Cycling, Skiing, Hiking etc: Mont Ventoux is regularly used as a Tour de France stage, but it's not for casual cyclists! There is plenty of cycling elsewhere for the less serious minded. Mont Ventoux has a couple of ski runs which open on occasion if there is sufficient snow, but it is NOT a ski resort! There is plenty of wonderful walking, much 'from the door' and other regions within 20-30 mins drive (such as the Dentelles). Mont Ventoux caters for all levels of walking, and there is a wealth of flora and fauna to enjoy. Wild board, deer, buzzard, eagle, wallcreeper, hoopoe, shrike etc may all be seen. Spring flowers (especially many orchids), and autumn wild mushrooms. Decent golf course 1 hour south near St Remy. Riding stables in the village. Wines! : The nearest vineyard is (British owned) 5 mins walk above the house (Cotes du Ventoux). There are several excellent Ventoux vineyards within 20 mins drive, and a very good Cave Cooperative in Bedoin (3 km). 20 mins away is Beaumes de Venise (sweet whites, luscious underrated reds). 30 mins brings in Gigondas (big beefy reds), Seguret, Cairanne (much improved Rhone village red and white), also about 30 mins drive. 35 mins away is Chateauneuf du Pape - the oldest AOC in France. All these regions have many cellars that allow visits (phone ahead), and most have general sales outlets also. Eating Out: An excellent pizzeria is in the little village Les Baux (5 mins walk), and Ste Colombe (another little village 6 mins walk above the house) has a good general bar/restaurant and an excellent more expensive restaurant. Bedoin (3 km) has several eating places, covering most price ranges. Within 30 mins drive is a good selection of more expensive restaurants with Michelin and/or Gault Millau recommendations.
