“This beautifully appointed guesthouse sits in Monteil overlooking the Cevennes mountains. Set in a converted farmhouse, interiors focus on natural materials, with exposed brick and flagstone creating a rustic yet elegant feel. Admire the country views from the refreshing salt-water pool.”

La Maison Papillons

Once a crumbling ruin in the picture-perfect hamlet of Monteil, this former farmhouse was painstakingly restored into a rustic-chic hideaway by artist Olivier and his design-savvy wife, Caroline. The couple spent a year living off-grid in a forest while they built walls, tended to the gardens and sourced furniture, and the result is simply breathtaking; the love that has gone into this restoration can be felt throughout.
