Breathtaking Terrace Views at the Foot of the Ancient Castle

This is a unique property that requires some effort to reap its rewards. It’s obviously a work of art for the owner who has fashioned it to fit his artistic aesthetic with antique furniture, a grand piano and eclectic artwork. Lots of style but substance, not as much. The elaborate hand held shower contraption in the downstairs bathroom was broken and rendered the beautiful big bathtub inoperable. For two couples this meant sharing the upstairs shower which for us wasn’t a real problem but it might be for you. The parking situation was very difficult. You cannot really drive to the front door but must shlep your bags up a very steep street. And finding parking was not always easy. During the last half of our week all of the surrounding parking lots were unavailable due to an auto race that takes up all the usual parking areas. On one of those nights we had to park in the next village over and walk 15 minutes to reach the house. There are also two steep internal staircases that bothered me, the one person in our party who has bad knees. However, I knew about that in advance so could not complain. The house is well stocked with kitchen and dining implements but it wasn’t clear what could be used and what was private. On the other hand, the rooftop terrace makes up for a lot of shortcomings. It is nothing short of spectacular and we ate breakfast up there and since the weather was glorious, drank our cocktails while marveling at the sunsets and views over the town. I recommend

We had an amazing time in Beaucaire! The place was amazing - great window, amazing light, and the rooftop patio was to die for. We loved getting cheese and fruit at the Sunday market and then watching the sunset with an amazing spread from our perch. Very sweet welcome and super helpful to us throughout our stay. Thanks for a great time!

The house is quite impressive. It is spacious and well furnished. It’s at the end of the street and borders the grounds of the château, so it’s very private. The third story deck/patio is incredible for breakfast or a late afternoon aperitif. Communication with the owner and the manager was very easy. As was explained on the website, free parking is available at a reasonable distance, but depending on how full the parking lot is, it can be a substantial walk. Also, the last 50 m is at a steep incline. This will only be a concern to people with reduced mobility. Beaucaire itself appears to be very blue-collar, but it is centrally located and a short drive to Avignon, Pont du Gard, Nimes and Arles. I highly recommend this accommodation.

We loved staying in the old city. House was extremely interesting. Had a great time visiting Pont du Gard, Les Baux, Carriers de Lumieres, Avignon, St. Remy etc. There was a big day at the castle our last day there...animations and spectacles. Be aware that anyone with mobility issues would have a tough time walking up the street and there are a lot of stairs in the home. There is no tv or microwave. Not a problem for us but if you really need them be sure to ask about it. WIFI worked well. Basic supplies are needed such as coffee filters, TP, paper towels etc. I did ask the manager to get instructions for the dishwasher and washing machine in English as they are quite different from what we have in the US. Overall our group had a wonderful time even though the weather was iffy. The guy at La Terrasse in the square close by is a hoot. Fake fireplace is a riot. Enjoy and relax on the terrace at the top of the house! Sue

This is a magical place, set up with care and everything you’ll need to be content at a VRBO. We felt like royalty during our stay! Jeff was super responsive. Excellent base to visit the region:) We hope to come back here soon and definitely stay longer! Thank you Jeff!!

The house in Beaucaire was very clean and spacious for our family of 5. The bottle of wine that Jeffrey left was a kind welcoming. We loved sitting in the music room and on the large terrace. My only complaint was that there was no television or phone as had been advertised and considering we were staying for 2 weeks during the World Cup and Tour de France, this was a huge disappointment. After touring all day, we were looking forward to catching a bit of the games. I suggest that the tv and phone be taken off the VRBO page.

This house is spacious, beautifully renovated, and in what we thought was a wonderful location. It is close to all of the attractions of the Rhône vallée but far from places filled with tour buses. Very relaxing in every way. We loved dining at Madame Cecile’s on the old square just below the house and walking to Tarascon to visit their wonderful castle and for the heart stopping bull games. We also took in Nîmes, Arles, and Avignon. Fantastic memories!

The house is exquisitely decorated with the most amazing patio. We loved staying here, it was comfortable and spacious and the local area along with the people were wonderful . It is perfectly situated for a home base while visiting the many beautiful sights.
