What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Across from L'Isle-Adam's golf course is this interpretation of a traditional farm building, designed by Jean-Michel Wilmotte.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The Carnelle forest borders the fairways, and central Paris is less than an hour to the south.

The rooms
Every room opens onto a private terrace facing either the golf fairways or the quiet forest.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Sun loungers and parasols line the 15-metre heated outdoor pool, tucked behind neat green hedges.
The spa and gym
Beside treatment suites using Cinq Mondes products, the spa pairs a sauna and hammam with a fireside whirlpool.
Restaurant
Le Piaf
A stone hearth warms the vaulted timber dining room, and dishes draw on produce from the on-site kitchen garden.
How it began

The estate takes its name from the lapwings that inhabit this patch of countryside beside the Carnelle forest.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
