Recently renovated by owners, Mark and Tracey, Les Beaux Chenes is a traditional stone-built Provencal ‘Mas’, which boasts a large swimming pool. Our charming property is set in 4 hectares of private woodland, and offers 4 self contained gites. All provide a beautiful location for a relaxing holiday experience in the undiscovered Drome-Provencale, Southern France.
The gites enjoy a tranquil setting, surrounded by beautiful countryside and mountain views, yet only 4 kms from the listed, historic Roman village of Pont de Barret, where the river Roubion runs through. La Drome-Provencale is one of the best kept secrets in Southern France, less well known than neighbouring Provence but has much to offer. It shares a similar climate and landscape, with sunflowers and lavender fields, olive groves, cypress trees, truffle oaks (from where Les Beaux Chenes takes it’s name), starry nights but without the crowds.
The climate and quiet roads provide the perfect location for walking and cycling, with routes recommended by the owners or you may wish to simply explore on your own.
The owners live in the adjacent property and are happy to be on hand to offer advice or to leave you in peace! English and French spoken.
