We loved this beautiful property, the grounds and garden were perfect for a relax in the sunshine. The house had everything we needed and was spacious and comfortable. The owners had thought of everything from pool towels, to boules and games, to all the kitchen facilities you could need. We loved the proximity to gorgeous Pézenas too.

We had a lovely time at Thoma’s place - whis is beautiful and comfortable and close to lots of attractions! We enjoyed the walking distance to town and to come home and relax outside and in the pool. We would love to come back.

The couvent is a perfect place to explore Pezenas and the surrounding area. It’s just a few minutes walk from the market square and the beautiful and charismatic old town. The courtyard and pool areas are spacious and feel private even though they are shared with the other apartments, there’s more than enough room for everyone! The online guidebook was particularly helpful, and Warren was around keeping the place well maintained and offering helpful and friendly advice. The appartment is spacious, well equipped, and lovely and cool on hot days. Again lots of space for everyone to spread out and have their space. All round a very relaxing place to be. Thankyou for having us, we’ll be back!

The convent is near the best part of Pezenas and has been beautifully refurbished. The amenities, such as the petanque court and chairs dotted around the outside space, were really well thought out; the pool is also a very welcome addition. Inside there is everything you need and the place is beautifully decorated, we loved the quirky octopus theme. Also, a little thing, but the kitchen was well fitted out including knives that you can properly cut with! Absolutely loved our stay, can't wait to go back.
