Hélène and Stéphane, owners
Our passion for cycling
Cycling is part of our daily life, and we love riding through the roads and trails of the region. We discovered this area by exploring its small country roads on our bikes. When we began searching for a place to bring our project to life, we chose Domaine Daulone because we dreamed of a starting point from which our guests could enjoy beautiful nature routes, accessible directly from the estate. The domain sits at the edge of an extraordinary playground, surrounded by the hills, paths, and mountains of the Baronnies Provençales and Mont Ventoux. We are delighted to share it with you and to make your two-wheel adventures as enjoyable as possible!
