Hotel du Poète occupies a charming position in the heart of Fontaine de Vaucluse, a beautifully preserved village built around the powerful La Sorgue river, to the east of Avignon. The three-star hotel is delightful in character, with individually styled bedrooms that feel personal rather than formulaic. Gardens, a terrace bar, and an outdoor pool complete a property that rewards those who want their golf break wrapped in genuine Provençal atmosphere.
The hotel does not have its own restaurant, but the village itself offers a fine selection of places to eat, and nearby Isle-sur-la-Sorgue — a short drive away — is well regarded for its gourmet dining and Sunday markets. The bar and terrace are excellent spots to unwind after a round, with views of the gardens and the river landscape around them. On a rest day, the La Sorgue river offers kayaking for those looking for something different.
Servanes Golf Course is within 30 minutes, and Saumane Golf Course is close at hand, making this an accessible base for a France golf break in Provence. Pont Royal Golf Club — one of the region’s most celebrated layouts — is approximately an hour away, worth planning a round if the itinerary allows. For golfers who enjoy combining fine courses with outstanding scenery and French village life, Hotel du Poète is a quietly special option.
