The “Bee Room,” in its understated elegance and sleeping three, has subtle colors of mustard, red & green. Decorative accessories include an authentic antique beehive. Its windows open onto the Medieval herb garden. The bathroom has separate sinks, bathtub with shower and hand-drawn custom bee designs on some of the tiles. Cotbeds available on request. At La Verrière, they endeavour to uphold the local tradition of beekeeping, and would be happy to share their enthusiasm on this subject with you should you be interested, or simply ask to taste the honey.

The “Poppy Room”, sleeping two, owes its cheerful ambience to its bright red, white and green décor, and a sunny view of the medieval herb garden beneath its windows. Paintings of flowers and antique parchments adorn the walls. The spacious bathroom has double sinks and a full-sized bathtub with shower. Poppies overtake the fields and vineyard in the Spring and remain a defining aspect of the Provençal landscape. The local variety, papaver somniferum, has long been used for its sleep-inducing virtues.

The “Olive Grove Room” , sleeping up to three, has a warm green and ochre palette. Among its decorative appointments are a rare original olive press and an intimate sitting alcove. The charming bathroom has a single sink, a full-sized bath with shower and a view of the medieval courtyard. The 60+ trees in the olive grove offer some delectably different oils. We like to mix the local Tanche variety of Nyons, known for its delicate flavor, with the more robust and fruity Picholine, Verdale and Salonenque olives to create a balanced flavor. Cotbeds available on request.

The “Sunflower Suite”, sleeping two, on the ground floor, has its own private terrace. The sizeable living room, with a fireplace, accommodates two additional guests on a sleeper sofa. The bedroom, in gold, red and blue, has a four-poster bed, local artwork and a compact shower room. Though Van Gogh sealed the fate of sunflowers as incontrovertible symbols of Provence, their mystique dates back to Greek mythology, when Apollo, God of the Sun, transformed his mistress Clydia into a Helianthus so she would forever turn toward the sun. Worshiped by the Aztecs, the sunflower is a cousin of the Jerusalem artichoke. Every part of the plant has an economic or medicinal use.

The “Lavender Suite”, sleeping up to three, with its south-facing bedroom, looks out onto the vineyards and beyond to the Dentelles de Montmirail mountains. The bedroom, dressed in crisp whites & blues, is fresh and airy. The cozy antechamber, complete with antique lavender distiller, sleeps an additional two persons. The fields are planted mainly with lavandin, known for the purity of its scent. The lavender crop is harvested and distilled in July and its essence used year-round as home fragrance and soothing bath oil. Cotbeds available on request.

The “Hunting Suite”, sleeping up to four, is enhanced by rich colours of the forest and traditional animal prints. The coordinated antechamber sleeps an additional guest in an antique French Bishop’s bed, a well-traveled family heirloom. This room has a footed bath and separate shower. Since the property is located in a nature preserve, guests are spoiled by the abundance of furry & feathered forest fauna – hare, martens and deer, owls, falcons and eagles. But the Lord of the Woods is undeniably the much mythologized Wild Boar. Loathed and loved locally, he is nonetheless the mascot of the area. Cotbeds available on request.

A beautifully restored medieval priory on the slopes of the Dentelles de Montmirail in Provence, La Verriere offers a luxurious and exclusive retreat amidst a sweeping vista of lavender, sunflower fields, and olive groves. Owners Nicole and Xavier Rolet have sensitively restored the property in keeping with local styles, retaining as many original features of the medieval construction as possible. Faded frescoes and exposed stonework are perfectly complemented by more modern touches such as designer furnishings by Chelsea Textiles and Nobilis, creating a calming and comfortable ambience throughout. Outside, a heated infinity pool and Jacuzzi complete the elegant picture.

Wine-lovers are in for a particular treat, as the property is the home of the acclaimed Chêne Bleu Rhone wines. Produced from the biodynamic vineyards surrounding the villa, Nicole and Xavier’s vintages have won awards for their quality, and the hotel even hosts an annual ‘Extreme Wine Course’ featuring internationally-recognised guest speakers and teachers.

For an unforgettable escape in the blissful splendour of the Provençal countryside, La Verriere is available as an exclusive villa rental for groups of up to 17. During the peak summer months (30th June - 26th August), La Verriere is only available to hire in its entirety and for a minimum 7-night stay running Saturday to Saturday.

Dining
La Verriere has a fully-equipped professional kitchen, and if you’re renting the whole place the team can arrange for a private chef to cater to all of your culinary whims. Meals can be enjoyed al fresco or in the grand surroundings of the medieval dining room with its stone arches and roaring fireplace. Needless to say, lunch and dinner are best accompanied by a selection from La Verriere’s excellent cellar, and wine-tasting sessions can be arranged.
For stays during April, May, June, October or November, bed and breakfast is available. On warmer days breakfast is served buffet-style by the pool, or if the weather isn't playing ball, inside. If you're heading out to explore the region, ask in advance and a tasty picnic can be prepared to take with you. Or for those preferring to relax on-site, book into the Winery Wing terrace for lunch. Come evening, a table d'hôte menu is offered, featuring the likes of roast guinea fowl with mushroom and onion sauce, baby spinach and potato dauphinoise, and apple tarte tatin with vanilla ice-cream and rhubarb compote.

Accommodation
La Verriere’s 4 suites and 3 double guestrooms can accommodate up to 17 guests in luxurious comfort. The elegant interiors are inspired by the culture, landscape and colours of Provence. Gorgeous Frette linens and silk duvets ensure a good night’s sleep, while en-suite bathrooms are equipped with powerful showers and Marius Fabre smellies.

Activities
Kick back and let your troubles wash away at La Verriere. Relax on the sun-kissed patio or in the picturesque gardens; the heated infinity pool is perfect for a refreshing dip in-between sunbathing sessions. And there's an outdoor Jacuzzi if you fancy a longer, more luxurious soak. The villa has a fully-equipped gym for those that want to keep up with their fitness routines. Enjoy a few friendly games on the floodlit tennis court, or do as the locals do during the sultry afternoons with a game of pétanque.

Further afield, the surrounding countryside is ideal for nature-lovers. Hike through nearby lush fields and mountainous crags, or take to your bike for a chance to pedal famed Mount Ventoux, which makes up part of the Tour de France. Rock climbing is available too, in the Dentelles de Montmirail. If you’re after a spot of local colour, the nearby market town of Vaison-la-Romaine offers a quintessential Provençal experience with its fascinating Roman ruins and bustling farmers’ market.
