House with garden and pool on Barthelasse island near the center of Avignon

Wonderful house in a green setting, surrounded by fields.
The house is very comfortable, functional and very bright.
A separate bedroom downstairs with its own bathroom for sharing the house with friends without embarrassment. Upstairs, the master bedroom has an air conditioner.
The garden is adjacent to the living room, you can rest there in the shade of a huge plane tree. Hammock and deckchairs are waiting for you.
A barbecue is also available on the terrace.
There are bicycles (4 or 5 adults) that you can borrow to stroll on the island or to go to the city center with the river shuttle (1 km).
A ping pong table is available.
The pool (11x3m) is to share with us in good intelligence, the priority is naturally given to the renters.
New:
A separate bedroom with its own bathroom (for 2 people) has been added in a separate room next to the house.

Great place to spend your holiday

Great place and very friendly hosts who did everything they could for a relaxed and great holiday. The house and pool are fantastic and also the surroundings. Villeneuve d’Avignon is very nice and maybe even beter for dinner than Avignon. We definitely recommend to spend at least a week in this house.

Great jumping-off point for Provence

Two families - 4 adults and two 3 year olds - found this house to be a great base for a week in Provence. Christine and Martin are excellent hosts; friendly and responsive. They even invited us over to the main house for wine together with their two sons. It was too cold to use the pool while we were there, but the cottage is great, and the location on Bartholesse island is also excellent.

Thank you very much for your nice appreciation. It was a pleasure to welcome you, your family and your friends and we are very happy you spent a good time in our house and in the aerea - even if the TGV strikes disturbed a lot your timing. We also appreciated the evening shared with you at home for the wine degustation and typical products - and your son and his friend were so cute ... Christine

Holiday with Family

Christine and Martin were excellent hosts and helpful advising on what to do and ensuring our stay was great - martin even set up a TV for Olympic opening ceremony. Well kept and very well equipped peaceful house in a rural location in the island close to Avignon. Having a car is ideal as walking/cycling in the heat to Avignon is not great. A nice pool was perfect for relaxing and cooling down. We really liked Villeneuve and enjoyed several of the restaurants in the which was beautiful and less crowded than Avignon. We really enjoyed our stay and wished we could have stayed longer as the area has so much to offer. We hope to return.

The property was as advertised, attractive and modern internally, clean, nice bathrooms, lovely large fridge / freezer and dishwasher, all very well equipped throughout including air coolers in bedrooms and a great location for visiting Villeneuve-lès-avignon & Avignon plus easy transfers for air and rail transport locations for our family members dropping in and out on their own travels. Christine was a great host, available immediately for any queries but there were very few as the rental is so well set up. The pool was lovely too. We had a perfect holiday.

Es handelt sich um ein sehr schönes Haus, mit allem, was wir für einen gelungenen Aufenthalt benötigt haben. Es ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr ruhig gelegen, der Pool ist fantastisch und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Vermieter sind bei Bedarf erreichbar und wenn demnächst Glasfaser liegt, wird es auch mit einer leistungsstarken Wifi Anbindung besser klappen, als mit der heutigen Router Lösung via SIM-Karte.

Unglaublich schöne Unterkunft. Tolles Haus mit genug Betten, schöne Einrichtung. In der Küche ist alles vorhanden. Es gibt genug Bäder und der Garten, bzw die Gärten sind wunderschön! Sonnenuntergänge auf der Terrasse und einen mega grossen Pool. Es war wirklich so idyllisch und perfekt! Christine war super hilfreich und nett und hat immer schnell geantwortet! Die Lage ist einfach super, mit unserem Sohn war die kurze kostenlose Bootsfahrt auf die andere Seite der Rhone täglich eine Attraktion. Würden definitiv wieder kommen!

