Dining Under
the Stars

A dinner suspended between earth and sky,
in the heart of the Ardèche.

Discover
As the sun withdraws behind the Ardèche hills,
the table comes alive.

Beneath centuries-old olive trees, in the softness of the evening, a dinner unfolds — intimate, gastronomic, almost secret. Lanterns cast their light on ancient stone, the plateau breeze brushes the linen, and the Coiron sky opens up, vast and silent.

Here, time does not pass. It settles.

A private dinner
under open skies

Across the 7,000 m² of the Mas estate, a table is set for you alone. A bespoke menu conceived by a Michelin-starred chef, elegant table setting, discreet and refined service — every detail is designed to turn a meal into a memory.

  • Outdoor gastronomic dinner on the estate grounds
  • Menu conceived and cooked by a starred chef
  • Full table setting: linen, crockery, candles, lanterns
  • Discreet, fully private service
  • Reserved exclusively for Mas guests — exclusivity as the ultimate luxury

Richard Rocle, chef étoilé Michelin

Richard Rocle

Auberge de Montfleury · Saint-Germain, Ardèche

Trained at the Escoffier school from the age of 13, Richard Rocle built a classical technique he gradually set free — adding modern touches and Asian inspirations. For him, cooking is an art of the ephemeral that invites sharing and travel through the awakening of all the senses.

Michelin-starred since 2019, he creates a bespoke menu for every dinner at the Mas, inspired by the seasons, small Ardèche producers and the particular light of the Coiron. Much sincerity, a touch of tradition, imagination seasoned with originality in just the right measure.

"A contemporary cuisine between terroir and modernity, giving pride of place to small producers."

Dessert, homemade herbal tea from the garden, silence. On certain nights the Coiron offers one of the most star-filled skies in France.
