Le Mazet de la Dame

Le Mazet de la Dame offers two accommodation options for two people: a 35 m² Comfort Apartment and a 25 m² Double Room. Both have air conditioning, a private bathroom, a flat-screen TV and a private terrace. Views of the garden and mountains are a feature of both categories.

The apartment stands out for its kitchenette, outdoor dining area and coffee machine; it also includes a fridge, a microwave and kitchenware. The more compact Double Room has a minibar and outdoor furniture on its terrace. Both accommodation options have a large double bed. The main differences between the categories are therefore the size and the facilities for preparing meals: a kitchenette in the apartment and a minibar in the Double Room.

Le Mazet de la Dame offers an outdoor saltwater swimming pool with a shallow end, as well as a garden and a terrace. The outdoor areas include furniture and a dining area. You can go hiking and walking in the surrounding area. Private parking is free, accessible to guests with reduced mobility and available on site without prior reservation.

A continental breakfast is served on site and can also be brought to your room. The accommodation has air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom. The apartment includes a fully equipped kitchenette, while the Double Room has a minibar. Pets are welcome at no extra charge. The property does not have an internet connection. The outdoor facilities, parking and amenities in each accommodation option cater to different needs during a stay in the Barbentane area.

Barbentane is a Provençal village between the Rhône and the Montagnette, amid a landscape of scrubland, orchards and hills. The old village’s lanes, gates and historic buildings offer a glimpse of its past, while the surrounding countryside invites you to go for walks. It suits travellers who want to combine heritage, nature and visits to villages without staying in a large city.

The Abbaye Saint-Michel de Frigolet, in the Montagnette hills, is a remarkable religious site surrounded by pine trees and walking trails. Château de Boulbon and the village of Graveson offer other stops to discover local architecture and life. Avignon adds the Palais des Papes, a vast Gothic complex, and the Pont Saint-Bénézet, made famous by the song. Avignon TGV station is 7 km away; a car is useful for reaching the villages and sites scattered across the countryside.

Spring and autumn are good seasons for walks in the Montagnette and visits to historic sites, with temperatures often milder than in the height of summer. In summer, plan walks for the morning or late afternoon, and leave time for the swimming pool during the hottest hours. A day could include a walk around the abbey, a visit to Boulbon and an evening in Avignon. Markets and local festivals also mark the seasons in nearby towns; dates vary from year to year.
