Hosted, self-guided bike tours from our family-run, 17th Century stone Farmhouse B&B in the Luberon, Provence

Our cycling holidays are small scale, with no more than 8 bikers, so we are able to give you an individual personalised service, thus making sure you get the best experience possible cycling in Provence, France.

We live here all year round, so we have lots of local knowledge. And we use this to guide you along quiet, beautiful backroads, that will take you through picturesque landscapes, some beautiful lavender fields and on to the best sights; whether it be to an unknown pretty stone village, a favourite local restaurant, an authentic farmers' market or renowned vineyard.

Our Provence bike trips from our our 17th Century farmhouse in Coustellet are self-guided and flexible. And we are always happy to help you choose the right ride, distance and level of difficulty to suit you on a daily basis. And you ride at your pace, after all these are your cycling holidays!

And you'll use our quality, new Trek hybrid bikes & the latest, easy to use, stress-free Garmin GPS systems, preprogrammed with all of our most popular rides, for all levels.

We have been running our single base Provence bike trips for the last 13 years, and have had a 5* rating on Tripadvisor for all of that time, along with a 100% recommendation rate.

Brilliant! Neil and Nat (our super friendly hosts) have a great BnB in a perfect location and the rooms are very comfortable. Breakfast was perfect and close to town to walk to a dinner, as we didn’t have a car! Neil has mapped out brilliant self-guided rides (we stayed with the moderate level to enjoy the towns) and has them on cards and a Garmin, making very simple to go around to see and experience the Luberon Valley. The towns are stunning/amazing and the food was just as good (recommendations from Neil each day were perfect). We were very lucky as they were harvesting the lavender and beautiful scenery too. It was a very hot week in Provence so starting the rides early and coming back to the pool was great too! I thoroughly recommend visiting the Luberon Valley with Neil and Nat!
