France PROVENCE - Salon-de-Provence

Abbaye de Ste. Croix ☆☆☆☆

A magnificent 12th century abbey with glorious views set amidst gardens of lavender and rosemary. Lovingly restored and transformed into a character hotel where tranquillity and spiritual repose live on. The bedrooms are unique, each created from a monk’s cell. The restaurant is famed for its imaginative cuisine and dining is outside in summer. Swimming pool. Avignon and Arles are within a half-hour drive.
