Fodor's Expert Review La Bastide de Moustiers
Chemin de Quinson, Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, 04360, France Fodor's Choice
Gourmands from around the world flock to this lovely 17th-century bastide, transformed by Alain Ducasse into a luxury country retreat surrounded by olive and chestnut trees, lavender, and trellises filled with the blooms of rose bushes. Individually decorated rooms with evocative names such as Sunflower, Pumpkin, and Buttercup—some with private terrace, some that lead directly into the park—are an unpretentious mixture of antiques and country prints.
