We loved staying in this quaint, historic dovecoat. Jacques, our host, was wonderful and took care of everything! The grounds and gardens are beautiful! We loved having breakfast outside in the garden area and the house had everything we needed. The area is peaceful. Quick drive into Avignon.

The location was perfect for visiting many nearby sites and has easy access to the bike trails. The gite is in very good condition and very clean. It is well furnished and decorated. We were able to cook our evening meals in the kitchen which was adequately stocked for making meals. The outside areas around the property are very well cared for and we enjoyed siting out in the late afternoon. Check in and out was easy and the owners are responsive to questions before and during our stay. We definitely recommend this property for a couple looking to get off the beaten path but still be in easy driving distance to many sites and services.

We loved our stay at this property. It was a great reprieve from the cities of the rest of our vacation. My son was disappointed that the pool wasn’t ready for the season (we visited in May) but it was wonderful to hang out in the garden. The host was responsive and thoughtful. Highly recommended.

Wonderful property and hosts

It was incredible to stay in a charming, country house with easy access to Avignon and Châteauneuf-du- Pape. Our hosts were very gracious. They went out of their way to help us. The view of the sunrise across the fields and the ability to enjoy wine and cheese in the garden added to the experience. Highly recommended this experience.

Charming dovecote

This renovated dovecote has much to offer for those wanting to be in the country. We used it as a base to explore the Cote du Rhone area. The hosts are very pleasant and kind and had several binders of information on various spots for day trips. The upstairs loft bedroom was reached by sturdy stairs and was also where the very large bathroom was located. This was probably the best room in the house and was very clean with an excellent shower and large bath towels. The main floor felt like it was tired from a season of guests and the kitchen cupboards needed some culling and a good cleaning to make it sparkle and items like cracked wine glasses and broken utensils need replacing. If WiFi is important do note that there is no WiFi at all in the dovecote and to get reception you need to go to the patio at the host’s home.

Wonderful idealic setting for travels in Provence.

Lovely little house on a rural property five minutes from Avignon city parking and with easy access to the surrounding sites. Poppies and grapes vines were growing in the neighbouring fields and two beautiful plantanus trees towered over a beautiful yard with flower beds and lawn furniture for relaxing and enjoying a glass of rose wine from the region. Our hosts were friendly and had maps and info all set out for travels. The house was cozy and private. Perfect setting in which to feel the Provence ambience.

An idyllic setting

We are a family of four (children aged 4 and 7) and we absolutely loved our time here. It was an idyllic and relaxing setting, lovely building, and a huge garden that we all enjoyed. The swimming pool was the perfect size and depth. The host was very hospitable and went out of his way to find bicycles both children could ride around the garden. I would highly recommend staying here!

Jacques est venu nous chercher à la gare d'Avignon. Ils nous ont prêté des vélos.Jacques connait très bien la région et il a élaboré un guide sur lequel on peut s'appuyer pour visiter les lieux.Nous recommandons cet hébergement

Urlaub in Avignon

Leider haben die Bilder vom Ferienhaus nicht gehalten, was sie versprochen haben. Geschirr und Besteck alt und schmutzig. Insektenbefall im Haus. Unangenehmer Geruch im Haus, der auch durch diverse Duftspender nicht überdeckt wurde. Sehr schade !
