5-BEDROOM GUESTHOUSE AND 2 HOLIDAY COTTAGES FOR RENT Metafort is perched on its rock, between the Luberon and Mont Ventoux. This is no ordinary accommodation — it is a retreat where you can truly unplug in a unique setting. A day at Metafort always begins with the smell of freshly baked cake drifting up the staircase. Then you head out for a walk, come back, and settle by the pool with a good book. Time slips away gently, and you savour idleness without a hint of guilt. Here, the extraordinary makes a bold appearance on the top floor with the "Sous les étoiles" (Under the Stars) room. The bed slides out onto the terrace so you can sleep beneath the Milky Way. Then there is "L'Annesque", a tiny-house-inspired space with floor-to-ceiling windows and a small private garden. Its view is breathtaking, directly above the gorges. Throughout the house, the décor is contemporary, with a mix of carefully sourced vintage finds. This historic 17th-century building has been fully restored and features a panoramic garden with a stunning view over the Nesque Valley. Its double-overflow pool is heated whenever the weather allows. Every room has a spa bath — the perfect prelude to a stay steeped in serenity. Fancy a massage? Simply book one. The large kitchen, shared fridge, and BBQ are all at your disposal for lunch or dinner out in the garden. In short, a house where la dolce vita is no exaggeration. A place where you are truly glad to set down your bags. Children: we welcome infants in the Diamantina room and the Flat. However, for safety reasons — given the sheer drop of the gorges surrounding the property — we accept children aged 14 and over. Our canine friends are no longer permitted due to damage sustained. See you soon, Elsa & Arnaud
