Le Couvent des Minimes, a mythical address in Provence
Bathed in light, the village of Mane, in Provence, shelters the Couvent des Minimes Hôtel & Spa, a former 17th century convent, at the heart of an aromatic garden.
Leaning against a hillside, protected from the mistral by the sculptural rock of Volx, the Couvent de l'Ordre des Minimes offers a wonderful fragrance of Provence under the pleasant management of Valérie and Fabien Piacentino. Dating back to 1613, the building, in the past was lived in by nuns before becoming a retreat of discrete luxury, a clever mix of medieval architecture and contemporary design.
