A 16th-Century Convent's Step Back in Time
We love the old-world feel and bohemian vibe here. There’s a great long-ago hidden identity and history that has not been overpowered by modern intrusion. A truly peaceful and creative approach to village life.
The long history of this residence is evident the moment you lay eyes on it. Built in the 16th century and home at one time to both a travelers' hotel and convent, it retains its historic character and has become a relaxing and artistic sanctuary.
The Artist Convent is nestled within the lower floor of this magnificent building, a deceptively spacious, light-filled apartment that's a relaxing and lovingly restored hideaway. With soaring beamed ceilings and a spacious and bright layout, the colorful accents, polished concrete floors and discreet contemporary touches bring a fresh modern spirit. Using local materials and influences, along with great personal and classic French style, the effect is one of the beauty of imperfection, from where you'll enjoy views of the ancient leafy courtyard and the village.
Simple and rustic, this is a great find -- a step back in time and a chic little hideaway from which to enjoy the French countryside.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Communal BBQ, ping pong table, bicycles and laundry facilities.
