Le Pavillon de Galon, just outside the Luberon village of Cucuron, is a lovingly restored 18th-century hunting lodge surrounded by 15 acres of orchards and gardens.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A ten-minute walk leads into historic Cucuron, with its celebrated village pond, local bistros, and protected Luberon countryside.
The rooms
Three suites feature Italian design pieces and eclectic art, with the Grand Suite opening to Luberon mountain panoramas.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Natural spring water fills the heated infinity pool, edged with wooden sundecks and lawns of ornamental grasses.
Dogs stay too.
How it began
Photographer Guy Hervais and writer Bibi Gex transformed this late eighteenth-century hunting lodge, cultivating award-winning botanical gardens across the historic estate.
