Relaxing stay at la Bastide de Moustiers

A two-day escape to the heart of Provence will delight all your senses. Take advantage of our Relaxing and Gastronomic stay and discover the refined atmosphere at the Bastide de Moustiers, its delicious Provençale cuisine and the relaxing pleasure of personalised Ayurvedic massages. In a unique setting, not far from the Gorges du Verdon, so you can enjoy an exceptional weekend!

It was in 1994 that Alain Ducasse, on a motorcycle ride over the back roads of Provence, first quoted this bastide rising up out of the fields of lavender and olive trees. He made it his first port and his home before deciding to open it up for others to enjoy. This house still holds a very special place in his heart. The passing years have made Bastide de Moustiers even more beautiful. A few delightful rooms, the vegetable garden, the grounds, pool, and the silence… In the restaurant, Christophe Martin’s inspired cuisine will win your heart. Enjoy the salt coated brandade, toast with a hint of garlic and field greens, the fresh goat cheese tart, lightly braised apricots – the most honest, simple cuisine.

Relax with an Ayurvedic massage to rebalance and revitalise your senses. By purifying the body, improving the flow of energy, eliminating tension and fatigue, this traditional Indian massage technique contributes to relaxation of the body, inner harmony and fulfilment of the soul.

Leave your unique weekend retreat relaxed and soothed.

- 2 nights in a double bedroom
