A gorgeous old stone Mas with 12m pool, pool house with kitchen and within walking distance of the small village of Saint Antonin-du-Var. Mas Vignes is a picture-perfect spot nestling amidst the Côtes de Provence vineyards.
We were thrilled to add Mas Vignes to our Provence portfolio suitable for large families looking for somewhere special to escape. There are five ensuite bedrooms with air conditioning over three floors in an old stone building that has been lovingly modernised and adapted over the years. The modern pool house and large pool are unquestionably where you will spend most of your time, nestled below the house and surrounded by lush planting with its own 10m boules area and table tennis. There are numerous terraces and relaxation areas around the 2-acre gardens as well as a gas barbecue and eating area which is easily accessed via steps from the kitchen.
Well thought out and decorated with style inside, the owners have retained the authenticity of this lovely stone building. There's a well-equipped kitchen, two comfortable living areas and a study for those that might need to do a little work whilst on holiday. The ground floor and first floor bedrooms offer tranquil views over the vineyards that surround Mas Vignes and three of the five spacious rooms also offer the flexibility of being configured as twin beds or doubles.
Nestling on the outskirts of St Antonin du Var (1km), the house is in a peaceful spot but with easy access to numerous Provençal sites of interest. St Antonin du Var has a small grocer selling fresh local vegetables grown in the fields below the village, a boulangerie, bistro and cafe, whilst the larger, medieval village of Lorgues (10km) has a much larger well attended Tuesday market and various restaurants to cater for most palates including a famous truffle restaurant and Michelin starred establishments. There are also another two well regarded restaurants within a few minutes’ drive of Mas Vignes. Tourtour (20km), known as the 'village in the sky', is charming whilst Entrecasteaux (10km) boasts a chateau and lovely gardens. Within 3km is an outdoor excursion centre with bikes for rent (including e-bikes) as well as canoe trips and climbing experiences in local gorges for the young and old. Lac Sainte-Croix (43km) to the north is a huge freshwater lake at the bottom of the Verdon Gorge where there are some pleasantly cool beaches with easy parking. The Valensole lavender plateau (70km) is also spectacular in July, and for beach lovers the closest one is either Sainte Maxime (60km) or Fréjus (57km). Two international airports Marseille and Nice are equidistant (109km).
