Great place for exploring the Luberon
We had a great time at Su Lei Campanes, Gaëlle is such a charming host! The house is artistically decorated and was nicely prepared for our arrival. It was a real home-from-home! Lauris is a great centre for exploring the Luberon and beyond. We made it to Arles and the Natural Park of the Camargue, to Rousillon, to Pont du Gard and one of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyards, to the Roman and mediaeval city of Vaison-la-Romaine and to Cassis on the Riviera, as well as the more local towns of Lourmarin, Bonnieux and Lacoste.
Lauris itself has good places to eat. We dined twice at Bistrot Jeannette, with its delicious food and friendly staff, just 5 minutes walk away. The pizza at La Storia is as good as you'll get anywhere (as judged by our Italian companion). The Super U supermarket just a few minutes away by car (in Puyvert) met our home cooking needs as well as having a good selection of wines and local products. We loved the Monday morning market, the Epicerie Jeannette, the patisserie/boulangerie, and the local pottery in La Table de Margot. We were welcomed at a Wednesday morning Mass in the church next door, and everyone we met in Lauris was so friendly and helpful. A truly memorable time!
