If you are looking for a charming experience, this is the place to stay. We loved the quaint, yet equipped apartment which contained all of the essentials that we needed for our 3 day stay - and boasted an amazing view of a vineyard. The location is ideally situated between a few small towns including Orange and Avignon, which we... More

“stay and wine tour”

Reviewed May 21, 2012 NEW

We chose this B&B so that we might visit some vineyards. We took the wine tour. It was a wonderful day. The apartment was wonderful, and the view and house very lovely. The wine tour was very interesting and enjoyable. Nice just to be taken around and we would never have had such an experience on our own. More

Liza it is very kind of you to take the time to write this review. What is mostly interesting in your comment is "we would never have had such an experience on our own". Indeed the tour I'm proposing is very special and the wineries which are visited are all different regarding their type of wines and their aspect. Thank... More

The apartment was very charming, comfortable and clean, it was a lovely home away from home. Charles and Andree were the most welcoming hosts and went above and beyond to make sure my stay... More

Merci KW for this very nice review. What is more significant for me are your words " it was a lovely home away from home".

I understand your comment about the door lock...but we are not a palace able to provide electronic keys and this system is widely used in French homes. Though a bit difficult to use they provide a good 3 points safety locking of the door. About maid service...this is... More

We stayed here for three nights during a wine business trip in the region. Fortunately our GPS had the actual street name, because finding the Mas would otherwise have been a challenge. The small road leads you to believe you're going nowhere, and then suddenly a magical transformation of welcoming lights and excited, happy dogs.Charles Barail gave us a great... More

“Quintessential Provence! One of the best places I've EVER stayed.”

Reviewed September 14, 2011

This place is amazing. If you want an authentic Provencal experience, look no further. We stayed in the Ventoux apartment - the views were out of this world. The apartment overlooks the vineyards and famous Mont Ventoux. The sunsets and sunrises are breathtaking and the place is a complete sanctuary of peace. Charles was a splendid host and the croissants... More

Another apartment "Ouveze", at the 1st floor has also the same view from its private shadowy terrace. And... More

What is interesting in your review is that you are stating that you did not stay with us. Indeed we accept to propose wine tours even to people who are staying at another place nearby. Basically the wine tour consists in visiting 4 wineries, one chocolate manufacturer to experience wine and chocolate pairing and, time permitting a sniffing test of... More
