| DESCRIPTION |
|
Mas du Petit Grava is located in the heart of Provence near the Roman city of Arles where Van Gogh created many of his most famous paintings. This 18th Century country home is surrounded by the gardens and orchard that provide most of the fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers used within it. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and furnished with antiques from the area. The swimming pool is extra large and surrounded by the sight and smells of lilac, lavender and jasmine. There is a small gym set-up and an extensive library in English. There are also bicycles and a ping-pong table available to the guests. The mas is an ideal place to spend a few restful days or to use as a base from which to visit Southern France's quiet villages, busy cities and incomparable beaches. |
