A life of luxury
Set in a very peaceful setting, discover the splendid French garden, the views of Mont Ventoux, and don’t miss the majestic 400-year-old Lebanese cedar. You’ll be welcomed by Paul and Emma in this prestigious setting.
Each room has its own story and unique decor. The charm of Provence shines through in the tapestries, period furniture, and carefully selected decorative items.
In the morning, enjoy a delicious Provençal breakfast with fresh, local produce. It is served on the beautiful sunny terrace or in the dining room with its hand-painted walls. On the menu: juices and nectars supplied by local farmers, seasonal jams, delicious honey produced by a beekeeper from Roquemaure, bread and croissants from the village baker, and seasonal fruits.
The castle's stunning outdoor pool is one of the hotel's most popular features. Nestled in the heart of its vast green garden, it is open in season and lined with sun loungers and parasols. Here, you can relax with a glass of Côtes du Rhône wine from the neighboring estate and admire the view of Mont Ventoux and the Luberon.
