Le Lavandin is simply perfection! Our family of 6 (mom, dad, 7 year old, 6 year old, 4 year old and 9 month old) stayed there in July and it was bliss. The setting is magical and Provence personified. Our rooms on the top level of the house were beautifully furnished and very chic, modern and clean. The guest house has the charm of Provence and all the modern conveniences that so many of us yearn for on holiday, especially with children. The owner Georgia (an American) simply gets travelers, she renovated the farm house to perfection: the decor, the outdoor kitchen WITH washing machine, boules pitch, gorgeous lavender gardens with huge hedges of rosemary, the setting is stunning. The pool is refreshing with tasteful deck furniture as well a pool toys for the kids. Breakfasts were heavenly and served in the gardens, one morning we had "french toast" and another we had fresh chevre on toasts, and also had a selection of yogurts, jams, breakfast pastries, simply delicious. And a major bonus is the location to all the other "must-see" towns and villages of Provence: Isle sur la Sorgue is only 10 minutes away to the most amazing antique shop towns, Avignon is 20 minutes away. All in all it was BLISS! Well done, Georgia, you have created a piece of paradise!

You will feel welcomed, nurtured, and pampered at this charming get-a-way near Ile Sur Le Sorgue in Provence. The most beautiful breakfast greets you each morning in the garden. The hostess, Georgia Perrin, is most helpful with suggestions and directions for local restaurants.

My husband and I stayed for six nights during July 2005 at this charming bed & breakfast in the Provencal countryside. It was superb in every respect. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a very nice swimming pool and extensive gardens which have been beautifully landscaped. Best of all is the owner, Georgia Perrin, who runs this wonderful place. Her breakfasts are outstanding. If you are lucky enough to get one of her tarte l'onion's ykouwill really think you are in paradise. The best I've ever tasted anywhere.

Le Lavandin was recommended to us by a friend and it was even better than what she said it woudl be. he property is truly fantastic, filled with lavender, roses, many flowering bushes, gorgeous trees, a swimming pool, a fountain, and a a labyrinth. We walked the peaceful property every day. From the property you can walk along a canal to the village or bike and she has those for you as well. The other great thing about this property is how convenient it is to everything in the region.We had planned to stay four nights, but we liked it so much we decided to spend our entire time at this heavenly place. Our room was lovely and spacious with a large living area, huge terrace and summer kitchen. She has books, bikes, a grill and you can do your laundry if you are having an extended stay. Georgia, the owner, went out of her way to make this visit special. Maybe one of the most special things about the experience was having Georgia take such good care of us. She initiated some very special experiences for us, suggesting dinner at a lovely vineyard (amazing), made lunch reservations for us at fantastic restaurants, and shared information about the markets and things both to see and skip.
Georgia gave us maps and sent us off with a delicious homemade breakfast every morning. Perhaps the only problem is that you might be tempted to stay at Le Lavandin and not see all of the other beautiful things in Provence. We recommend this place without reservation. Don't miss this one!

My husband and I have just returned from our 8th stay with the incomparable Georgia at the most amazing Le Lavandin. It really is a little piece of heaven in Provence. There is really no way to describe all of the wonderful days that pass during your visit from markets in the tiny villages surrounding Pernes, to the incredible restaurants that Georgia will direct you towards to the scrumptious breakfasts that will begin your day under the blooming trees in Georgia's garden.
If you have a bucket list, Le Lavandin should be on it.

A wonderful B&B. The accomodations are first rate as is the owner Georgia Perrin and her dog Utah. The property is charming with breakfast (scrumptious) served outdoors. The rooms are spacious and charming. Georgia is remarkable for her accomplishments as well as her guidance in exploring Provence. Of all the places we stayed throughout France, Le Lavandin was the crème de la creme.

By far the most beautiful and restful stay that we experienced on our trip through Provence happened at the guesthouse of le Lavandin. Just 20 minutes east of Avignon, it takes you away from the noise, traffic and tourists to peace and quiet. Following the warm welcome and tour of the property by owner, Georgia Perrin and her dog, Utah, we took a collective sigh and realized that we were in an extraordinary sanctuary. From the gardens of lavender and roses to the beautifully decorated, yet comfortable, guesthouse this place is heaven!!
There are lounge chairs and tables hidden away all over the property. They were the perfect spot to curl up with my book while my husband had a snooze. A breakfast of fresh fruit and homemade pastries was served on the patio overlooking the gardens.
Our only disappointment, which was our own fault, was that we didn't stay longer. Next time we hope to take advantage of one of several workshops offered in cooking, writing, painting or wine. And I will be sure to book a massage.
We plan to return next June when the lavender is in bloom and the pool overlooking the garden is warm. But we may not be able to wait that long!
Ahhhhh...Provence at it's finest....le Lavandin!

I read about Georgia's B& B in 2005 and dreamed of staying here. It was a dream come true. The grounds with lavender, roses and hydrangeas make a heavenly garden. The rooms are a beautiful sanctuary. Georgia is the perfect host. The breakfast is incredible. We walked into town along the canal and it was a true representation of a country walk into Pernes-les-Fountaines. I highly recommend staying here. You will be in heaven.

My husband and I stayed with Georgia for two days and wish it had been many more. Providing such a respite from the rigors of travel, Georgia is an engaging, helpful, nurturing proprietress and hostess. We entered her world and felt immediately her grace and warmth in every single detail, from the intoxicating fragrance of the lavender, to the smallest touches of soaps and lotions to the incredibly bounteous breakfast. The room was large and comfortable; the bed king sized with luscious sheets and pillows, the shower made you want to linger, the outdoor private patio provided just the right mix of comfort and solitude. Best of all were the walks around the garden, early morning to late evening, to witness the work of art Georgia has created with her garden and to feel so connected to the natural world and to the bees and butterflies buzzing around the lavender. We are hoping to be able to return many more times.

Le Lavandin is run by an American hands-on host who couldn't be more helpful. It's a beautiful relaxing atmosphere with a pool and fantastic breakfast. Georgia will make dinner reservations for you and offer suggestions of where to visit in the region. Rooms are very comfortable. Highly recommended.
