A corner of paradise in the Provençal Var region

In the heart of Cotignac, one of the jewels of the Var region, classified among “The Most Beautiful Villages of France”, hotel Lou Calen flourishes within 3 hectares of rich and glorious nature. This eco-resort promises a total change of scenery in the heart of still-undiscovered Provence, only an hour from the spectacular Verdon valley and the sunny beaches of the Côte d’Azur.

The 34 guest bedrooms are either nestled in the midst of the glorious gardens or overlooking the village square, set within the walls of the original hotel building. Each room has been crafted and decorated in harmony with their unique environment. During your stay, Lou Calen invites you to experience unforgettable moments: whether at the Jardin Secret, a restaurant honoured with a Michelin green star, and where chef Benoit Witz revisits Provençal gastronomy with finesse; or the new Bistrot restaurant with its generous cuisine, showcasing delicious flame-grilled local meats. Three more addresses entice you out of your luxurious room and into the Provençal art of living: the microbrewery La TUF, a trendy bar where local beer is brewed on site; O’Fadoli, the pastis bar that celebrated more than 80 aniseed varieties; and finally, Didier’s wine bar, a true summer institution, where each glass tells a fascinating story about the French terroir.
