The holiday home is 6 km from Caromb.
You can easily recognize Caromb from afar thanks to its Gothic Saint-Maurice church, with its beautiful 'rosette' window on the facade. Take a peek inside the Provençal organ case from 1701! The tomb of Etienne de Vesc, a 15th century aristocrat, was then located in the 'Chapelle Seignuriale'. As you walk through this authentic little town, you will see many remains of the old walls, the belfry and a few fountains, including the fountain of the 14th century castle.
Most shops are closed in Caromb on Mondays. The morning market takes place every Tuesday morning. On Fridays, in the Cave Caromb car park, you can go to the Poissonerie Sud Marée (departing from Monteux) for very fresh fish. Be sure to take the time to see how olive oil is made at the Moulin du Comtat after a long stroll through the olive groves of Caromb. You can buy spicy or fruity oil.

At Pépinières Brusset, fig trees have been cultivated for over a 100 years on a 4-hectare estate. Plants in 2 to 3 liter containers up to 20 liter containers are sold there. All the info is on their site, maybe it's an original gift for those who stay at home?
