10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2023
Two families recreated a holiday together but now with grown up children. An amazing place to stay to relax and enjoy and unwind together. Lots of space to play games including the great pool. Lots of BBQs enjoyed in the beautiful outdoor dining spaces under the vines in the evening sunshine, as well as some outstanding nearby restaurants (La table du boucherie, Le L du Moulin, Dan B) and not forgetting a wine tour at Château Calavon. Lambesc market is a must. Housekeeping were very helpful and attended to any issues. Youcef also cooked us a great meal. Georgina helped us with travel plans when SNCF had issues and offered to help us with anything else we needed. Highly recommended to anyone.

Absolutely fabulous. Plenty of everything for hosting a large family gathering for friends and other family staying in nearby houses. Location ideal for those wanting to explore all that Provence has to offer.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2021
La maison est très bien placée, elle est très belle, spacieuse et parfaite pour accueillir une grande famille, mais nous sommes déçus de la qualité des prestations. Ça ne vaut pas le prix. Très cher pour une maison avec beaucoup de défauts, déjà la propreté, des placards pas très clean, des araignées un peu partout, de la poussière de quelques semaines. Des tetes de lit pas très propres, ou déchirées, des portes qui ne se ferment pas, les chaises de la terrasse cassées et mal entretenues, une piscine pas du tout propre. Le terrain autour de la piscine c'est désormais que du sable qu'on amène jusqu'à la piscine et a l'intérieur de la maison. Des tapis de l'entrée qui sont désormais a jeter. Pour une maison à ce prix on s'attend à de la qualite. Un barbecue dans un sale état.
