The Oak Dome
The large family dome at the foot of the oaks, with a mezzanine for the children and a view of the rising Moon.
To the east, between the oak trunks, you watch the Moon rise and, in autumn, the Pleiades cluster.
The Oak Dome is the largest on the site and the most sheltered: it leans against a grove of oaks, the very trees behind the reputation of Mont Ventoux truffles.
The children sleep on the mezzanine, just under the glazed triangles. The parents have the big round window facing east, from which you watch the Moon rise behind the hills.
The dome comes with two pairs of binoculars, one of them lighter for small hands, and an observing notebook to fill in during your stay.
