NUMBER OF ROOMS: 4 rooms, 1 cabin, 3 cottages
CLOSED ANNUALLY: From January 5th to March 31, 2019

THE STORY: Between the branches of the estate’s most beautiful tree (15 hectares in central Luberon, planted with oaks where truffles grow at the roots, lavender and olive trees), Cathy built a big luxury cabin for two, installed “without screws or bolts” so as to leave the branches and the trunk of the tree completely unharmed! Wake up in the sky and enjoy, from the terrace, a sublime view of the leafy hills of the petit Luberon, while waiting for coffee that they bring up to you in a basket. The “traditional” whitewashed rooms of the farmhouse aren’t bad either. On the program, between two bouts of laziness by the pool: walks through the fortified village of Bonnieux, a nap in the hammock under the olive trees, golf in Saumane, and, upon a simple request, competition-level massages for a relaxing moment in your room or in the vegetal refuge (starting at €80). Rooms for two from €170 to €230, cabin (for two) from €220 to €295, three nights minimum. Cottages for two, from €980 to €1,850 for a weekly rental only.

TOILETRIES: Artisanal products from the Bormes-les-Mimosas savonnerie; little lavender soaps and body wash, green tea shampoo…
INTERNET: Wifi (free).
BREAKFAST: “Royal provençal” included, with products from the region, goat cheese, fresh bread and croissants, charcuterie, oranges to juice yourself (only for the rooms. You can ask for a breakfast if you stay in the cabin or in a cottage – €12 per person and per day).
MINI-BAR: No, but there is a bottle of mineral water in the rooms.
LITTLE LUXURY: Upon reservation, Cathy will organize a cooking class on Saturdays with the chef Eric Sapet at the restaurant La Petite Maison.
