ArchitectureThe over 400 year old manor is a typical building for the Camargue: the manor house is in the middle. Barn with bread oven, workshop with smithy and stable were converted into a hotel in 1994. Unplastered stone facades, sandstone floors and roof beams characterize the building. In the Camargue, houses were traditionally only built with what the earth had to offer. The stone from which the "Mas" was built comes from local quarries. Even today, all renovation work is carried out exclusively by local craftsmen. In keeping with the typical Camargue farm, the design is simple but elegant. Each room is individually decorated and has its own charm. The junior suites all have a private terrace, some with a fireplace, others with a living area. Overall, there is a warm and friendly atmosphere. The small hotel is furnished like a private house. The eight rooms in the main building are cozy and comfortable, often with exposed wooden beams. The independent junior suites have an independent entrance and their design combines modernity with tradition. Wine and wisteria provide shade on the terrace in front of the restaurant. Most of the furniture was found from antique dealers.

FoodTomatoes, zucchini, eggplants, practically all vegetables come from the farm garden, chickens from the farm's own stables, and the beef comes from our own farm and the organic rice from our own farm. The Camargue provides the other ingredients: from salt to fish and AOC Camargue oysters. Authentic local dishes are served from these delicious ingredients in the charming kitchen-cum-living room, which serves as a restaurant. In the evening there is no menu, but a single menu with fresh Provencal seasonal ingredients. Slow Food? In the Camargue, time stands still either way ... A recommendation is the beef fillet from the own farm, as well as the red and black rice from the farm is an absolute must for gourmets. Guests are asked to inform the hosts about specific food requests or restrictions. The chef will be happy to prepare a vegetarian or vegan menu on request.
