About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

In the countryside of AVIGNON, with pool, bikes, AC ... and our very nice cat !

Contact me for a precise quote which may vary depending on the total number of occupants and the length of the rental.

Ideal for family celebration, reunion of friends, or quiet group of up to 8 adults (and 2 children) MAXIMUM.
Sorry, no wedding possible on site, no disco evenings with sound system ...

Except July and August, possibility of hiring for the weekends; two night minimum.

If you are in the vicinity of Avignon, come and visit our house by appointment to get an idea !!! We are available and very often on site.

Large house in the countryside, but only 5 km from the city center of Avignon!

A large family or a group of friends; find yourself in our large house located in the countryside ... but in the city of Avignon.

Ideally located 5 km from the Place de l'Horloge, that is to say from the heart of Avignon and its Palais des Papes, our cottage classified as Meublé de Tourisme is located in a quiet countryside on the island de la Barthelasse (near the equestrian center), in the middle of the Rhône (largest river island in Europe, 700ha; did you know?).

We therefore propose to rent you our dwelling house composed of five fully renovated bedrooms with two terraces, three bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, internet that goes without saying.
This is our main residence, and we stay next door with our neighbors during rentals!

Outside, you can enjoy a large 9000m² wooded land at your leisure.

In fine weather, a large private 60m² swimming pool awaits you (12m x 5m; gentle slope on 1/3, then depth 1.30m).
It is completely secured by an automatic electric roller shutter (to NF standards).
The swimming pool with its "beach" formula is perfectly suited for young children and babies. It has been very successful (see last issue of the magazine "Ambiance Piscines" page 71, and go dreaming about:

FORGE ADOUR gas plancha available, also charcoal barbecue for those who prefer, Nespresso coffee machine, etc ...
FREE BIKES possible on request,

Possibility of renting only a few rooms if there are few of you; prices on request.

Also know that our cat Piano, very sociable and cuddly, will keep you company during your stay.
No other animals tolerated on site, even passing through, sorry.

Please note that you will be asked for a minimum deposit of 2000 €.
PLEASE NOTE: this will not be returned if the number of holidaymakers provided for in the contract is exceeded, day or night, without request and prior written consent upon arrival! For the good preservation of our house, we are uncompromising on this; thank you for your understanding.

For your comfort and safety, the accesses and exterior surroundings of the house are under video surveillance. Visible cameras monitor the entire parking area as well as the main entrance door.

Ask us for a precise price. All our prices are negotiable and decreasing according to the duration, the number of people and the planned activities.

A great place to stay
We were a party of seven, with a mixture of adults and children. Franck and Ghis took time before we arrived to understand our needs and make sure the house was set up for us. The house itself is set in beautiful grounds and decorated to a very high standard, with everything we needed. We had a very relaxing time. The island itself is quite quiet, but there is a restaurant within a short walk of the house and Avignon is a short drive away. Supermarkets are a little further, but not too far, and there is a farm shop selling fresh fruit and vegetables close by.

Aangename ruime vakantiewoning op enkele minuutjes van Avignon
Aangenaam ruime vakantiewoning voorzien van alle comfort voor een zorgeloze vakantie. Goed verzorgd zwembad met luxueuze ligstoelen en parasols in een grote tuin met fruitbomen. Uitgeruste grote keuken. Perfect verblijf voor twee gezinnen met kinderen vanaf 8 jaar of vijf koppels. Op een rustige, landelijke locatie op slechts enkele minuutjes van het centrum van Avignon. Ideaal als uitvalsbasis of om ter plekke te blijven.

Absolutely wonderfull, the real "Provence" as we like it, and such a comfortable house .....and pool
For our first visit in France, touring for 6 months with our family, this has been so far one of the best places where we have been staying. Everything is perfectly as described on the website, and the pool is indeed fantastic, especially with young children. We totally recommend this house, and don't hesitate to contact Franck the owner : he speaks fluent english, and knows how to satisfy your needs (he works in the tourism industry and used to run a lodge in Africa ...) We loved this place, and would have extended our stay if we didn't have a scheduled program. Thanks again Franck, and Ghis.

Idyllic, wonderful stay!
Franck and Ghis were truly amazing hosts. Our family of four stayed at their home for five days in late August, enjoying relaxed mornings in the pool and visiting the sights around Avignon in the afternoons and evenings. They have a wonderful property with an enormous lawn and orchards, and the home is very comfortable. They set us up with everything we needed and were extremely flexible and helpful. Their home is a great place to spend time and also a perfect base from which to explore beautiful Provence. We are certain to return. Highly recommended!

La maison était extrêmement propre et très bien équipée ! Le linge de maison d’excellente qualité ! Elle est parfaite pour plusieurs familles avec des enfants. La piscine est très agréable, sécurisée et parfaite pour les enfants en bas âge. Le chat des propriétaires « piano » est adorable et ne pose aucun problème durant le séjour. La maison est idéalement située pour visiter Avignon et ses environs. Tout a été parfait ! Je recommande sans hésitation et j’y retournerai avec grand plaisir si l’occasion se présente 👍

Sommer im Paradies
Die Lage ist traumhaft. Der Garten bietet unglaublich viel. Jeder findet eine Nische. Aber man kann sich auch bestens mit diversen Bewegungsspielen unterhalten (Volleyball, Badminton, Speedminton, etc.). Wir haben sehr viel Zeit im Pool verbracht. Die Küche ist zweckmässig undqualitativ gut ausgestattet. Einzig in Bezug auf die Stückzahl beim Geschirr und den Gläsern hätten wir uns manchmal ein paar mehr gewünscht. Toll ist die Terrasse mit dem grossen Tisch. Für 10 Personen hat es genug Platz. Wir haben dort nicht nur gegessen sondern auch viel Zeit mit Spielen verbracht. Die Zimmer sind zweckmässig eingerichtet und die Betten sind gut.
