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.
As well as standard self-catered "Gîte" accommodation, we offer a range of services to make Mas Saint-Antoine "more than just a Gîte", ranging from local information services, mini Boule tournaments, to poolside BBQ/Pizza or Provencal evenings under the plane tree - (see Other Services which are organised by the friendly New Zealand owners on site)
