We booked a last minute one week vacation in august and were very lucky as it was the only week available on the calendar! No wonder! Isabelle's ancient provencal mas is simply charming, not fancy yet extremely warm, comfortable and characteristic, full of beautiful architectural details and tasteful hand picked furniture and decorative elements. It felt like we drifted in a past age - quiet, peaceful - but with ALL the comforts of modern life. The garden, huge and entirely enclosed, was perfect for our two dogs, safe and fun. We missed the pool experience unfortunately as the weather was a bit too chilly. It's a perfect location for exploring Provence, from Isle sur la Sorgue, Fontaine de Vaucluse, Gordes, Roussillon, Bonnieux to the Gorges du Verdon, Avignon, Carcassonne...so many magnificent places. After our exciting daily excursions we couldn't wait to get back and cook or barbeque our meals, dine outside in the front garden with a bottle of wine under the stars, then watch a movie or dvd on the cosy couch.
Upon our arrival we were tired and stressed, after a week at the mas we were totally relaxed.
Isabelle is so kind, a very special person indeed. We highly recommend it, can't wait to spend another week or more in paradise. Thank you Isabelle and Provence!
