Where has the summer gone? ☀️🌿
We’ve been a little quiet on here lately — not because we haven’t had anything to share, quite the opposite!
It’s been a very busy summer at La Bastide des Pins, with the gîtes pretty much booked out and lots of lovely guests coming to stay with us. ❤️
But amongst welcoming guests, breakfasts, pool days and all the usual summer busyness, we’ve managed to get out and enjoy a little of the summer ourselves too.
And what a summer it’s been…
🎸 We saw Lenny Kravitz in Nîmes
🏛️ Enjoyed Le Rêve du Gladiateur at the arène
🎉 Joined in with the local fêtes votives at Uzes
✨ Watched the spectacular Pont du Gard light show
💜 Took a trip to the beautiful lavender fields
🛶 And even found time for a little kayaking down the Gardon with friends.
It’s been full, busy, sometimes exhausting… but full of wonderful moments. And we wouldn’t have it any other way. ❤️
Now September is here, the pace is slowing down a little, the temperature is beautiful and the summer crowds are beginning to disappear.
Perhaps it’s time for you to discover this wonderful corner of the Gard?
🌿 We still have some availability in our recently refurbished gîtes for September. 🇫🇷☀️🍷
