Flying children!



Noah and Peter ~ no parachute needed!

 Year after year, the pool remains a huge draw for grown-ups and children alike.  Whether it's to cool off after a day spend exploring the nearby villages and lavender fields, or whether you fancy spending an entire day resting in one of our lounge-chairs, the pool is where everything happens at La Petite Gardette in the summer. 

The pool deck offers plenty of space for everyone to enjoy some privacy, and the surrounding trees and awning provide are a shady alternative for those needing a break from the sun (temps got to 39 celsius just yesterday!).

Max, Nina and Clara - big splash coming up!

The deep-end of the pool is surrounded by massive rocks and a wall on both sides.  The water there is over 6ft deep, making it the perfect spot to practice your diving (or cannon-ball!) skills.  The rocks are a good way up, but the wall is the perfect hight for our younger guests.

It's fun to watch as games get invented and played out.  Last year one game had kids jumping off while acting out Harry Potter characters that the grown-ups had to guess.  This year, as Harry delves deeper and deeper into the dark side of adolescence (when Harry takes off his shirt and is, well, hairy, I say it's time to move on!) I'm lobbying for a shift to the Kung Fu Panda II cast:)
