Mas de Capelou

"It was a slice of heaven. The property, the location, the owner. Just a beautiful experience. And the restaurant, just perfect. The food, service and premise were all extraordinary. We had a wonderful time and would definitely go back."

"Completely out of everyone's control but there are a lot of mosquitoes, so make sure to bring bug spray!"

"We stayed for a week in mid-September in an apartment as a base for exploring the local area. I could easily write a thousand words about our stay, but our overriding thoughts are that Mas de Capelou was absolutely perfect. It's pretty remote and on an Island next to Avignon which is mainly agricultural, so it's very quiet and peaceful with only the occasional tractor breaking the peace - fine by me! Avignon is an easy 10 minute drive, with its wonderful history and many good restaurants. The apartment was lovely with everything we needed, the pool was awesome and the cocktails in the on-site Restaurant (which is very popular with the locals too) were a perfect way to end a day. To finish, Valerie and her sons were the perfect hosts - always friendly, helpful and full of suggestions. We will be back..."

"There was nothing we didn't like to be honest! It's worth being aware that there are mosquitos at night, but then I don't think I've ever been on a holiday without a few bites! Be sensible, spray up, take some bite cream and don't let it put you off."

"A mini paradise, a great place to relax. Valerie is a great host, very welcoming, and attentive to the guests. Highly recommend."

"Aucun."

"The owner was lovely. He spoke fluently in english, so that was helpful. He was very charming and welcoming. The house is beautiful, really relaxing. Lovely breakfast with local products. Fresh. The swimming pool is very pretty. Lots of space, not on top of each other's. You can have tapas and drinks in the garden in their facilities called "La Brousse". It's very handy when you don't want to go out again after a long day drive. Great cocktails!!!"

"The only negative will be that we found the swimming pool a bit too cold. It is supposed to be at 28° but felt more like 22°/24°...."

"Great setting and vibe. Peaceful, interesting, inviting venue. Lovingly attended to. Wonderful to be able to pick pears out of the orchard. Apartment was spacious and beautifully decorated. Lots of attention to detail. Dinner venue was an unexpected bonus, a real treat!"

"Nothing at all, everything was perfect, thanks."

"Perfect place to stay, very relaxing atmosphere in the beatiful gardens. Our host Valerie was most friendly, even when we arrived very early in the morning (as we had discussed prior to our arrival), it was no problem at all for her to welcome us to our family room. The room was beautiful and spacious. Breakfast was also very good, including freshly made Bread and croissants and lots of delicious homemade jam and juices. The city of Avignon was about ten minutes drive away. We parked on the isle side, and too the free ferry to the city. Our kids loves the ferry ride!"

"Aucun."

"It was clean and quiet. In a peaceful environment yet the kids enjoyed themselves in the park, the drawing area and the swimming pool. We loved the rooms’ decoration and the breakfast was perfect."

"Aucun."

"Setting, hospitality, ambience. As if you’d bought your own country house!"

"Nothing!"

"We absolutely loved our stay at Mas De Capelou, the grounds are so so beautiful. Valerie and the other owners have really thought of absolutely everything to make your stay as relaxing and special as possible. Things like a drawing room for the kids, yoga mats to use in the garden, a stocked fridge in the pool area that you can charge to your room. We travelled with our two girls and they loved the pool, exploring the gardens and pear orchard. There’s a fab tapas restaurant on site we had dinner at one night with delicious cocktails and there’s a full kitchen to use in the pool area which we cooked in on the second night. Breakfast is also so fresh and delicious. Thank you! We can’t wait to come back."

"No notes, we loved it all."

"The friendly welcoming owners. The beautiful setting and the great restaurant!"
