THE STORY: The English artist and poet Corinne Aivazian transformed this mansion (built in 1750) into a community residency for contemporary artists, along with a bed & breakfast. In addition to the common spaces with their very mix & match sense of décor (a gigantic living/dining room, a spectacular country kitchen, a terrace with daybeds and vintage armchairs, a Majorelle blue wall), Maison Salvadore boasts two suites (one with two bedrooms) and a double bedroom. Taking her inspiration from the space itself, Corinne restored the original fireplaces and embellished its patina with vintage furniture, ad hoc lamps, lace canopy bed curtains and hand-dyed sheets, livening it all up with artwork, dried flowers, magazines and records…. Double rooms starting at €65 a night.
