Overview

Le Mas de Gancel offers the very best of provençal lifestyle, all within a most central location for exploring the Inland Provence region. This exceptional home has plenty of space for up to 18 guests, and acts as a fabulous locale for family reunions or gatherings of friends.

Enjoy long provençal style meals on the stone terrace overlooking the small vineyard, lounge by the pool, or wander by foot to the nearby grocer or local winery for a tasting. Also within walking distance are 1 restaurant, bar, bakery and cafe, Roman Temple, nature trails, skate park, and basketball court.

The greatest asset of this magnificently renovated farmhouse is that it can comfortably accommodate larger groups while maintaining a cozy, comfortable atmosphere.

The house offers 6000 square feet of living space with nine air-conditioned bedrooms. The ground floor is dedicated to communal spaces – kitchen, dining and large living areas with the upper two levels then dedicated to bedrooms and corresponding bathrooms.

Le Mas de Gancel is located at the foot of the Luberon Mountain range in the heart of Provence, only 30 minutes from Aix en Provence and 45 minutes from St Rémy. The central location here is exceptional, and while the property is surrounded by neighboring properties within this small residential area, it is a great getaway for large groups of friends or families. This is a truly idyllic Provençal experience.
