If you are visiting Carrieres des Lumieres, lunch at nearby Fontvieille is a real pleasure. La Cuisine au Planet is in a 16th century house in the centre of this beautiful village. It really feels like the heart of Provence.
Today it’s the 3rd generation of the family running the restaurant – the twice I have eaten there, the food has been excellent.
Parking tight in the village…..but worth the hassle.
The South of France. Enchanted by the deep blue of the Mediterranean, the olive trees, poppies, irises and that dazzling light, artists found their creativity flourished under the hot sun. My new book takes you on a journey visiting museums and galleries as well as artists’ studios and their favourite painting spots. From Van Gogh in Arles, to Signac in Saint-Tropez; from Cézanne in Aix, over to Nice for Renoir and Matisse, the story unfolds of artists who knew each other and painted together in the warm south. Prepare too to meet colourful local artists who captured their beloved Provence for us to enjoy.
