“A luxury hotel on the edge of a forest. Fairytale rooms have grown up charm with romantic drapes, gilded mirrors and lovely bathrooms. Indoor and outdoor pool, terrace, top of the range spa, and pretty gardens. Outstanding French cuisine and an elegant bar. The ultimate in peaceful luxury. ”

Hotel review

Manicured lawns lead to a stone terrace with understated iron furniture and fresh flowers in this French hotel. The grounds contain a small golf course, tennis court, and on the edge, a large pine forest for taking strolls and picnics. Two pools await you, one indoors for those who like to lap, and outdoor for the more relaxed swimmer. An extensive list of spa treatments is available; the massages are fabulous. Continuing the theme of pairs, there are two restaurants on site. One is Michelin starred Monte Christo, the other is slightly more informal San Felice. Both excellent, and the dining room atmosphere is truly lovely. Plenty of glamorous areas within the hotel to relax, and in the evening the gazebos within the grounds light up to complete the fairytale stay.
