We live here most of the year. As to your agenda, been there done that.. The non cyclists rented a car and carried our stuff. Car served as the sagmobile.. It went well. Our tour was the Loire and Normandy also in June.. You'll be in Provence. That is quite popular and cycling is incredible.
The peak season is August and it's impossible. Be too hot there in August anyway..
. I think You'll nave no problems with b and b's.. On our tours, b and b's are friendly, reasonable and usually far more bike friendly.. I would say , even in June on weekends I'd have reservations in advance . Provence is always popular.
Want to plan some great rides.. I'd suggest you get "Lonely Planets' , Cycling France. " some great rides and they give you some background as to where you'll be riding. Check out the Luberon Valley in the region known as "Vauclause," for an excellent location..Both in terms of your riding and your wife's proximity to interesting and scenic attractions... Good luck.
