What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
La Fenière as no mere restaurant or lodging but a Place of Life, pursuing health, environmental stewardship, education, and all manner of human flourishing...
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set between the villages of Cadenet and Lourmarin, the grounds are flanked by Luberon vineyards, quiet country lanes, and limestone hills.
The rooms
Minimalist interiors blend rustic textures with local craft details, each opening onto views of the surrounding orchard, gardens, or pool.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Two outdoor pools sit among the gardens and olive trees, bordered by wooden decking and sun loungers.
Restaurant
Bistrot La Cour de Ferme
Tables sit in the farmstead courtyard under reed pergolas and string lights, serving seasonal dishes harvested from the garden.
At the table
Under groin-vaulted ceilings and paper lanterns, the dining room serves chef Nadia Sammut's gluten-free and dairy-free tasting menus.
How it began
Founded as a family farmstead in 1975, the estate has evolved across three generations into an organic agricultural retreat.
