Le Hameau des Liesses, A Beautiful Bed and Breakfast in Châteauneuf-Miravail, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence

This charming Bed and Breakfast is situated in a lovely village between Durance and Luberon. The Jabron Valley is primarily a rural area. There are no shops or restaurants within 20 km. 

Comprising 3 bedrooms and a gite, the property is spacious and authentic with terracotta floor tiles, century-old beams, exposed stone walls and decorative fireplaces. All the bedrooms benefit from wonderful mountain views

Perched on a rocky peak 100m from the Jabron stream, Le Hameau des Liesses was built in 1739.  Despite its' location giving it the air of a fortress nestled on the cliff, it is with surprise that one discovers its southern slope looking out onto the beautiful valley and surroundings, not to mention the Provence sunshine.

In the middle of the courtyard a fountain rocks the tranquility of dry stone buildings. Away from the roads, calm is assured because the fields, lavender, fruit trees and sheep are our only neighbors.

Le Hameau des Liesses is located at the crossroads of Vaucluse, Drôme Provençale and the Alpes de Haute Provence. It is the ideal place to discover the beautiful region to go hiking or simply bask in the shade of weeping willows with as a backdrop the Mountain Lure so dear to Jean Giono.
