Le Vallon
An old house tucked away in a peaceful wine-growing valley, with a veranda that lets you enjoy nature at any time of day — and even gaze at the stars from indoors.
Everything about Le Vallon suggests the perfect hideaway for a couple seeking peace, independence and an authentic, slightly old-fashioned way of life. Autumn and winter bring their own pleasures, while spring and summer offer a completely different experience.
The freedom of a private guest house, with the warmth of a hosted stay.
It is also an inspiring house and writing studio, ideal for a creative residency.
