Our guests speak best of the property. They often retain the absolute calm and the immense spaces, terraces and living areas of the estate, an ideal context when the group can go up to 18 people and even 24 with the GRANGE option.
The petanque games at night, the night lighting, the heated swimming pool (on request) and, optionally, (see the "Additional photos" section), the lounge bar and the large games room of the GRANGE, are also popular.

The space
Sunny Provence awaits you in this beautifully restored sheepfold. Its impressive stone facade embodies the rich rural heritage of the region. The interiors are modern and embellished with rustic touches.
The sheepfold of Aix en Provence, a former agricultural property, comprises 2 buildings, the "Grand Mas" with its inner courtyard and 6 bedrooms, and the "Petit Mas", an old manor house that has become a guest house with 3 additional bedrooms, which can accommodate 18 people for the price shown in the ad. There is a possibility, on express request, to add a 3rd building, the BARN, for larger groups (up to 24 people) or those wishing to benefit from a large games room/bar lounge for an additional €320/day (See the "Additional photos" section specifically dedicated to the BARN).
Provence is a renowned region of France, and guests can enjoy its fruits as much as they like from this property. An internationally renowned golf course, Pont Royal, and excellent vineyards are just minutes away, while the charming little town of Saint-Cannat is less than 2 km away, where herb cheeses, sausages, tapenades and other delicacies await. Venture into the Luberon mountains and its famous little villages, Lourmarin, Ménerbes or Lacoste to the north, or discover the famous Calanques National Park or climb the Sainte Victoire Mountain, immortalised many times by the painter Paul Cézanne, to the south. You will always end up in the city of Aix-en-Provence, an architectural jewel of the 17th century, the heart and capital of Provence, just 20 minutes away, with a plethora of markets and restaurants offering unique and colourful Provençal dishes in ancient streets. Finally, return home at the golden hour and enjoy a glass of local "Côte de Provence" red wine in the airy courtyard or in the air-conditioned comfort of the sumptuous dining room. At the sheepfold, you can discover Provence, so make the most of it.
