L' Ermitage Chateaux & Villas

With fully equipped kitchen and dining areas in the 28 charming private villas, guests can self-cater as they wish. But if you're longing for something you haven't prepared yourself, head across to the on-site L'Ermitage Restaurant. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the restaurant offers a very good à la carte menu of hearty seasonal dishes, with excellent local wines! There's a chapel for weddings, with a banqueting hall that can seat 60 guests – all with a view.

If you're after plush, exquisitely decked-out accommodation, then L' Ermitage Chateaux & Villas has you sorted. Featuring 28 one- and two-bedroomed villas (all with kitchen areas) and six luxury Chateau Suites, the property offers a stay with an edge. Balconies or terraces are great for losing yourself in those gorgeous mountain views. A unique feature here is the aptly named Handy phone, which gives you access to unlimited date and phone calls, and guides you through the town with recommendations.

Enjoy a few lengths in the pool before a relaxing in-room spa treatment to soothe and relax you or simply dine out on your favourite meal in the on-site restaurant. Wine and art lovers will be well-catered to with the many nearby top wine estates and fascinating local art galleries. Nature enthusiasts can enjoy some wonderful outdoor activities, like horse riding through the vineyards, or hiking in the Mont Rochelle Nature Reserve. While cheese, wine and chocolate tastings tempt the taste buds.
