The Maison
Maison Emno is a seventeenth-century farmhouse on the terraces below Gordes, rebuilt stone by stone over four winters.
We kept the vaulted cellar, the well in the courtyard and the three-hundred-year-old olive tree that shades breakfast. Everything else was made by hand in the valley: lime-washed walls, terracotta from Apt, linen woven in Lyon.
It is a small house by design. Eighteen rooms means we know your name by the second morning, and the pool is never crowded.
Our story
01
Of the valley
Solar-heated water, a kitchen garden, and suppliers we can drive to before the market closes.
02
Made by hand
Furniture from Luberon workshops, ceramics from Apt, and nothing that looks like it came from a catalogue.
03
Quiet on purpose
No televisions in the garden rooms, no music by the pool, and shutters that close properly.
Eighteen rooms, no two alike
Rooms & Suites
Lime-washed walls, terracotta floors, linen sheets and deep baths. Every room opens onto the garden, a terrace, or the valley.

Where we are
The Luberon
Perched villages, Cistercian abbeys, and lavender that turns the plateau violet in July. Everything worth seeing is within half an hour, and most of it is best reached on foot.
01Gordes
The village above us: stone lanes, a Tuesday market, and the best view in Provence at dusk.
- 02
Sénanque Abbey
A twelfth-century abbey in a fold of the hills, ringed by lavender in early summer.
03Perched villages
Roussillon, Ménerbes and Bonnieux, each a short drive and a long lunch away.
04Vineyards
Côtes du Luberon estates that still pour for walk-in guests on a quiet afternoon.
La Table
Lunch under the plane trees
A kitchen cooked from the Tuesday market, and a cellar of Luberon wines.
