Fodor's Expert Review La Bastide Bleue

Rte. de Sablet, Séguret, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, 84110, France

Once an idyllic youth hostel, this old stone farmhouse with blue-shuttered windows is now an unpretentious but enchanting country inn set in a pine-shaded garden court. Its pretty rooms are done in stone, pine, and stucco, with bright, artisanal-tiled baths. Downstairs is a low-slung dining room with plank tables by a stone fireplace. Breakfast (included) can be enjoyed on a sweet terrace and the €28 dinner menu includes typical regional specialties such as garlic-roasted lamb, duck breast with honey and rosemary, and lavender-scented crème brûlée.

  • garden-lined pool
