La Roque d'Anthéron sits at the hub of many of Provence's key destinations, from Avignon to the lavender fields of Haute Provence and Arles, Aix, Marseille and the calanques on the coast.
Set in a peaceful wooded area by the river on the edge of La Roque d'Anthéron, the lovely mediaeval Cistercian Abbaye de Silvacane is one of Provence's best kept secrets. |
