Aurel Mont mountain retreat at golden morning light

A Private Mountain Retreat

Where themountainsbecome home.

A quiet retreat shaped by nature, architecture and slow living — high above the Aurel Valley.

02 — The Retreat

A place toslow down.

Aurel Mont was built into the hillside rather than upon it — stone quarried nearby, oak left untreated, glass wide enough to let the valley do the talking.

Twenty-four rooms. One long table. A spa carved into the rock. Days here are measured in light, weather and the hour dinner is served.

09 — Our Story

Rooted inthe mountains.

A modern retreat shaped by place, people and the seasons.

The house began as a valley farmstead — three generations of the same family, one barn, and a stone wall that still holds the terrace today.

What we added is quiet: warm oak, wide glass, a kitchen that buys within thirty kilometres. What we kept is everything the mountain already offered.
