Domaine de la Cascade Parfumée

A new luxury retreat in the world capital of perfume, the Domaine de la Cascade Parfumée offers a haven of exclusivity and authenticity just 2 km from downtown Grasse. Set on a 1.7-hectare estate, this historic gem—formerly owned by the Red Cross—has been subtly renovated into a guesthouse with a focus on environmental sustainability and local craftsmanship. The centuries-old building, painted ochre in homage to the region’s generous sunshine, evokes the rich history of Grasse and its illustrious families. The spectacular 1,100 m² renovation of this Provençal farmhouse has resulted in a bold interior transformation, designed to welcome discerning guests with the utmost discretion. Five suites, each approximately 50 m², are situated above the common areas, offering panoramic views of the gardens and rolling farmland. In our quest for energy and food self-sufficiency, we have meticulously selected bio-based materials for both the interior and exterior design. An innovative water-to-water heat pump system, utilizing water from the estate’s spring, ensures the heating and cooling of the premises via heated and cooled ceilings. Every detail of the interior design exudes authenticity and refinement. From the existing terracotta tiles to the hewn stones of the fireplace, and including the 100% French washed-linen bedding, vintage pieces and artisanal crafts shine in perfect harmony throughout this renovated home. Beyond the elegance of the interior, the estate offers 5,000 m² of Écocert-certified organic farmland, where sun-kissed vegetables, fruit trees, and aromatic herbs thrive. These fresh produce are the key ingredients in the lunches and dinners prepared by the estate’s chef. In keeping with Grasse’s fragrant heritage, we will create a scented garden where the centifolia rose, jasmine, and tuberose can fully release their aromas. With the Domaine de la Cascade Parfumée, luxury bed-and-breakfast takes on a new dimension, harmoniously blending history, ecology, and local craftsmanship to offer an unforgettable experience for discerning travelers.
