What they say
Two Michelin Keys
Michelin
its interiors are surprisingly contemporary, its rooms exhibiting a stylish visual simplicity and a contrast between their antique architectural details and their very modern furniture.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked into the hamlet of Combes, the grounds offer a secluded base between the medieval streets of Uzès and Avignon.
The rooms
High ceilings and parquet floors frame minimalist furnishings, accented by custom silk wall panels and views of the surrounding park.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated outdoor pool is bordered by wooden decking and sun loungers under mature parkland trees.
Tennis and grounds
An outdoor tennis court sits amid the greenery, alongside complimentary bicycles and trails winding through the private grounds.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Michelin-starred Le Cèdre de Montcaud serves tasting menus in the converted stables, and the bistro opens onto a leafy terrace.
How it began

Silk merchant Alexandre Eugène Collain established the estate in 1848, creating romantic landscaped grounds with a historic grotto and rose gardens.
