Staying at Mrs. Frédérique’s was truly enchanting. The historic house features a centuries‑old garden with lavender, olive trees, oleanders along a stone wall and paths, and large ceramic‑pot bushes. From the garden we could see a typical church with a narrow tower and bell tower. We lived in a two‑bedroom duplex apartment that had a beautiful bathroom, a separate toilet, and a perfect common room. Our teenage daughters appreciated the privacy on the upper floor and really liked it there. My husband and I enjoyed a cozy Provençal bedroom on the ground floor with beautiful wall paintings, which we were excited about. The nearby white mountain Ventoux was a recurring motif. Mrs. Frédérique took excellent care of us, preparing a wonderful French breakfast each morning with a different typical Provençal cheese, ham, pastries, a bowl of fruit, and various jams (strawberry, fig, apricot). After each meal she baked a unique cake, pie, or pancakes—an excellent dessert that thrilled us. She also helped plan trips, recommended excellent restaurants, and always reserved dinner spots for us. Everything smelled of lavender, and the clean swimming pool was available to guests and kept spotless after each outing. We felt like we had adopted Mrs. Frédérique as our French mother. When we said goodbye, she gave us a small gift that moved us deeply. Thank you again; we definitely recommend the Domaine Lafayette accommodation—it was amazing.
