About this property
Dovecote in the Commanderie des Templiers at Montfrin
Ideally located, between Avignon, Nîmes and Uzès, and 10 minutes from Pont du Gard. In the 12th-century Montfrin Templar commandery, a building steeped in history, atypical accommodation that can accommodate up to 5 people. With two beautiful private terraces (45m2 and 10m2) and not overlooked. The village benefits from numerous shops, within walking distance of the house: restaurant, pharmacy, tobacco, bakery, weekly market, grocery store and a supermarket (petrol). In short! a unique accommodation, very quiet and bright for an unforgettable stay! We leave maps and leaflets available to travelers with details of the various essential sites to visit and sports activities in the region! a small bottle of Montfrin rosé awaits you cool! We make it a point of honor that the house is as welcoming as possible for an unforgettable stay in our beautiful building! This is why we expect our travelers to respect the place and make the house tidy, the garbage cans emptied and the sheets removed from the beds! the costs of 30 € concern (in addition to the cleaning done before each arrival): detergents (sheets, towels, tea towels ...), the supply of "essentials" (household products, toilet paper, shower gel shampoo ... sugar , salt, pepper, olive oil ...)
Thank you and enjoy your stay!

We were so pleased with our stay at the commandery. It's beautiful, comfortable, and charming. The photos don't do it justice and the town is worth the visit.
We really enjoyed staying at the commandery. It was a very unique experience when I was staying in the Provence region. It was very clean, despite all the old stone around the apartment. Only issue I noticed was that the rain shower sprayer was cracked down the middle, causing the water to burst out in the middle of the fixture and the hand sprayers holder was completely missing, but that isn’t enough for me to give it less than 5 stars. It was a little challenging to enter the courtyard with a small SUV, but free parking was only a few minutes walk once we unloaded. Everything you need in a kitchen will be in the apartment, so stock up on your food before you come. It may be pretty warm in the apartment (depending on when you come) but the AC units and water cooled fan will quickly cool down the place.

Thank you, Partricia, for your kind comment.
I'm really sorry about the shower.
We're just installing a new shower on Saturday!
Regarding parking, the ad clearly states that there is no private parking on site. Parking in the courtyard is therefore not permitted!
Montfrin served as a good home-base to explore other areas of Provence. The bakery right by the apartment was lovely, and there’s a decent grocery store in the town.
Fleur was on holiday when we visited so we had almost no contact with her. Her father-in-law served as host during our stay. He was great!
The apartment is in a twelfth century building—so very unique and historical, but there are a few challenges to be aware of.
1. While there is AC, it’s only in the bedroom, which is on another floor and away from the rest of the apartment in another part of the building. We were there in June, and the living area was uncomfortably warm most of the time.
2. The stairs -- The main bedroom is on the top floor (there’s a single bed just off the living area below). The bathroom is a floor below in another part of the building. The stairs from the bedroom to the bathroom, especially at night, were tricky to navigate safely – two 90 degree turns with no handrails and, at the top, a stone lip then drop off to descend the stairs, making bathroom visits at night quite challenging.
3. The mattress is soft, and for us, not enough support, causing a sore back by the end of our stay.
4. The rooftop terrace – accessed by stairs from the bedroom, has lovely view, but faces the afternoon sun was too hot to enjoy for most of our stay. If you are traveling in cooler months, though, it’s a lovely spot.

