Excellent Stay
Fantastic stay in a lovely quiet location. We were a bunch of old friends and used Mas Des Roche as our base for 2 weeks of the Rugby World Cup. The villa has easy driving access to Marseille, Aix En Provence and via the autoroute up to Avignon, Chateau Neuf de Pape and Toulouse. We loved coming back to the villa for some rest and relaxation. The entertaining spaces are perfect for big long lunches with friends. Being at the top of a valley and shaded by pine trees there was a lovely cool breeze. Plenty of rooms and space for privacy too. Anne Marie was a wonderfully host, very informative and helpful. Any issues we had over our stay were dealt with immediately. Would go back!

Disappointing for the price
A lovely property for a large group but mainly not very clean. We found out issues as the week went on, units in kitchen looked clean but inside doors had stains and finger marks on them. Shower drains full of hairs, grease and grime . Kitchen drawers had mice droppings in them which was unacceptable. We were also asked to look after their cat as the owners were going to their second home a 2 hr drive away!why wern’t We told about this? We were a group of 16 so what if someone had an allergy? Unfortunately we will not be returning

Beautiful setting for a reunion!
A wonderful home with multiple distinct living areas and indoor/outdoor spaces. Our reunion of 3 families spent many hours by the pool, preparing meals in the outdoor kitchen and playing cards. The view is spectacular. Close to both Marseilles and Aix en Provence. A fantastic home with kind hosts.

A lovely spot just outside of Marseille
We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at Anne-Marie and Gabriel’s house. The location and amenities at the property were perfect for a large party for a hen do with lots of space and areas to enjoy including the boules pitch and we loved the outdoor kitchen and pool. Anne Marie was brilliant at communicating with us before the trip and very forthcoming with ways to help accommodate us including an early check in. Thank you Anne Marie and Gabriel! 5 stars!

Fantastic Villa - HIGHLY recommend
Everything was wonderful. we stayed as a group of friends and the villa was brilliant, it was modern, clean, stylish, massive and perfect spaces to chill as a big group on the terraces and by the poolside. We used the summer kitchen by the poolside to make a big BBQ. we enjoyed the quiet surrounds and went on day time walks in the hills. We also had a great day trip to the vineyards close to the villa they were lovely and delightful wine (Rose, red and white). We loved the pool and hot tub. Anne Marie was so incredibly helpful in everything to do with organizing - helped with taxis, food shop etc etc. We all had the most amazing stay at this gorgeous villa. Its definitely *****5 Star accomodation. We all want to come back again! its only 20mins in a taxi from Marseille airport - so perfect. THANK YOU Anne-Marie

Wonderful house with lots of accommodation and beautiful setting and a very friendly host
This was the most impressive house we have stayed in. The (well equipped) accommodation is spread over a number of floors and copes well with large numbers (we were 19). Even the weather was wonderful in late October which meant we were able to explore the surrounding countryside. The host was very helpful and attentive, and responded quickly to any questions. Convenient location close to Marseille airport and also Aix. We would be very happy to return and are happy to recommend it.

Séjour merveilleux
Nous avons loué la totalité du Mas des Roches pour un événement familial. Il s’agit d’une sublime bâtisse qui a l’avantage de proposer des studios indépendants et de nombreux logements. La grande cuisine extérieure donnant sur la piscine avec vue dégagée est très appréciable. Le petit + : sauna et bain à remous. Les hôtes sont très accueillants, sympathiques et arrangeants. Un grand merci pour ce séjour que nous n’oublierons pas !
