Hotel and restaurant in the country. This beautiful stone farmhouse, so typical of the Provençal landscape, is located on the Luberon hills between the famous villages of Gordes and Roussillon. The Phébus & Spa–Villa des Anges hotel occupies a historic site whose origins date back to the Knights of the Order of Malta. From the light-colored walls to the ocher of the tiles, the changing hues of the pines and olive trees and the blue of the panoramic swimming pool, a true symphony of colors welcomes guests into the soft light of Provence. In the gourmet restaurant of this family-owned property, Chef Xavier Mathieu prepares regional produce–including vegetables cultivated on site–which diners can enjoy at the Table du Jardinier. This exclusive dining spot, located directly in the kitchen garden, is the ideal spot to sample specialties like vegetable pesto, basil and garlic soup. A similar sense of authenticity can be found in the spa, where treatments and massages use essential oils from the surrounding lavender fields. ... Learn moreless

La Tour Philippe, whose crenellated top stands out above the tree tops, was built in 1888 in the heart of the splendid Cedar Forest by a slightly crazy artist who wanted to "see the sea". Unfortunately, Philippe Audibert died before his tower was high enough to fulfill his dream. It is not open to the...

Hotel and restaurant in the country. In the heart of the Luberon Regional Nature Park, stop and enjoy a break at Domaine de Fontenille. Worthy of a novel by Giono or Pagnol, this mansion wrapped in cedars and century-old olive trees is a celebration of the charm and magnetism of the Provençal countryside, the perfect setting to experience French art de vivre. Elegantly combining period details and craftsmanship, the property’s decor draws inspiration as much from family homes full of keepsakes as from the contemporary art centre in its former cellar — original works adorn the nineteen rooms and suites overlooking the park, which include an old wash house converted into a romantic little den. Le Champ des Lunes, the Michelin-starred restaurant of chef Michel Marini, adds to the magic of this place, as do the spa and the centuries-old vineyard and kitchen garden that are open to the public. ...
