La Bastide Cedrea - The Guest House

There is a place in Provence where time truly stands still.

Not the one from the postcards. Not the one from the interchangeable hotels where they hand you a key without even looking at you.

A place where, as soon as you step through the gate, something inside you relaxes.

You don't know why yet. Perhaps the song of the cicadas. Perhaps the scent of thyme, of lavender warmed by the sun. Perhaps simply because someone was truly waiting for you.

Welcome to BASTIDE CEDREA

A fortified town. A story. Yours.

In Peyrolles-en-Provence, nestled between olive trees and the golden light of the Aix region, the BASTIDE CEDREA is not an accommodation like any other.

It is a house inhabited by a family, by a passion for hospitality, by the sincere desire that you leave different from how you arrived.

Here, your accommodation is independent, clean, and cozy. Your private terrace is yours alone. The garden, the courtyard, the peace and quiet—everything is there, without any forced sharing.

Just you. The sun. And time passing differently.

What you will experience here

In the morning, you open the shutters. The Provençal light floods in. Your continental breakfast awaits you; served in your accommodation, just like at home, only better.

Late in the morning, if you have nowhere else to be, you stay...

The late brunch, starting at 12pm, is perfect for that. Because some mornings deserve to last.

In the afternoon, you set off to explore by bike, car, or on foot. The Luberon is right there, on the other side of the Durance River. A little further on, the Verdon Gorge. Aix-en-Provence and its charming streets are twenty minutes away, Marseille and its calanques less than an hour away. And it's the best decision you'll have made in a long time.

In the evening, if you wish, Caroline, a qualified chef, will cook for you. Fresh produce. Local producers. Seasonal ingredients. Not just a bed and breakfast dinner. A real meal, thoughtfully prepared, cooked with care to accommodate your allergies or dietary restrictions, and served with attention in the privacy of your own room.

And when the sun disappears behind the hills, you understand why people fall in love with Provence.

Who is BASTICE CEDREA for?

For you, if you are looking for a romantic weekend away from the noise of the city.

For you, if you are attending a birthday, a wedding, a special occasion, and once the last notes of music have faded, you want to find peace and tranquility in a cozy setting that lives up to your memories.

For you, if you are travelling with your family and dream of an authentic South of France, without the stress of large resorts.

For you, if you simply want to relax and leave feeling refreshed.

And even for your four-legged companion, BASTIDE CEDREA welcomes you both.

What we promise you

No false promises of luxury. No retouched photos that look like nothing when you arrive.

Just a sincere welcome, a preserved setting, a table cooked with love, and the rare feeling of having been truly expected.

Your Provence begins here

Book your stay at BASTIDE CEDREA and let yourself be surprised by what calm can do for you.

See you very soon!
