La Maison sur la Sorgue
Style Well-travelled townhouse
Setting Waterside brocante market
La Maison sur la Sorgue’s owners, Frederic and Marie-Claude, have trotted the globe and brought their favourite bits home. This boutique hotel on L’Isle sur la Sorgue is scattered with magpie-picked pieces from all over the place that sit amid the restored architecture of this old private mansion. Behind the huge wooden doors in a side-street sanctuary off the busy square, an airy expanse that awaits.

Our favourite rooms
Chambre à la Loggia is spacious and loft-like, with deep-crimson walls and a huge private terrace overlooking the gardens and market square. Just down the steps, book the Suite of Shadows for spectacular light effects involving the shutters at sunset. And for the best bathroom, pick Room with a View; it has an antique roll-top bath, wood panelling and a pretty vista of an 18th-century chapel.
