Our 17th century renovated Mas or farmhouse is set in 2/3rds of an acre amidst orchards, on the road between Avignon and St-Rémy-de-Provence ideally situated for exploring Provence.
Our outbuildings have been converted to comfortable, fully equipped self-catering Gîtes (guest houses) and our gardens are landscaped to include a 12 x 6m swimming pool, summer house, a pond and waterfall, and secluded seating areas for the use of our guests.
At 500 meters from the village of Rognonas and all its services, you are at an easy walk or drive from four bakeries, one grocery store, two "traiteurs", two bars and three restaurants as well as all the other conveniences of an active village. The city of Avignon's exciting downtown itself is but a seven-minute drive away.
POOL STUDIO is a fully self-contained cottage. This small ideal cottage for the thrifty but social travellers is located within the fenced area of the 12 x 6m swimming pool, converted from the original ‘Provencal outdoor kitchen’, WC & changing room. With 3 rooms, the main room being the kitchen/living area with fully fitted kitchen, complete with sink, electric oven & gas hobs over, microwave, fridge with integrated freezer, toaster, kettle & plenty of cupboard space. In the corner is a small circular table with 2 comfy chairs for internal dining. The shelving holds a portable radio/CD player, a variety of CD’s & books. A small free standing wardrobe & drawers is also within this room. The bedroom at the opposite end contains the metal framed double bed with mattress topper, 2 side tables & the IPOD docking station with radio and alarm clock. The entry door from the bedroom opens onto a small patio area with your own daybed. Between the kitchen & bedroom is the bathroom complete with WC, WHB & shower. The exposed beams and cathedral style ceiling gives the Pool Studio a feeling of space.
The great feature of the Pool Studio is the double french doors in the kitchen open directly onto the pool, 4 paces & you are in!
A double window in the kitchen opens directly onto a second outdoor dining area, your personal use in the evening when the other guests leave. It has a large concrete tiled table & 4 chairs & your own gas BBQ. The large terrace area faces west so you can enjoy the Provencal sunsets.
All linens and bathroom towels are supplied free of charge. Free access to separate pool towels is also available. Laundry facilities including free detergent, is shared with the other guests on a rotational basis.
