Mas traditionel, emplacement exceptionel au sud des Alpilles pres de Fontvieille

We travelled from Australia to celebrate a significant birthday with family and friends. Mas Julian was the perfect venue. The house and grounds are beautiful and spacious, it is a wonderful base for exploring the many lovely towns and villages of Provence and the walking trails of Les Alpilles. Wolfgang is a generous and responsive host, who also provided great information about local shopping and dining. The house is well stocked with cooking utensils and appliances, dining settings, glasses, cutlery and serving platters so you can shop at local markets and cook at home for a large group. We loved our time there and we hope to return, as one week was not enough. Thank you Wolfgang and Dominique for the opportunity to stay in your home. I want a photo.

We are a family of 15 in total, from ages 7 months to 72 years, gathering together for a reunion. Mas Julian provided comfort and a central point for exploring many of the towns of Provence. The nearest town, Fontvielle, was charming, with everything you need for supplies. Wolfgang (owner) was very helpful at all times, and the home was well appointed and the grounds beautifully landscape. The children enjoyed the pool and the trampoline. We had a wonderful experience thanks to Mas Julian and all it had to offer us.

Mas Julian is an extraordinary place. Tucked away in a beautifully landscaped garden and set among olive orchards at the foot of the Alpilles, the villa is both elegant and comfortable. The location is ideal - a few kilometers by quiet roads to Fontvielle, 20 mins to Arles and its Roman amphitheater, and not much further to Nimes, Pont du Gard, and St. Remy. The property abuts the Parc National des Alpilles with trails that run into the hills as far as Les-Baux-de-Provence and beyond. Wolfgang is a generous and thoughtful host. Thank you for a lovely stay!

The house is very comfortable for a group. The drive up is impressive and the grounds were suffering from a drought, but lovely. We used 5 of the rooms. The owner left a very nice welcome list with restaurant recommendations in the surrounding area. We cooked some meals, shopped for food nearby in Tarascon. We had lovely evenings on the patio. Each bedroom had functioning AC units.The pool was lovely, although cold this time of year. If I have one complaint it is that the house was completely shut up, exterior shutters included, when we arrived and it had not been cleaned properly. I believe it is because their regular cleaner was out. The beds and sheets were clean and ready for us, but the floors had not been cleaned. Each guest gets one bath towel and one hand towel, no washcloth. There are beach towels for the pool. 3 of the 5 bedrooms we used had no showers, only baths. There is a washer and dryer available as need be, but we were not told that the dryer needs to be emptied of accumulated water, because it does not vent outside. We figured it out when the dryer stopped drying. One of two ovens was operational. The microwave did not work. When we arrived, the screen for the stove hood had fallen down and it was missing one screw so that we could not fix it. These are small complaints in the larger picture, but worth noting. The house has a relaxed elegance that is lovely. If it had been opened up and cleaned and ready for us I would have no complaints.

We had an extended family vacation for 10 people. Plenty of room, beautiful house and surrounding property and a great location to everything you want to see in Provence.

There were eight of house, six adults and three teens. We had a great time together. Highlights included eating our meals on the terrace, swimming in the pool and lounging in the outdoor sitting area. Some of us played ping pong. We made many day trips to other towns in the area. A wonderful week together.
