About this place
At the foot of Mont Ventoux, not far from the magnificent town of Vaison la Romaine, this place steeped in history is unique: a former 12th-century Benedictine priory, it still bears the characteristic marks of its past and was also the home of a renowned French novelist in the late 20th century. Its transformation over the centuries has preserved all its character and charm, respecting the ancient stones. The spirit of the place is unparalleled, with a distinctly Provencal feel. The priory, which stands on approximately 5,000m2 of land, rises proudly atop a small promontory, allowing it to dominate its surroundings in the midst of a green theatre of absolute calm and tranquillity. With a total surface area of approximately 540m2, the priory currently offers the following interior layout as part of a thriving charming bed and breakfast business: A private area with a large kitchen with a fireplace, a small lounge opening onto a terrace overlooking the pool area with a beautiful view. There is also a utility room and a laundry room. Upstairs: two bedrooms - one with a terrace - sharing a bathroom. An office and a dressing room. A reception area comprising a beautiful entrance hall, a large lounge with cathedral ceiling and fireplace insert (the former chapel), five bedrooms with shower rooms and toilets, a meeting room opening onto a large terrace, and a rooftop terrace. Finally, there is a boiler/storage room. Independently accessible from the outside: two bedrooms with shower rooms and toilets. A gite with bedroom/living room, kitchen, shower room and laundry room. A total of 10 bedrooms and 9 shower rooms. The landscaped grounds surrounding the priory feature beautiful mature trees native to the region, providing shade in various places and lending a sense of majesty to the site, a true haven of peace conducive to meditation. Outside, surrounding the priory, are various terraces, a patio and landscaped gardens. A beautiful swimming pool area (10 x 5 metres, heated). A car park with an electric car charging point. Several sheds and cellars. The region has a very attractive climate and offers many tourist attractions as well as an exceptional terroir with vineyards, olive trees, lavender, truffles, market gardening, etc. The landscapes are spectacular and lovers of unspoilt nature, hikers and cyclists will find it a real playground. This property, a real favourite, is easily accessible and is suitable for either continuing the existing business or creating a family home as it was in the past, giving everyone their independence.
