bastide de gordes | Lust for Life by Olivia Lopez

It only takes a few seconds to scan the surroundings of Bastide de Gordes to realize that upon check in, you are in for a serious treat. The chateau turned leading hotels of the world is home to one of the best views of Provence, and a sight to soak in for guests dining on the terrace or sun bathing along Bastide’s iconic pool.

Bastide de Gordes is located in the picturesque town of Gordes, a hill top village with charming small streets packed with marches and souvenir shops. The hotel overlooks the valley of Provence, where you can trace the lavender fields and farms for miles around. 
The best way to experience the region is by car, and a 20-minute drive along the scenic road will take you to Senanque Abbey, where monks still actively live and cultivate lavender on the premise.

One exceptional feature of Bastide de Gordes is breakfast, offering a selection that goes above and beyond the traditional French-fare of croissant and un café.
The hotel is also home to a haute cuisine Michelin-star restaurant called Pèir, lead by chef Pierre Gagnaire.
