Terre de Provence mountain rentals

We stayed for a week in very hot July and could not have been happier with the property. Boris was extremely helpful at check in and very easy to contact during our stay, quickly providing anything we requested, even arriving with croissants and baguettes on our first morning when refilling the gas BBQ. Very thoughtful touches in stocking the fridge with drinks and providing wine from his vineyards for us to sample! The house is immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, everything has been thought of. The gym is extremely well fitted out, and the whole house is air conditioned so the heat was not an issue at all. The outdoor shower on the upstairs terrace was a favourite with our group, the house is surrounded by vineyards so total privacy. Although the house is private, a 10 minute stroll took us into the village where there were multiple boulangeries to choose from. The house has electric gates to access the long, very pretty driveway and then further electric gates to enter the property, so it feels very secure. The pool area was a huge hit. We had 2 families with children so much time spent here. There were pool toys to use and an undercover pool bar area which has a fridge and sink, perfect for a drink around the pool. With table tennis, boules, and a huge garden, no one was getting bored, but there was a huge screen in the living area with every channel imaginable for some down time. A perfect stay, we loved it, thank you Boris!

We spent a very happy week at the delightful Mas Le Macaju in the first week of July. This is a property that will particularly suit a family with young children, looking for somewhere more contemporary than rustic, comfortable, safe and within easy reach of the towns and villages on the western edge of Provence, 20 minutes from Avignon and about an hour to the airport in Marseille. The owner, Fabien, speaks heavily-accented French and barely any English but is very accommodating and responsive, and clearly takes great pride in maintaining the property. The house was spotlessly clean and the facilities excellent - a beautiful pool, a lovely shaded outdoor bbq/dining area, a modern laundry and well-equipped kitchen. Lounging by the pool, reading a good book and drinking copious quantities of rose was no hardship here!
