Ferme le Pavillon

Stepping away from the buzz of the French Riviera, just an hour away from the Gorges du Verdon, sits this former farmhouse, comprising two 250-year-old stone buildings that overlook the mountains. It's a place where styles converge, blending the history of the place and the contemporary Danish style infused by its owners. Usually operating as a guesthouse, it transforms delightfully into an upgraded holiday home offering daily local cuisine (including lunch and dinner on 5 days per week, and breakfast served daily), prepared with special care. To sweeten the deal, a top-notch trampoline, a playhouse for the kids, and a pet-friendly environment welcome entire family gatherings within its 6 rooms: 4 doubles, 1 family room, and 1 suite - including two rooms equipped for reduced mobility access.

Since the 1960s, the farm has served as a secluded holiday retreat for a handful of couples. Today, Ferme le Pavillon is intricately woven with the tale of Teis and Christel, a story starting in 2018 when the adventurous spirit of the Danish couple led them, along with their two children, to depart Copenhagen in pursuit of a new chapter. Taking ownership of the property in January 2019, they faced the ambitious task of renovating the entire house within a brief window until July 1st.

They redefined its purpose, transitioning from a solitary holiday refuge into a vibrant guesthouse. This presented an unparalleled opportunity for Teis, a trained chef who, due to life's twists, had never practiced his culinary skills and later regretted not pursuing a career in the kitchen. Today, he unveils his cuisine, focusing on the flavors of the finest local and organic products: the herbs from the garden, vegetables sourced from nearby farms, and premium-quality meat and fish procured through ethical practices - offering yet another compelling reason to savor the essence of Ferme le Pavillon.
