PROVENCE, FRANCE | LE DOMAINE DE CHATEAUNEUF
By Charlotte Burgoyne,This passed school year we would have liked to register the kids to tennis lessons, ourselves to yoga classes and find time for a daily jogging. What actually happened is quite different: we managed to go to 5 yoga classes, do one jog per month and we put off the tennis lessons to next year. So we are thinking that the summer break could be the perfect opportunity to please our athletic soul.Nestled in a little village in Provence, an hour away from Marseille in France, the Domaine de Chateauneuf is THE ideal place to start a sport with the kids in a laid-back environment. The old country house is surrounded by an 18 holes golf course, mountains filled with walking and bike paths and offers a pool, tennis courts, a mobile climbing wall and a nearby riding school.Transported by the sound of the cicadas and the delicious lavender scent, you will be able to improve your golf swing with free classes and green fees, play tennis, try aquagym and FINALLY do a daily jogging and practice yoga as much as you want. We already here this little voice in you: but what will I do with the kids? At the Domaine de Chateauneuf children of all ages are taken care of from morning to night by an expert team of babysitters; and as everything offered on site it is at no extra costs.What if you don't like sport? Don't worry, the hosts of the property have thought about everything. Little ones will be able to do DIY projects, singing, painting, music or fruit picking in the garden. You will to take cooking classes, go explore local cultural sites, or visit Cézanne's workshop.When you get hungry, go settled down in one of the dining area and enjoy some local specialities made by the Chef of Chateauneuf such as "soupe au pistou", "daube provençale", "tarte au rougets"...Prices, ALL INCLUSIVE: Adulte: 2090€; Teen (12/18 ans): 1450€; Child (3/11 ans): 990€ ; Baby (- de 3 ans): 690€ and one kid less than 3 years old invited per family if he shares his parents or brothers/sisters' bedroom.
