A View at night

La Bastide du Haut is light, everywhere are lovely kilim rugs and pieces brought back from the owners’ travels - fine old wooden chests, antique wardrobes, paintings, books. La Bastide du Bas has vaulted ceilings, two of which cover a pair of dark, enfolding bedrooms lifted by pretty stitched bedcovers. La Bastide du Haut et La Bastide du Bas connect by an inside staircase if you wish. They each have their seperate entrances and terraces if you wish to be independant. La Guest House is independant and adjacent.

A well-restored place, much loved by the creative, colour-conscious family who have owned it for 50 years, it has  two of everything: sitting rooms with fireplaces, kitchens (one outside), one terrace for privacy and peace, another for joyous gatherings. Inside, history speaks through several levels and thick old walls (some say it was the local Merovingian castle).

Two great old houses converted for gentle family living, linked by an inside staircase as well as terraces outside: ideal for one family of 4/5 or two families/group of frinds sharing (from 4 to 14). La Bastide has been created to accommodate for friendly and family gatherings.
