When friends tell you they have chateaus in the French countryside that you are welcome to stay at, they're not usually serious. But our friend, Maxine Litre was. We got to stay at her family's beautiful house in Les Imberts near Gordes, about 30 minutes outside of Avignon.
The weekend was grey and warm, with patches of sun that came every now and then, and we vastly enjoyed being able to bike all around this quaint little town. The house itself was just amazing. Five bedrooms, a beautiful kitchen, and gigantic living room/dining room. It was in perfect condition. Speakers everywhere for good music listening, and faster wifi than here at the fondation in Paris! Gordes was a 6 km bike ride away, so we took some bread and cheese and picnicked while overlooking this beautiful village that looked as if it had been carved out of the mountain.
The chateau is actually available for vacation rental when the Litre's are not using it. Click here for more info: http://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p257513
