Le Paradis en Provence
Need some time to relax, away from the hustle and bustle of work and the city?
Lose yourself in Provence...
Le Paradis is an 18th century farmhouse located in the very heart of the most beautiful French countryside on the outskirts of a very typical Provencal village...
It is said of our nearest town Vaison la Romaine that the Romans came here to recharge their batteries, it was much favoured for it's climate and rustic country life. Especially by the retiring officers who were given land for their military services. Archeological digs have revealed that they lived in splendour and there is evidence of immense luxurious homes with mosaic floors, atriums, ponds and private thermal baths. It is also believed that they attached great importance to artistic creation. But if all you want to do is take a drive to a nearby beauty spot, be it a lake in Verdon, the Pont du Gard in Nimes or a lavender field in Sault, Roslyn can make you a delicious picnic to take with you.
Just a few comments from guests who've enjoyed their stay here... ;-)
Thank you so much for a lovely holiday. It's been very relaxing. Thank you too for being so accommodating and for the lovely meal on Saturday, haven't laughed so much for ages. Lots of love and hopefully see you again. Ruth xx
We have had such a lovely time and you have looked after us amazingly. Thank you so much for making our holiday so perfect, it's been brilliant. Good luck to you, we will be recommending it to everyone. Lots of love Claire xxx
Endroit absolument charmant, un accueil formidable et de trés belles chambres bien décorées. Merci beaucoup pour ce court sejour, mais qui represente beaucoup pour nous, avec la presence de 4 générations. Bonne continuation. Michel et Claudine
Un trés grand merci a toute votre famille pour ce beau séjour Provencal! Nous sommes tombé amoureux de cette région et espérons pourvoir y revenir trés bientot. Votre maison est superbe et arrangée avec beaucoup de gout. Tout est si Zen... Bonne continuation en tout cas! Nous ferons de la pub pour vous a Paris. A beintot Anne & Guillame ps Thanks again for the wonderful days! Next year we'll only speak French ;-) !
Le Paradis will remain in our thoughts long after we return to normal life. The wonderous peace & tranquility of this gorgeous part of Provence is matched only by the fabulous hospitality of Roslyn. We firmly intend to rebook as soon as we are back in email territory & hope to stay for a meal next time. The children (and us!) were especially touched by the loan of toys and the lovely gift of seeds which will hopefully grow into permanent (edible) reminders of this special place. See you very soon, best wishes and all the best of luck. Adam, Sue, Ruby & Ben

Architecture in Tarascon, France
This is a short clip showing some aspects of the town of Tarascon, France.
I found bastide aspects here such as in these porch buildings.
Bastides were a grid form of English town down in France long ago, a kind of fortification and also city management. Sanitation was easier to deal with when things were all squared off, like. The porches afforded some shelter in bad weather or from hot sun and all, and bourgeois families lived there and on the ground floor, under a porch which gave more space to the abode above also, had a big arch window from which they dealt their wares.
These houses usually had a tiny space between them where a real gutter system was set up. Kitchen sinks and all would expel neatly there and be collected in gutters. I just rented a house for a week at 24, rue Renan in Arles not far from Tarascon, and when it rained there the gutters filled right up and were super essential! The little street I stayed on for a week is cobblestoned and no cars are allowed of course, and in order for it to stay clean and clear, a basic system of drainage and good services by city cleaners are needed.
Tarascon is across the river from Beaucaire, its sister city. It is on the Rhône river near the Mediterranean sea, and there are huge castles here, a horse and bullfighting culture and rice production. Tarascon has a history of tolerance and acceptance of Jews, and as I entered the town from the castle of Le Roi René, I went down Jew Street.
