About this property

Mas Provençal in the heart of Provence

Character farmhouse of 300m2 on a 4500m2 fully fenced park, with large swimming pool. Located in the heart of Provence, it is in the immediate vicinity of Saint-Rémy de Provence and less than 25 minutes from Avignon, Arles and Nîmes. The Mas has undergone a complete renovation in 2018.

It is a true haven of peace where you can relax in the shade of our fruit trees with family or friends. In summer, the large shaded terrace will allow you to prepare and enjoy all your meals outdoors, with the song of the cicadas. See you soon at Mas des Castors.

For security reasons, we do not accept weekends of integration and large groups

Less than an hour by car from the Saintes Maries de la Mer beaches, Pont du Gard and Aix-en-Provence.
Housing
The ground floor of the Mas is reserved for common areas. The 78m2 living room houses the kitchen, the dining room and the living room. At the other end of the house, the library (45m2) will also serve as a TV or karaoke space. Upstairs are 5 air-conditioned bedrooms (3 of which have their own bathroom) and a bathroom. With its extra bed in the library, the Mas can comfortably accommodate 12 adults and 2 children.
The terrace is divided between the barbecue area, dining and relaxation.
The mas being entirely intended for you, you will alone enjoy the park of just over 4500m2 where you will find, in addition to the swimming pool (May-September), a ping pong table. Several deckchairs and their sunbathing are also available. Depending on the season, you may be able to take advantage of the generosity of our cherry, olive and apricot trees.

The place is beautiful & very comfortable! Our family of 8 adults and 4 children had plenty of room. Gorgeous outdoor space. Played in the pool which was heated & wonderful for October. Lovely kitchen which was so well stocked for cooking french food or just relaxing with wine & conversation at day’s end! Did day trips to Avignon, Arles, Les Baux de Provence & Saint Remy!! Thank you to Martin & his helper, Valentine!!

My brothers, their wives…all nine of us gathered in Tarascon for our nieces wedding, to a man from Provence. Martin’s home was perfect for the occasion. Spacious old, and beautifully updated house with lovely indoors and outdoors space for all of us. We were charmed by it, Martin was lovely to communicate with….we’d come again if we lived closer.

Nice place. Needs some maintenance

We have stayed at mas de Castor from 19 to 26 August The house is very nice with an spacious living room, well equipped kitchen and dining room. We can’t give top qualifications because the house needs some maintenance specially in two bathrooms with bad smell There is a factory nearby with occasional bad smell as well On the positive side garden and pool are nice , rooms have air conditioning and the attention received by owners was great

Amazing stay!

Nestled in picturesque Provence, this rental offers a magical escape. Stunning views, modern amenities, and a tranquil ambiance make it an unforgettable retreat. Perfectly located for exploring the region's charm. Highly recommended! During our delightful stay at the house, we couldn't help but notice that some basic amenities were quite limited. Adding small complementary touches, such as providing soap and mini shampoo for guests, would have made it even more special. Additionally, for a week-long stay, having more than one roll of toilet paper per room would have been truly helpful. Another thing to have in mind is that the library area doesn’t have AC. We really enjoyed our week stay. Thank you Georgie

Fabulous family holiday

This property was perfect for a large family group and we all loved our time there. The layout of the house was ideal with many different activities available. The property is a gorgeous old house with a few accompanying issues namely plumbing - basins don’t drain unless the modern plug system is removed entirely - however once these glitches were worked out - all was good. The only downside was the town of Tarascon which was a real disappointment. This was not a charming village where we could stroll for a coffee or pick up a baguette from the local boulangerie. Tarascon is a sad town full of many beautiful old buildings in need of attention and lacking energy and life. Having said that, we all had a marvellous memorable holiday

Très bon séjour

La maison est vraiment spacieuse, nous avons particulièrement apprécié la piscine et le jardin. Dommage pour l’usine à proximité qui dégage quelques odeurs nauséabondes. Je recommande vraiment cette maison car nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances et il y a beaucoup de site à visiter à proximité.

AUTENTIQUE MAS PROVENÇAL !

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce splendide mas ancien, nous étions pourtant 13 adultes, 3 enfants et un bébé, mais les volumes et le nombre de couchages ont permis de conserver une fluidité très agréable. Cette maison possède un cachet exceptionnel notamment avec une magnifique pièce de vie de 70 m2 et un jardin très arboré. De plus le centre ville de Tarascon n’est qu’à 7 min à pieds de la propriété. Bref, un séjour au top, tout en authenticité !

