THE STORY: In a bucolic setting along the banks of the Haute Meuse River, the Domaine des Sorbiers will leave you speechless: a series of sumptuous residences, tucked away in a still-virgin 17-hectare forest, now run by the Nouvelle Hôtellerie group. After exploring nature all day long, recharge your batteries in one of the 30 simple but well-designed bedrooms, bathed in natural light and spaced out between the historic Castel and the Palladio (light hardwood floors, adjoining bathrooms, views of the river. FYI: the Maison Blanche gîte can also be privatized, and for the most adventurous among you, why not sleep in the estate’s unusual accommodations, those beautiful tents scattered about here and there, for an unforgettable night under the stars… A picture-perfect vacation! Double rooms starting at €75 a night. // Mado Réassouet
TOILETRIES: Eco-friendly soap and shampoo.
BREAKFAST: An all-you-can-eat buffet (€14, kids €7.50) with coffee or tea, fruit juices, viennoiseries, bread, jam, cheeses…
LITTLE LUXURY: Let yourself get carried downstream on one of the estate’s kayaks, then paddle over to the tiny Androssart island to explore its luxurious flora and fauna.
