One Week not Enough
A lovely spacious house set in peaceful gardens in an excellent location. So much to do and see on your doorstep. Dinner on the terrace at the Bistrot de Saumane is highly recommended. The perfect base for a wonderful holiday, one week was not enough!
RESPONSE FROM CLAIRE & MARTIN: We agree, there are so many activities and places to visit nearby. We discover another gem each time we go!
Perfect for Families!
A delightful house near to the market town of L'Isle sur la Sorgues. The house has an excellent kitchen, facilities to eat indoor or outdoor and a quiet environment in which to relax and read - or swim in a fine pool. Recommended for family use. There is also a superb golf course nearby with an excellent restaurant.
We would happily wish to return having had a great holiday there.
RESPONSE FROM CLAIRE AND MARTIN: Thank you for your kind words, do come back again next year!
Stunning Sunset
Fantastic house in fantastic location. Brilliant for cycling, walking and relaxing, with some fascinating villages and towns nearby. Stunning sunset, quiet dawns. Overall, it was a superb place and the holiday was perfect.
RESPONSE FROM CLAIRE AND MARTIN: Thank you Agnieszka and Martin, we are so pleased you enjoyed your holiday. Yes the sunsets are wonderful, they light up the whole sky!
Beautifully Appointed
We spent a few days at Claire and Martin's beautiful home in Provence in October. So much more generous in space than the 3 bedrooms suggest! They have done a truly amazing job bringing the house firmly into the 21st Century whilst maintaining the typical French charm. It is beautifully appointed and equipped with everything you may need.
The gardens are fabulous and so private. We were fortunate with having superb weather and enjoyed the afternoons lazing around and swimming in the lovely sized pool.
In short a beautiful home in a great area of France, definitely worth a visit.
RESPONSE FROM CLAIRE AND MARTIN: You were indeed very lucky with the weather in mid October!
Life Really Can't Get Much Better
We came across Mas Bois Carré by sheer happenstance and what a delight it proved to be! I arrived with decent pillows and my full batterie de cuisine because I know that rental properties never have them. Wrong! The house is beautifully and comprehensively equipped to the highest standard. We had some wonderful meals locally and further afield; mostly though we were happy to enjoy cooking superb locally sourced food in the house and enjoy relaxing evenings on the terrace with the odd glass of fantastic rosé. Life can’t really get much better. Apart from the day when Geneviève, Claire and Martin’s totally delightful housekeeper whisked up an amazing mayonnaise for us to have with our artichokes for lunch. Superb.
RESPONSE FROM CLAIRE AND MARTIN: Thank you both - yes we are very lucky to have Geneviève to welcome guests and be on hand in case of any problem. She is a gem!
Ravissante !
Nous étions venus l'an dernier et n'avions qu'un seul souhait : revenir ! Et cette semaine que nous venons de passer à Bois-Carré a ravi une fois de plus toute la famille. Ravissante, confortable dans les moindres petits détails, elle allie tout le charme de la Provence et la "delightful" touche britannique.Bois-Carré est idéalement situé pour visiter la région (côté Luberon ou côté Comtat Venaissin), à la fois perdu au milieu de la nature et proche de toutes les facilités (activités, commerces, restaurants...). Nous sommes par ailleurs toujours touchés par l'accueil chaleureux de nos hôtes et de Geneviève, attentifs à tous nos besoins.
RÉPONSE DE MARTIN & CLAIRE. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez profité de votre deuxième séjour chez nous. À l'année prochaine !
