庭院宾馆

In a wine-producing village, this picturesque stone house, whose terrace overlooks a small square shaded by ancient plane trees, is the quintessence of rural France. Supremely fresh ingredients that celebrate Provence are deftly assembled into flavoursome recipes: squid, wild garlic, morels and green peas; saddle of Alpilles lamb, green asparagus and smoked eel… The wine cellar is a treasure trove of surprises, including the wines by the glass. Delivers the goods every time!

Laurent Azoulay cooks up Provençal cuisine channelling the spirit of a local bistro: beautiful stuffed tomatoes, Camargue rice with Nyons olives; Provençal-style pieds et paquets (mutton tripe and feet), mashed potatoes with olive oil. The fragrant, carefully prepared dishes are full of character, and some are cooked in the wood-burning oven of the open kitchen. The space has a contemporary bistro-style aesthetic; on sunny days, nab a table on the shaded terrace in the village square. Guestrooms are available for overnight stays.

Locally grown tomatoes and fruit, Ventoux spelt and pork: the chef hits the spot every time courtesy of modern recipes rich in Provençal accents, like baked croaker paired with fennel in aioli and a foamy bisque or a cassolette of gambas and squid. Excellent value for money and a knock-out view of the Ouvèze from the spacious contemporary dining room.

A stone's throw from the Roman bridge, at the foot of the medieval town, the chef cooks up market-fresh cuisine. In tune with the seasons, it is often Provençal, and occasionally peppered with Italian or Mexican influences. To be enjoyed on the terrace when the weather is mild. A lovely place to sample dishes that are rich in flavours!

With its atmosphere blending rustic charm (exposed stones, painted wooden furniture) and modern touches (contemporary paintings), this restaurant has bags of character. In the kitchen, chef Sylvain Fernandes prepares fresh ingredients in a subtle celebration of the flavours of the South of France. Extremely courteous service provided by Sylvia, the chef's wife!
