Duel of Angels

Treat yourself to an absolutely unique stay at a home which traces its history all the way back to 1365 – originally a convent, this beautiful place is now converted into a comfortable and charming abode. Located on top of a hill, with sprawling views of the picturesque village of Barbentane and the surrounding Provencal countryside, arriving at the home you’ll immediately feel transported to another time. And while there is no shortage of period charm here, do not worry about missing the conveniences of modernity – the home manages to retain its historic character while also boasting a range of luxurious features. Step through the front door and let yourself be wowed by the old-school ambience, with stone walls, wooden beams supporting the ceiling, and a huge fireplace promising cosy warmth. We love the tasteful and lovingly selected furnishings and unique art pieces to be found in each room – it is clear the host loves this home and wants to share it with his guests. Get inspired by the bright country-style kitchen and create delicious French feasts, to be enjoyed by the whole party at the opulent dining table. After a restful night of sweet dreams, courtesy of the plush and comfy bedrooms, step out onto the terrace with a cup of freshly brewed coffee and admire the stunning vistas around you. There is also plenty to be enjoyed in the area: from the village of Barbentane on your doorstep and the lovely county trails to the historic city of Avignon with its Papal Palace just a five-minute drive away.
