Le Prieuré Saint-Michel

   
Located in the countryside, on an exceptional site among valleys and apple trees planted meadows, Le Prieuré Saint Michel, is nowadays an spectacular inn, set in a Benedictine Priory founded in the late Xth century that has retained most of the religious and agricultural buildings of the monks. Dry stones, and arched windows were perfectly combined in the restoration, to re-create the peace and tranquillity of the ancient priory and its gardens. The magnificent 13th century's chapel with its barrel vaulted ceiling and one of the largest timbered cider houses built during the 15th century, still remain and are laid out forming a courtyard in the centre of which a small pond, fed by a natural spring reflects a dazzling palette of colours in its luxuriant surroundings. You will discover rooms with a lot of charm, and a profusion of flowers that come from the beautifully laid gardens. Take your time and stroll through the rose garden, the iris garden or the physic garden, or take the lime walk, with views over the surrounding countryside, leading to the orchard and wildflower garden, where water trickles gently down through pools teeming with animal and plant life. Protected by hedges of hornbeam, each one reveals itself like a secret as you enter.
A friendly and warm staff invites you to spend pleasant moments in this enchanting place, that will allow them to tell you and get in touch with the beautiful history of the priory.
