Maison 1643

Veronique and Frederic have come upon a perfect formula for providing welcoming, friendly and very comfortable accommodations for guests who want to relax and explore this beautiful and historic part of France. The renovations of the 17th c. structure were made with flair, with high-end fixtures and decor and careful attention to detail. The pool is beautifully sited and maintained. We had two superb table d'hote dinners expertly prepared and presented. Breakfasts were delicious, everything homemade. We fell in love with Titus the dog, who is affectionate, well-behaved and happy to play ball.

We had a wonderful stay here in November and immediately wondered when we could come back. Véronique and Frédéric are charming hosts - we had an apéritif with them each evening, before sitting down to a beautiful home-cooked three course meal using local produce. Locally produced organic wines were available too. The rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable: our every need was catered for, with impressive eco-conscious touches such as locally made environmentally-friendly toiletries, refillable capsules for the Nespresso machine, and filtered water. We'd heartily recommend!

I loved it here - the welcome from Véronique and Frédéric was warm beyond words, the place simply magical offering peace and tranquillity within reach of the lively, southern, medieval towns of Avignon, Arles and Orange and several outstanding Roman sites. I can't wait to head back here and sample the mouth-watering cuisine in the convivial atmosphere in the open barn.