Semaine de vacances très relaxe

Points négatifs: quelques moustiques, quelques odeurs ponctuellement portées par le vent provenant de l'usine à quelques kilomètres, problèmes avec une des salles de bain (qui a dû être condamnée). Points positifs: logement tout à fait conforme à l'annonce postée sur Abritel, toutes les chambres sont spacieuses, bonne literie, décoration de goût. Logement idéalement situé à proximité de la Camargue, du mont Ventoux, des Alpilles, d'Arles et Avignon. Logement idéal pour les mordus de nature, comme pour les mordus d'art et d'histoire.

Perfect location to walk to town yet be in the quiet countryside

Our holiday in this house was absolutely wonderful due the comfort and convenience of this house. So close to town yet delightfully quiet countryside feel throughout our stay. Modern renovations have been tastefully applied to this very French farmhouse. Plenty of toilets and shower rooms. The large garden, alfresco eating area and very comfortable outdoor seating and sun loungers were used to the full by our large family. Table tennis and boules contests interleaved with our day trips to the many local sights and activities. Communications with Martin were easy and timely. Check in and check out with his house keeper, Valentine was delightful. (English or French language) Absolutely 5 star holiday. Memories to last a lifetime.

A beautiful and spacious Provence style house! Great communication with owners. Spacious rooms. Great locations. Only not perfect due to a few maintenance issues that need to be fixed (lights that didn’t work and BBQ that was quite filthy To a point of not being usable) but would still rent it again and again!

Sejour plaisant mais terni par de nombreux désagréments dans la maison

L'entretien de la piscine n'a été fait que deux fois sur les 4 initialement annoncés pendant notre séjour de 15 jours, la deuxième intervention étant la veille de notre départ. Nous avons dû assurer nous même l’entretien du filtre et de la chaussette. De plus, il y a une absence de sécurité physique de la piscine alors même qu’un rideau est visible sur les photos mais hors service. Une alarme est toutefois en place. L’entretien des espaces vert est effectué toutes les semaines mais les arbustes nécessiteraient une taille forte sur le chemin d’accès afin d’éviter les frottements sur la carrosserie des véhicules. Nous avons également eu des odeurs nauséabondes en provenance des canalisations des douches. Le soucis a été corrigé en cours de séjour. La Climatisation était peu performante dans 2 des chambres. La quantité de vaisselle était vraiment insuffisante pour un groupe de 14 personnes de même que les quantités de transats et chaises. Nous avons aussi eu des équipements cassés ( chaises, transats, marche de terrasse…), utilisables en l’état comme précisé par le propriétaire, il réside néanmoins un risque important pour les enfants. Les matelas des transat et canapés ne sont plus de toute fraîcheurs. Des transats en alu seraient plus pratiques et éviteraient la manutention quotidienne des matelas et coussins. Le propriétaire était présent la semaine avant notre séjour et nous avons eu la surprise d’un barbecue plutôt en mauvais état et defaillant. Un entretien plus suivi de la maison serait nécessaire au vu du tarif appliqué. Celui ci n’est pas en relation avec la prestation attendue À noter également la présence de l’usine fibre excellence qui génère de fréquents désagréments olfactifs additionnés à ceux des chevaux à proximité et la compagnie de nombreuses mouches, cela n’étant en rien imputable au propriétaire mais suffisamment important pour le souligner. La maison reste dans l’ensemble très jolie et idéalement placée pour les nombreuses visites à faire aux alentours.

Relaxing Visit to Tarascon Villa

The Villa is simply lovely with spacious rooms and a fully equipped, modern kitchen. We 3 couples enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and lovely gardens and grounds. On a few cool nights we made a cozy fire in the beautiful fireplace that was well positioned in the combined living room/dining/kitchen area. While we were just 3 couples, this Villa could comfortably accommodate many more as there were 5 bedrooms (all on the second floor),, and some included an extra twin bed. Three of the bedrooms had large en suite bathrooms with a huge walk-in shower. There is a smaller (4th) bathroom near the 2 additional bedrooms and a lovely little bathroom on the first floor off the main entrance. The laid back village of Tarascon is about a 5 minute walk from the Villa, and because of this close proximity, we could walk to the village for groceries, wine or fresh croissants most mornings. While it was too chilly for us to use the pool, it looked very inviting for summer visitors, and there are 2 areas of outside seating as well. We highly recommend this Lovely Villa for families or groups.
