Maison d’Ulysse: Guest house with Mediterranean charm

La Maison d'Ulysse-01-1 Kindesign

The Maison d’Ulysse is an historic 17th century fortified farmhouse in the South of France and bears the name of one of its former owners, the archaeologist and poet Ulysse Dumas. Dumas (1872-1909) is a major figure in local history. He made important archaeological discoveries about the prehistoric settlement of the region. Since that time, the farmhouse and its garden have retained a great deal of their poetry, as can be seen from the mulberry trees, ancient oaks and fig trees which border the property. Today, the house – which is listed by the “Fondation du Patrimoine” heritage foundation, with a label for its historical value – is one of France’s finest high-class guest houses.

Inside, you will be immersed in the magic of the house, which has been restored with due respect for its authenticity. Settle down in the comfort of your luxury guest house room and rest in the coolness of its natural limewashed walls. You will be charmed by the contemporary decoration, combining modernity of lines and sobriety of materials, from the Baron Perché room to the Chant du Mûrier suite. Round-off your well-being stay with a swim in the magnificent swimming pool, before relaxing in the spa area and Turkish bath. Then take a stroll in the Mediterranean dry gardens, where luxuriant perennials, shrubs and climbing plants grow side by side.

To stay at the beautiful La Maison d’Ulysse, prices range from $160 – $400 per night, from here.

This guest house I will consider next time my family goes on vacation in the south of Europe. I personally like the old mediterranean house and accompanying gardens much more than the exotic locations offered by many tour companies. The mediterranean atmosphere engulfs you and isolates you from the modern world providing the ultimate vacation.
