Ultra functional, practical, spacious, clean, tasteful. During the Avignon Festival, 12 minutes from the Palais des Papes, with a huge pool and absolute calm — it's a great deal.

Wonderful break. The location and the restoration of the property are remarkable. We stayed in the Bastide which is perfect for a group. The pool is superb.
