Lourmarin in Provence
Has anyone been to this town. Is it worth it?<BR>
|
it is a nice village with a super restaurant at the moulin de lourmarin.<BR>I found a great ink well with a cigale(that I collect) at a shop there. If you are a literary person....Camus is buried there. All the villages are worth a first time visit.

I was in Lourmarin for a brief visit in Oct. 2000. I think it is one of the prettier villages of the Luberon. (Peter Mayle now lives there, if that's any indication.) There is a XIV-XV century chateau that can be visited during high season. For more info go to<BR>www.lourmarin.com Enjoy your visit!

Judie,<BR><BR>Agree with other posters about Lourmarin. You don't say if you're going to stay there or just want to pop in and see the town. I visited for a couple of hours (unfortunately missed the guided visit to the chateau) and thought it was charming. I was staying about 20 minutes away otherwise wouldn't have gone there. I think there are many equally pretty towns in the area so I wouldn't go far out of my way to visit.<BR><BR>Adrienne<BR><BR>

Thanks for the info. I wanted to know whether I should include it on my village tour.
