Brantes Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Located in Provence, Mont Ventoux is one of the most famous climbs used in the Tour de France. With a summit at 1911m above sea level it also offers an epic challenge to any cyclist. There are three routes to the top: from Bedoin, from Sault or from Malaucene.

The famous 'moonscape' opens out approximately 6km from the summit, the wind and lack of protection making for some tough riding conditions . Although a summit selfie is obligatory after such an epic achievement, this view gives a distinct sense of how far you've come. The wagon selling cookies and treats at the height of the season is an added bonus!

More than basic- not clean and do not recommend
The cleaners had left the door open during a rain storm so the living room had a huge puddle and the curtains had soaked up the water and it smelled awful. Also we had asked for a baby cot in advance and reconfirmed the day before but there was no cot meaning there was nowhere for our child to sleep ...

Could be 5 stars with a few little touches
The location of this gite is perfect. Gorgeous view of Mt. Ventoux and close to restaurants, bakeries, groceries, and, of course, local activities like wineries, hiking, biking. The gite itself was nice and Jean Luc the host was pleasant and responsive. The biggest frustration was a very fussy shower ...

A great get away for quiet and wine
A very modern property with a private courtyard and swimming pool. An ideal place to relax and enjoy tranquility and the great Provençal climate. Also, the village is quite isolated but very well situated to visit the domains and villages associated with wonderful wine making of this region.
