Le Mas de Baptiste near the town center with heated, sheltered swimming pool

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience Six of us spent a very special week at Le Mas Baptiste. We cannot speak highly enough of the beautiful house, the facilities offered or the most thoughtful and generous hosts. St Remy and the surrounding area is amazing and so is Le Mas Baptiste.

Very nice house, lovely owner Great location if you have a car, quiet, peaceful and comfortable. Owner lives next door, is kind and helpful. Town is close by, lots to see and do.

Fantastic We had a wonderful stay. It’s a bit more of a walk into town than we were expecting based on the description but very manageable. Great place for our family to start our French trip.

One of the best we've ever stayed in A small farmhouse that has been restored with great taste. It lies on a plateau just outside the charming town of St-Remy; just a few minutes drive will bring you to shops, bars, restaurants and petrol stations. There are views to the Alpilles from the top of the plateau and several tracks in the surrounding nature reserve. Inside was plesantly warm during our stay (mid-March), with two reversible air-conditioning units and a lovely wood-pellet-burning stove that heated up the main rooms very quickly. The kitchen had everything you need to make a good meal and of course the view out of the window is stunning! The beds are comfortable (although we found the pillows too soft, but that's a personal thing), the rooms are dark once the shutters are closed. The upstairs bathroom door lies at the turn of the staircase so we used a torch at night. People more than 1.80m high might find the beams and the sloping ceilings upstairs a bit of a nuisance too. These are just minor niggles and did not at all spoil a wonderful week. St-Remy is well placed for trips to stunning places within one hour's drive; we went to the walled town of Aigues-Mortes, the hilltop citadel of Les Baux,an ornithological park in the Camargue to see flamingos and the magical Pont du Gard. Avignon and Villeneuve would also be reachable but we know them well already. Genevieve lives in the big farm next door and is a terrific hostess, quick to reply and solve any problems. A little French would be helpful.

Very nice premises Excellent stay in this cozy fully equipped clean house. Everything was perfect besides two small remarks: maybe the sofa has had its best days, and caution with big dogs outside because in the garden the wall/fence with the Alpilles reserve is only one meter high, our galgo just jumped over several times and walked himself in the nature reserve… Luckily he comes back himself after chasing some rabbits.

Even better than the photos We had a wonderful stay at Genevieve's home. Genevieve was very helpful and greeted us when we arrived and before we left. The location is absolutely beautiful and away from the crowds, but close to the beautiful village of St. Remy. The house met all of our expectations and more. We would be very happy to come back to this wonderful place.