Heel fijn huis, heerlijke plek

We hebben een geweldige week gehad. Ondanks de hittegolf :). We waren met 7 en dat paste perfect. Huis is fijn en van alle gemakken voorzien. Prima keuken om te koken en ook BBQ. Zwembad is erg mooi aangelegd en heel lekker. We hebben een paar keer gefietst (5 fietsen!) en hebben ook een paar keer de auto bij camping Bagatelle onder de brug gezet (5 min rijden) om zo Avignon centrum in te lopen. Grote supermarkt op 10 minuten rijden. Villeneuve les Avignon is erg leuk dorp met lekkere restaurantjes en prachtig fort, kasteel en klooster. En op zaterdag Brocante onder het kasteel. Onze gastheer en gastvrouw waren heel prettig en gezellig in de omgang en hebben ons veel tips gegeven. Brood van bakker naast camping is heerlijk!!!! Kortom: hele fijne plek!

Reposant

Le gîte est idéalement situé. Il est facile de découvrir la région. Le gîte est confortable et il y fait bon vivre. Le prêt des vélos est un véritable plus car il est aisé de circuler à Avignon et Villeneuve les Avignon à vélo. Les hôtes sont charmants, discrets mais présents et réactifs lorsque cela s'est montré nécessaire. Une attention particulière doit être portée sur les escaliers et la piscine avec de jeunes enfants.

Très bon accueil de Christine. Maison très propre, spacieuse et très bien aménagée. Nous avons adoré nous asseoir sous le grand arbre sur la terrasse. La piscine était magnifique pour se rafraîchir après une excursion et était entretenue chaque jour par les propriétaires de la maison. Notre séjour sur l'île de la Barthelasse a été une réussite.

Schönes Haus in schöner Umgebung

Wir waren 2 Wochen im Haus. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Garten und der Pool sind wunderschön und haben maßgeblich zu unserem erholsamen Uraub beigetragen. Die Lage des Hauses ist für einen Urlaub in und um Avignon perfekt. Unweit der Stadt und vieler anderer Sehenswürdigkeiten und dennoch ruhig und idyllisch in ländlischer Umgebung. Christine und ihr Mann Martin sind sehr herzliche und sympathische Gastgeber. Wir haben nichts vermisst und kommen gerne wieder! Vielen Dank!

Charming House with great outdoor space

Characterful house in a quiet area but within a short drive (and free parking) of Avignon. Our hosts were very helpful and welcoming. Walking into Avignon was not really practical in the summer heat, but a lovely place to relax and enjoy a swim after exploring the surrounding area.

Traumaufenthalt in der Provence

Wunderschönes Haus mit tollem Pool, ruhig gelgen mitten im Grünen auf der ile de la Barthelasse und trotzdem nur 10 Minuten mit den hauseigenen Fahrräder vom Stadtzentrum in Avignon entfernt. Das Haus war sehr gepflegt mit allem erdenklichen Komfort. Besonders zu erwähnen sind der tolle Poll und die schönen Sitzmöglichkeiten auf der großen schattigen Terrasse unter einer alten Platane. Die sehr netten Vermieter stehen jederzeit bei Fragen zur Verfügung. Hier gibt es nichts zu vermissen, wenn man einen tollen Urlaub in der Provence verbringen möchte, der die Nähe zur Stadt und trotzdem eine ruhige Umgebung im Grünen verbindet. Besonders in der Zeit des Theater-Festivals! Wir können das Haus uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

About the host

Hosted by Christine R.

Host profile image
Christine, picture framer (workshop in studio in front of the rent) and Martin, independent architect in Avignon.
We like the contact with the people of any horizons, we like the art, the secondhand trade, the journeys and our island in which we live since 15 years.

Why they chose this property

This house was inhabited during 15 years by the same person nd when she left, we decided to rent it for seasonal stays. We rent last summer to comedians who played in the festival of Avignon 2013.

What makes this property unique

Charming house where we feel good, according to the visitors there, functional and very well placed. The island of the barthelasse is one of green lungs of Avignon where you can make walk (bike rides, on foot or in roller). We can join Avignon in bike and cross the Rhône with the river shuttle. A big parking is also in the entrance of Avignon and a bus leads you to ramparts.
