About the host
Hosted by Charles and Annick Speth

We have been living in Haute Provence since 2002. Over the years we have refurbished a few ancient houses which we have converted into comfortable holiday homes. You can visit all of them on our websites www.vieil-aiglun.com, www.les-silves.fr and www.maison-moustiers.fr. And of course feel free to contact us for any additional information. See you soon!
