Fifi and Loulou. I am really enjoying managing this property, with a particular attention on the relation with the guests, doing all what is possible to make them feel confortable at home.

we are 5 minutes walk from Forcalquier center, with its shopping, services and the new "green village " We are also at the start of many trekking : 45 minutes walk to historic site of “Les Mourres”, 3 hours walk to the mountain of “Lure “ ( saint Etienne les Orgues) Many possibilities of leisure in the surroundings : golf, tennis, stand up paddling, trekking, horse riding, historical visits ( Monastery of Ganagobie, Abbaye Notre Dame de Sénanque,…) ballooning, biking.
