Rooms
The bright, light-flooded rooms and suites here are all different yet quite spacious. Elegantly refined yet understated, they are styled with a palette of neutral tones and feature crisp linens set against wooden floors, and have views looking out over the pool, the park or the forest dotted with cedar trees. Modern conveniences such as Wi-Fi, televisions, and air conditioning come as standard here, while the roomy bathrooms feature large walk-in showers or separate baths or both.
Location
The Domaine de Fontenille is in the heart of Provence in the Luberon region to the east of Avignon. The property provides an oasis for relaxation but you can also take a 10 to 15 minute drive to the nearby hilltop village of Lourmarin to explore the meandering cobbled streets dotted with restaurants and boutiques covered in creeping vines. Some of Provence’s most renowned sites are also in the Lubéron region, including the hilltop village of Gordes and the Abbey de Sénaque.
Food and drink
The Domaine de Fontenille is home to two restaurants both serving creative cuisine made with local produce. The more upscale of the two, Le Champ des Lunes, boasts a Michelin star and the other, La Cuisine d’Amélie is a bistro-style eatery with a large outdoor terrace known locally for its views over the countryside. We recommend coming here to have an aperitif and take in the sunset over the landscape of the Lubéron.
Families
There are a variety of animals onsite such as lambs, chickens and donkeys, and there is also a farm experience on offer where you can pick fresh fruit.
Facilities and activities
This property is home to an art gallery which showcases local art and photography. There is also a heated swimming pool and semi-electric bikes available to rent. In the summer, yoga is available as well as, on some nights, outdoor movies and jazz evenings.
