This hotel-restaurant in Provence, which can also become simply a great place for family life to meet up with family and friends, is an exceptional nugget hidden in a green setting.

Pagnol's Provence, with its undulating hills and fragrant scrubland, make you dream?

Are you passionate about the rich history of this Vaucluse region, with its prestigious papal past and that of the Knights Templar?

Does the typical architecture of the South of France delight you?

Then this is the place for you! It happily combines all these aspects that make it a unique, immediately endearing place in which you want to invest yourself to share its natural and built beauty, the tranquility and charm that emanate from it, with as many people as possible.

First of all, there is the location: ideally located, close to the major tourist sites, between Ventoux and Monts de Vaucluse, about ten kilometres from Isle-sur-Sorgue, accessible in 45 minutes from the Avignon TGV station and just over an hour from Marseille-Provence airport, it is a secret establishment, because it is nestled in the hollow of a valley surrounded by woods and scrubland, in the countryside.

The view is exceptional: facing the Ventoux, it is truly emblematic of the Provençal landscapes. On a plot of 18732 m², majestic trees including a remarkable 350-year-old lime tree, old oaks, olive, almond, apple, cherry and apricot trees, dry stone walls opening onto a small lake, a meadow, a courtyard, a swimming pool area, a bowling alley, terraces and courtyards for the restaurant and rooms...

This natural area highlights the imposing Templar building of more than 400 m2 of living space, the construction of which extends from the twelfth to the nineteenth centuries. The owners passionately restored the building in 2012, and today its tall dry-stone facades flanked by a seventeenth-century tower, impress with their beauty, magnified by the presence of green arbours, rose bushes and huge cypresses.

The enclosed courtyard leads to a 58 m2 dining room adjoining the 45 m2 kitchen. The large fireplace, exposed beams and small-paned windows make it a warm place, a generous inn where you can come with pleasure to share festive moments with family or friends.

12 bedrooms with shower rooms are spread over the 3 wings of the building. Spacious, some of them offer pretty lounge or office areas, others terraces or small courtyards...

Each room, from the standard double to the family suite, is unique in its layout and layout.

A charming single-storey building in the middle of the garden has been converted into a library-games room... a large room of 72 m2 opening onto the garden, where you can dream, read, discuss or play board games.

Two independent single-storey houses, located away from the main building, make it possible to envisage housing for managers and employees or additional residences to rent.

The first of about 84 M2 has a living room of 23 M2, 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, an office and a room currently used as a linen room.

The second, with a surface area of 32 M2, adjoins the first and includes a bedroom with its bathroom and dressing room with the hotel's linen room as an annex.

Next to these modern and functional houses are a garage of 33M2 and two outbuildings of 39 and 104 M2. All the buildings total about 800m2 of which about 600m2 are habitable.

This establishment has the Erp category 5 classification and benefits from a loyal French and foreign clientele. Renowned for its cuisine and its setting, the restaurant is one of the best local addresses and the hotel attracts a clientele of stayers, who come there to rest in an enchanting setting, combining simplicity, flavor, friendliness and quality of welcome.