I take the liberty of responding to your bad note. I am sorry you had such a bad time in our house.
1. concerning the many stairs (especially to access the bedroom), it is clearly specified in the ad!
To access the bathroom at night, it was enough to turn on the light (which illuminates the stairs to the bottom!). So far we have never had any problems with any of our tenants. maybe you haven't even tried the switches?!
2. Regarding the air conditioning, it is also specified in the advertisement that it is only in the bedroom.
3. also sorry that our brand new mattress was not to your liking. we have however been told a lot of good things about it.
4.concerning the high temperatures, unfortunately we had nothing to do with it!
maybe you shouldn't travel to Provence in the summer.
For your future trips I suggest you read the ads carefully or else choose a contemporary villa on one level with air conditioning everywhere!
Logement très agreable et confortable. La grande chambre donne l’impression d’etre en haut d’une tour. Communication fluide avec Fleur et logement pet-friendly ! Merci encore
Hôte sans chaleur impersonnel. Logement empeste le produit anti puce à mon arrivé ! Peu agréable comme expérience ! Obligée de ventiler sur 48 h!!!Pas de tv dans le logement. places de parking au parking municipal impossible dans la rue .cadeau pour 3 nuits = appât frauduleux !
Ein historisches Gemäuer mit Geschichte und Charakter
Ein historisches Gemäuer mit Geschichte und Charakter, liebevoll und kreativ als Ferienwohnung hergerichtet. Es ist alles da, was man so braucht, wir haben uns wohl gefühlt.
Es war erstaunlich ruhig, wir konnten nachts problemlos die Fenster offen lassen, als es am Anfang unseres Aufenthaltes noch sehr heiß war. Die Klimaanlage haben wir nicht benutzt und gut geschlafen.
Zur Raumaufteilung: oben ist ein Schlafzimmer, von dem aus es wiederum mit ein paar Holzstiegen auf die wunderbare Dachterrasse geht. Ein Stockwerk darunter der hauptsächliche Wohnraum mit der Einbauküche und dem recht bequemen Liegesofa, das Bad wurde von diesem Raum abgetrennt. Die kleine Nische mit dem Einzelbett ist etwas abgesetzt, dazwischen immer ein paar Stufen.
Für Menschen mit mit Knieproblemen ist die Wohnung nicht so günstig (siehe andere Rezension) und groß gewachsene Menschen werden (anfangs) schmerzhaft daran erinnert, dass früher die Menschen deutlich kleiner waren.
Für uns (4 Erwachsene) hat aber alles gepasst.
Rundum ein schöner Urlaub in Montfrin / Provence. Fleur, eine sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, mit guten Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt.
Wie inseriert, haben wir eine einfache und schöne Wohnung mit historischem Ambiente vorgefunden, mit allem was man braucht. Als absolut herausragend haben wir die Dachterrasse und den weiteren Balkon empfunden. Auf der Dachterrasse konnten wir wunderbar entspannen und den Sonnenuntergang bei einem Glas Wein genießen.
Die Wohnung bietet in diesem historischen Gebäude ein außergewöhnliches, beeindruckendes Ambiente.
Montfrin Ist ein zentraler Ausgangspunkt für Abstecher nach Avigon, Arles, Nimes, Aix en Provence, etc. Gute Möglichkeiten zum Fahrradfahren. Sehr freundliche, hilfsbereite Menschen, von (fast) jedem ist ein freundliches „Bonjour“ zu vernehmen. Die Gastronomie betreffend ist Montfrin aber leider noch entwicklungbedürftig.
Liebevoll eingerichtete Wohnung in einem faszinierenden Städtchen
Die Wohnung in dem uralten Gebäude ist sehr geschmackvoll gestaltet und eine wunderbare Kombination aus modernem Komfort und Geschichte. Von der Terasse aus eröffnet sich ein toller Ausblick über die Dächer des hübschen, alten Städtchens. Die schmalen Gassen von Montfrin bieten Schatten an heißen Tagen und in der näheren Umgebung gibt es berühmte Städte und Sehenswürdigkeiten. Wir wollen sehr gern wiederkommen.
Haben uns inmitten des Dorfes sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Gastgeber waren immer bemüht alles recht zu machen. Wunderbar.
Tipps von Fleur warensehr gut.
Immer wieder gerne. Dachterrasse ist optimal für einen Absacker mit Blick in die untergehende Sonne.
Vielen Dank
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche in Montfrin. Die Unterkunft war wirklich einmalig. Man kann super Ausflüge starten und im Ort hat man alles, was man braucht.
Hôtes exceptionnels dans un logement exceptionnel. Très bien situé pour profiter de tous les sites magnifiques du Gard. À peine une heure de la mer. Logement parfait pour une famille de 4, terrasses avec vue qui vaut le détour.
Nous recommandons chaudement ce beau logement!
Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft, mit Geschichte. Es ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht. Der Ausblick ist traumhaft. Montfrin ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um die Provence aber auch das Department Gare zu entdecken. Avignon, Nìmes und Arles sind schnell erreicht und auch bis zum Mittelmeer braucht man lediglich eine Stunde.
Vielen Dank an unsere Gastgeber Fleur und Eric für einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt
Ce lieux est tout simplement magnifique !! Nous avons passé un agréable séjour avec mon fils . L'hôte est très chaleureuse, merci beaucoup pour son accueil .
