About the host

Hosted by alison

Host profile image
I am a retired dentist, though now live mainly in the south of France where we run a chambre d'hotes called Château St Victor la Coste 30 minutes north of Avignon . I have three adult children, who love the house and area as much as I do! Mas des Anges is very much a family home, and we have had many parties and family gatherings here over the years. Both daughters married here with marquees in the garden so it holds many special memories. The house is very lovely with views across the surrounding valley with amazing tranquility and light. We are a family very interested in art, film and music. The library has an interesting collection of contemporary art books and an eclectic mix of DVDs in French and English. though all the usual Netflix etc are already installed on the smart TV . We are also foodies so lots of recipe books!and a very well stocked kitchen . We now have 2 grandchildren so the house is well-equipped with baby stuff and toys - even a goal for football players, tennis rackets and boules. I am a passionate gardener and have planted many fruit trees and 22 olive trees. The garden is particularly beautiful in May and June when the roses are stunning. I am constantly tweaking the house, loving interior design and having studied art and art history at university . We have had new cushions made for outside 2024 and are constantly flattered that people find the house chic and attractive. The pool is magnesium and heated with underwater lighting for nighttime swimming and completely secluded and private.

Why they chose this property

We are true Francophiles and had holidayed for many years in this area and other parts of the south of France. This area kept drawing us back. It is magical! there are many beautiful places to visit for a true flavour of Provence. The local markets bustling with colour and vibrancy, amazing little restaurants both casual and smart with excellent choice and standard.The village of Maussane is lively and chic with lots of lovely little shops and a weekly food and souvenir market. It is an area of outstanding natural beauty and deservedly has a reputation of attracting artists and writers. There are many festivals throughout the summer celebrating local culture. Luckily the area is still unspoilt! We found the house nestling in the hills of the Alpilles completely tranquil and bathed in sunlight. It charmed us immediately ! The views are uninterrupted countryside with sheep and olive trees- quintessential rural Provence. yet everything you need - restaurants , food markets, charming village square and gorgeous little shops are all within a 5 minute drive. The garden is all enclosed and a complete delight. the house has thick old stone walls so is cool in the summer though we have installed air conditioning this year in the bedrooms and a wood burnering stove in the big fireplace in the salon in the cooler winter months. Life is easy here. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances, pans etc for proper cooking and there is a large gas barbecue for those hot days when everyone wants to eat outside. in addition there is a very efficient pizza oven in the pool house with all necessary tools. All the rooms are spacious- theres not one cramped, tiny bedroom and all bathrooms are modern and work well ! we stayed in many houses previously where there was always a compromise but this house suits everyone! we arrive with kids, friends and oldies and all relax immediately. Its an all season house.Theres plenty of space to be together or retreat so life is easy here.

What makes this property unique

Peace tranquillity and beauty. The garden is very beautiful and big with amazing views. The house is spacious and cool( air conditioning in every room ) with beamed ceilings and an enormous fireplace with wood burner for cooler evenings in early spring or late autumn. We love the easy open plan way that the rooms flow and the complete privacy of all bedrooms having their own generous bathrooms .There is no small bedroom, so everyone has lots of space. The pool is very large, with a hydrolyzed magnesium system with a pompe chaleur causing heating and absolutely healthy with no horrible chlorine or salt residue - it makes you feel wonderful and is beneficial to health and well-being - and is being installed in expensive spas as is also good for the environment. We garden organically.so no nasty pesticides and lots of fruit and tomatoes so please help yourself ! This space works so well for families or large groups. I love that it is so near to all the lovely villages around but feels completely in the countryside with no noise or distractions. We have decorated the house to suit this comfortable ambiance so that it feels modern but cosy and very comfortable. All the beds are incredibly comfortable good quality with excellent bedlinen - this is very important to us. It's easy to either walk or 5 minutes in the car to the village of Paradou with all amenities and a very famous restaurant, The Bistrot du Paradou - featured on television by Rick Stein. It is only 15 minutes by car to the fascinating city of Arles yet 15 minutes over the hills to the stylish town with 2x weekly market of St Remy de Provence . It really is perfectly situated .the house is very much loved and has regular clientele who come every year
