Le Val

Le Val is set along a long, thin valley, between two hill chains crowned with pines and maquis. The village harbours a fine Romanesque church and clock tower topped with a delicately-worked wrought iron bell tower. Its tender pink roofs and faded old facades are set against the green, winding backdrop of the river and a checkerboard of vineyards, olive groves and gardens, interspersed with pretty bastides.
