Fodor's Expert Review Château de Fonscolombe

Rte. de Saint-Canadet, Le Puy-Sainte-Réparde, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France

This gracious 18th-century country château and wine estate combines a deeply Provençal setting with chic yet comfy rooms and suites in either the historic château or a more modern wing. The beautiful Historic Suite, with great views over the park, has a period marble tub big enough for six. Enjoy a glass of the estate's rosé in the beautiful bar or on the wide garden terrace, then dine at the gastronomic restaurant, one of the best in the area. Many of the castle's period details were preserved during its restoration, and, today, it's the perfect place to disconnect, aided by a spa and pool.

PROS

  • extensive grounds and wooded walking paths
  • activities around food and wine
  • luxurious spa

CONS

  • pool is on the small side
  • expensive restaurant
  • not close to the action of Aix-en-Provence
