Rob from Hoboken,
Merveilleuses vacances en famille, domaine idéale, bien équipé, au calme, accueil au top!
Wim, Benny en Marie-jo from Lierde (België ),
Bij aankomst werden wij hartelijk verwelkomd door de eigenaars Katrijn, Fré en de 3 kinderen met inbegrepen een verrassingsmand aangeboden door het huis met fijne drank- en streekproducten. De woning voldeed helemaal zoals vermeld op de site, alles was aanwezig. Mas de Chênes , evenals de Gite du Nourriguier zijn zeer charmante verblijven die ons gezin reeds diverse jaren heeft bezocht; beide woningen zijn gelegen op een groot terrein van een 7-tal ha, hebben een mooi uitzicht op de Alpilles en de omliggende wijngaarden en fruitbomen. De Mas heeft 2 mooie zwembaden die dagelijks worden onderhouden, zijn ook kindvriendelijk ( met alarm ) , rustig gelegen in en rond de mooie omgeving van bloemen, mooie natuur en bomen.
Recent bezochten we dit maal de Gite du Nourriguier en ook deze woning biedt alle comfort. Onze bevinding : heel de streek in en rond de Alpilles is een aanrader voor mensen die houden van uitstapjes, wandelen en fietsen. In de onmiddellijke omgeving van Beaucaire vind je mooie dorpjes als Saint Rémy de Provence, Fontveille, Les Baux, Maussane, Gordes, Pont Du Gard, Arles, Avignon, Nimes, Les Saintes Maries de la Mer ed. Ook aan kleurrijke lokale marktjes met streekproducten is er geen nood, die zijn op korte afstand dagelijks te vinden de onmiddellijke omgeving. Wijn liefhebbers komen er zeker aan hun trekken en het Provençaalse eten is er steeds te genieten !
Kortom, het is er leuk vertoeven voor een aangenaam en ontspannen verblijf; een aanrader en de perfecte bestemming voor een gezinsvakantie.
Wij - Wim, Marie-jo en Benny - kijken reeds uit naar een toekomstig vakantiebezoek !
Dank en vele groetjes.Walter en Rosita from edegem,
hallo Katrijn,
Wij hadden in juli van dit jaar een fantastische vakantie met ons voltallig gezin van 19 personen.Klein en groot
hebben ervan genoten.Wat cultuur in de buurt, fijne wandelingen,en genieten aan het zwembad, 's avonds barbecue''n. Alles was aanwezig. Zelfs onze universiteit student heeft er kunnen studeren en is nog geslaagd ook.. Door de grote ruimte had ieder vrijheid en dat was fijn met zulke grote grpep.
Volgende zomer gaat het ons niet lukken om allen samen vakantie te nemen, maar als het ons lukt komen we zeker terug.
