THE STORY

Couvent de la Salette is a beautifully restored 19th-century convent in the heart of Millau, southern France’s Aveyron region. Set against a backdrop of dramatic limestone plateaus and nestled between the Grands Causses and the Tarn Gorges, this unique hideaway offers a peaceful haven where heritage and contemporary comfort harmoniously meet. 

The guesthouse features four rooms and two suites that preserve the spirit of the convent while offering modern comforts. The rooms are characterized by soft, neutral tones, natural textures, and curated decor that reflects the simplicity and serenity of the space’s monastic roots. Antique doors, original architectural elements, and custom-designed furnishings create a warm yet understated atmosphere, where luxury is expressed through authenticity and attention to detail.

Guests are welcomed with a generous breakfast served in the light-filled dining room or on the terrace. The breakfast, sourced from local producers, celebrates the region’s bounty, featuring fresh croissants and bread from local bakers, seasonal fruits, homemade jams, Aveyron cheeses, artisanal yogurts, and eggs prepared to order. 

In the garden lies a swimming pool surrounded by aromatic plants, old stone walls, and shaded seating areas that invite you to read, nap, or enjoy the sound of birdsong. The spa area offers a selection of wellness treatments, including massages and beauty rituals using natural products. Indoors, cozy lounges with vaulted ceilings, a reading corner, and a piano offer further comfort and inspiration.

Millau is a gateway to the great outdoors, with hiking trails winding through the Causses landscapes, canoeing and swimming in the Tarn River, and world-class cycling routes. The nearby Gorges du Tarn and Gorges de la Dourbie offer dramatic scenery and opportunities for rock climbing, canyoning, or wandering through medieval villages and local markets. 

At the heart of this thoughtful renovation is Stéphanie, the owner and host. Her vision was to breathe new life into this historic space while preserving its soul. With a deep love for the region and a passion for creating meaningful experiences, she has transformed Couvent de la Salette into more than a guesthouse—a place of calm, connection, and quiet beauty.
