Rather than a converted château, this is an authentic rural domain where 18th-century architecture coexists with contemporary hospitality, giving weddings a grounded, authentic Provençal character.

Very nice location surrounded by lavanda fields. The rooms are clean and the hosts do the best to satisfy your needs. The place is far from all services but you have many solutions for trekking, cycling and horsing
