Why Provence Is a Secret Winter Escape

While most people think of Provence as a summer destination, those who visit in winter discover something entirely different – and perhaps even more magical.
 From December to February, the light softens, the air turns crisp, and the hills around Bargemon take on a quiet charm that feels almost timeless.

Here, mornings begin slowly. You wake to clear skies and the sound of church bells echoing through the old village. The cafés are open, but never crowded. Locals greet each other at the market, and the olive groves shimmer silver in the low winter sun.

It’s the season of fireplaces, long walks, and true relaxation. Without the summer crowds, you have the small museums, vineyards, and nearby villages almost to yourself.
Day trips are perfect this time of year – drive to the coast for lunch in Saint-Raphaël, visit Fayence or Seillans, or simply wander through Bargemon’s narrow streets and enjoy the stillness.

Back at Mullers Bed and Breakfast, evenings invite you to slow down.
Our old stone house keeps its warmth, and a glass of local wine tastes even better when shared by candlelight.

If you’ve ever dreamt of seeing Provence as the locals do – peaceful, authentic, and full of gentle light – winter might just be the best time to come.
