Located in the picturesque village of Mane, at the crossroads of the Luberon and the Forcalquier region, this site surrounded by nature has a unique history. When it was founded in 1613, it was a convent where the two main activites were the cultivation and study of plants. From 1862 to 1999, the convent was transformed into a hospice where an order of nuns settled to take care of the estate and its residents. The Hotel and Spa found there today opened in June 2008. Far from its original vocation, this residence dedicated to relaxation contintues to cultivate the same welcoming spirit that has dwelled there for centuries.
