Domaine De Fontenille

Set in the rolling hills of the Luberon near the village of Lauris, Domaine de Fontenille is an 18th-century Provençal estate transformed into a refined countryside retreat. Surrounded by vineyards, olive trees, and landscaped parkland, it offers an elegant yet relaxed escape that blends wine, gastronomy, nature, and contemporary art. The hotel features 21 individually designed rooms and suites, mixing historic character with modern comfort. Large windows overlook the gardens and vines, interiors balance antique accents with clean lines, and each room includes thoughtful amenities such as coffee stations, minibars, and premium bedding. From compact rooms to spacious family suites, the estate offers accommodation suited for couples, families, and longer stays. Domaine de Fontenille is also an active organic winery, producing expressive wines that reflect the sun-filled terroir of Provence. Guests can visit the cellars, enjoy guided tastings, and join workshops that explore regional grape varieties and biodynamic practices. Wine is central to the experience, not just an added feature. Dining emphasizes seasonal produce sourced from the estate’s own gardens. With a fine-dining experience and a more informal outdoor venue, the culinary offering showcases Provençal flavors through ingredients grown on-site and paired harmoniously with the estate’s wines. The property promotes rest and wellbeing through spa treatments, a heated outdoor pool shaded by olive trees, art exhibitions, and outdoor activities such as yoga and walking trails. It also serves as a scenic venue for weddings and private events, offering both intimate garden settings and refined indoor spaces. Located within the Luberon Regional Nature Park, the estate is a convenient base for exploring nearby villages, markets, and cycling or hiking routes through lavender fields and vineyards. Domaine de Fontenille combines rural authenticity with understated luxury, offering a serene gateway into the heart of Provence.
