Sehr schöner Urlaub!

Sehr ruhige Lage, wunderschön, manchmal schlenderte ein Wildschwein über den Rasen. Der Pool ist sehr gut, schön gemacht. Der Vermieter ist professionel, kümmert sich sofort, wenn etwas sein sollte.

Traumhafter Blick und absolute Ruhe

Wer keine Serpentinen scheut und es auch gerne abgelegen mag, der ist hier richtig. Ein traumhafter Blick von der Terasse in Schucht, auf Berge und Pferdewiese sowie ein nicht gechlorter herrlicher Pool laden zum relaxen ein und wer der Weg von ca 8 km nicht scheut, dem stehen Lacoste, Menerbe, Apt und Bonnieux als nahe Ausflugsziele/Einkaufsmöglichkeiten zur Verfügung. Die Vermieter sind sehr bemüht und entgegenkommend.Kleiner Haken: Das dritte Schlafzimmer mit den 2 Einzelbetten hat kein schönes Badezimmer.Die Wäsche wird einmalig pro Wo gewechselt, aber die Waschmaschine ist ja auch noch da.Ein zweiter Kühlschrank hilft den Großeinkauf unterzubringen und verführt dazu eher zu Hause auf der Terasse mit Hilfe des Kohlegrills zu essen--denn nirgendwo sonst sitzt man so herrlich.

Bain de calme et de sérénité provencal

MAS CÔTÉ SUD dépasse les attentes qui sont générées par la vue des photos. Tout est parfait, parsemé de délicates attentions pour le confort des locataires. Rien ne manque dans la cuisine ou ailleurs, nous avons tout ce qu’il faut pour cuisiner ou se sécher les cheveux. La propreté et l'entretien des lieux sont impeccables. L’environnement extérieur est d’une rare sérénité et d’une extraordinaire beauté. Il ne faut surtout pas oublier nos chaussures de marche car même les novices comme nous se laissent emporter par le plaisir de la randonnée sur les sentiers du domaine. Notre séjour de 3 semaines fut un réel bonheur. Merci à Mathilde et Bernard qui sont des gens très accueillants et attentifs à nos besoins.

Owner response:Un grand Merci Lison. Rien ne nous fais plus plaisir que de bonnes vacances pour nos "guests". Nous souhaitons avoir encore beaucoup de vacanciers aussi chaleureux et sympathiques. Bien à vous. Bernard&Mathilde.

We stayed at Cote Sud for 2 weeks in October with 2 other couples. We had a wonderful stay and loved our rural retreat. The villa has plenty of room with 3 bedrooms and it was great to each have our own bathroom. The weather was beautiful and it was so nice to come home from a day of sightseeing and relax on our terrace with a nice glass of French wine and admire the stunning views across the valley. Bernard and Mathilde were wonderful hosts and always friendly and helpful, with lots of good suggestions for touring, walks or delicious restaurants to sample. Some nights we cooked in the well equiped kitchen from produce gathered at local markets. We ate at all the restaurants in Buoux and highly recommend them all. The area has lovely walks from the villa and the valley is so peaceful and beautiful, we have such lovely photos and memories of our stay. Thank you for your kind hospitality

Owner response:Thank you very much Rosemary.We hope also to have many others guests as friendly as you and your friends were . Very best regards.Bernard & Mathilde

We went 2 weeks in September, much better period than I thought it would be: nice weather and no crowd! The farmhouse was very clean, fully furnished (incl bed for our baby) with a lovely interior. We also enjoyed the stunning view of the valley... We still have great memories of our horse rides experience in the Luberon!!

Owner response:Thank you very much Viki, Mathilde will be happy to hear that you appreciate her work!! You had a great idea to come after the summer to enjoy one of the best period at a cheaper price!! Best regards. Bernard

Provence at its best

Guest: Ian and Lorriane (Essex, UK)
Date of Stay: 05/02/09 Review Submitted: 05/21/09

We had a wonderful week in early May. The location and setting of the house is fabulous and must surely be one of the most stunning in this part of Provence. There's plenty to do and see locally, and there are some lovely walks from the property up into the Luberon hills. The accomodation was clean, comfortable, quiet and relaxing, with some great views. Bernard was an excellent host and our stay was a very memorable one.

Owner response:Dear Ian and Lorraine, Thank you so much for your review. It is right that Domaine de Marrenon is a very special spot and that around there is so much to do and see (typical Provence villages, Pope castle in Avignon, Aix en Provence and museums, 12th century Fort in Buoux etc...) that often our guest have to come back after just a week stay !!!... Best regards. Bernard

Wonderful place to relax

Guest: Kristi and George (Calgary AB)
Date of Stay: 04/18/09 Review Submitted: 05/04/09

This property looks exactly the same as the pictures. We only stayed for a week but had such a wonderful time we could have stayed for a month. It is very peaceful and quiet yet not far from several interesting places to visit. The house is very clean and the property is immaculately maintained. The owner speaks excellent English and was very helpful. I would highly recommend this property.

Owner response:Thank you Kristi and George!! Yes, Mathilde and I are happy to speak English. By experience we understand that it allow us to help our guest as well as possible. It must be Mathilde' s Belgium blood but she is very "touchy" to offer to our guests a nice and clean house!!!

Home Away from Home

Cote Sud is a wonderful place to stay for a short or long holiday. However, you will never want to leave. The countryside is beautiful, the owners extremely hospitable and everything within the home if first rate, including the soft sheets and towels. Buoux is truly a unique hamlet and has become our and our children's home away from home.

Owner response:Thank you very much Viky. We always have a great pleasure to receive our guests and give them our best advices for activities, restaurants etc.. we like. I must say that it is a great idea to enjoy the September period with the usual good weather for hiking, cycling or visits at a lower price than in high season.
