Summary:
This 17th-century noble residence in the picturesque village of Visan, Provence, has been reimagined by the AD100-celebrated Peruvian designer Diego Delgado-Elias. Blending old-world charm with modern elegance, the residence offers a refined stay with stunning interiors, a lush Provençal garden, and breathtaking views of Mont Ventoux.

Bedrooms and bathrooms are furnished with plush, antique pieces, complemented by sumptuous linens and high-end amenities. The residence also includes a separate kids’ wing, providing a space for little ones to enjoy with their nannies (if needed). Outdoors, the property embraces the essence of Provence, with terraces and balconies offering views of Mont Ventoux, a swimming pool with lounge chairs, and a garden filled with citrus trees, fragrant shrubs, and ancient garden urns. A highlight is the fourth-century Roman cobbled pathway that runs through the lush grounds.
