Vacation Rental Description

Bed and breakfast in a 19th century (1812) maison de maitre (masters house)



close to avignon, nimes, arles, pont du gard and only ten minutes from the beautiful town of uzes, capitol of the ancient duchy.



this area of provence is wonderful for those who love to walk; cycle; paint; canoe; swim, shop or partake of the local culinary delights. hill villages, chateaux and vineyards cover the landscape. we are an hour or so away from the camargue, and the cevennes, the ardeche is only half a hour away, not to mention the rest of provence. the mediaeval walled city of avignon is nearby as are orange, nimes and arles with their remarkably preserved roman remains. ten minutes away is the beautiful town of uzes, an ancient duchy much of which was built in the 15th. And 16th. Century and earlier. With its teeming sidewalk cafes, restaurants and shops, it hosts a saturday provencal market that must be amongst the most colourful and picturesque in europe.



les marronniers has been our home since 1989, and after ten years of restoring it, we decided to open it up to a small number of paying guests. We thought about it a lot and were wondering how we would feel with strangers in our home. then we realized that les marronniers has always been full of visitors. The difference was that they were family and friends. so we decided to think of our guests as friends coming to spend sometime with us.



this has worked very well, both for us and for our guests. more

importantly, many of our guests have become our friends. In fact, our website (which we hope you will visit) was created by a guest who loved his visit with us. the real sign of happy visitors is that they come back - - and they do!



les marronniers has full central heating so it's very comfortable throughout the year. The weather for the grape harvest in autumn is usually beautiful. the winters are frequently sunny and mild for the truffle fairs and the spring is fresh and green for the fruit blossoms. these are all great days for a leisurely lunch and maybe an extra glass or two of the local wine.



we hope to see you soon les marronniers.
