In the heart of the Luberon Regional Natural Park, nestled among the serene Vaucluse mountains, lies the enchanting village of Gordes. Offering the perfect escape into the great outdoors, this picturesque destination promises a holiday away from it all. Recently crowned the “most beautiful village in the world” by the esteemed American travel magazine Travel+Leisure, Gordes is the epitome of a Provencal hilltop village.

Gordes owes much of its allure to the many artists who once flocked to its cobblestone streets, drawn by its timeless charm. Paying homage to this rich artistic heritage, Gordes Retreat offers an immersive in/outdoor artistic journey. The property is adorned with around forty works of art, themed around optical and kinetic art, creating an ever-evolving visual experience.

Inside, the retreat is a treasure trove of objects discovered at Provencal flea markets, alongside stunning pieces that play with movement, light, verticality, and optical effects. At the entrance, Gaultier Rimbault-Joffard’s blue portal breathes life into light and matter. On the expansive terrace, young artists from Atelier Felicita, in collaboration with Sonia Rinaldi, pay tribute to Vasarely with a unique orientation table.

For those seeking peace, privacy, and the most breathtaking views of Gordes, Gordes Retreat is a sanctuary. Embodying the essence of Provence in its purest form, the retreat showcases meticulous craftsmanship, local materials, and a singular interpretation of the Provençal art of living. Designed in collaboration with the renowned interior architect Jérémie du Chaffaut, a native of Provence, the décor reflects a passionate and authentic approach.

The accommodation is spread across several buildings, making it ideal for families and groups. With an outdoor playground and a host of family-friendly amenities, Gordes Retreat ensures comfort and enjoyment for all ages.

The retreat features seven comfortable bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom and unique design, spread across three separate buildings:

  • Main House: 4 rooms
  • Additional Buildings: 2 double rooms and 1 family suite (comprising 1 double room and a kids’ room with 2 bunk beds)

 

At Gordes Retreat, every detail has been thoughtfully crafted to offer an unparalleled Provencal experience, blending art, nature, and the timeless beauty of one of the world’s most stunning villages.

The Luberon region of Provence is famous the world over for its outstanding natural beauty, with craggy limestone hills, olive groves and forested valleys but above all for the numerous beautiful medieval hilltop villages.

Built on the foothills of the Monts of Vaucluse, facing the Luberon, Gordes is one of the most well-known hilltop villages in the region, and one of the most beautiful in France.

So often described, photographed and admired… the village owes its aura to the illustrious artists who once revealed it and to its ability to embody the soul of the Provence that we love.
