About this property

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.

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.

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

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.

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 !

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
