Our family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home that was well-situated for day trips to cute towns around Provence. We'd leave for a day trip between 9-10 am, visit a town for 3-4 hours, and then return to relax around the pool and make an easy dinner in the house. The kitchen is well-equipped with (and there is an indoor and outdoor kitchen) with two refrigerators and one freezer.
The bedrooms are all very comfortable and all have ensuite bathrooms (though one doesn't have a toilet). Each room has a separate thermostat, which was lovely. The beds are also extremely comfortable.
My only minor complaint is that items like trash bags and dishwasher tabs were our responsibility to purchase. My guess is past tenants leave items like these behind because there's no way they could use them all in a week's stay. In other properties we've stayed in, those items were just left for future guest use so this was a small surprise. But, there is a Carrefour within a 3-minute drive so it wasn't a major problem. Washing detergent was available for our use and we appreciated that.
We also had minor issues with the WiFi. They have two routers, once which was repaired quickly, but really only had good connection downstairs in the living room. We made it work (and most should not bother when they are on vacation - we just own a small business and must get some work done in even as we vacation).
There is a lovely boulangerie in the centre ville of Chateaurenard (a 5-minute drive). We so enjoyed buying fresh croissants, pain au chocolat, baguettes, and even grain bread nearly daily.
If you are not a French speaker, be aware that your hosts don't speak English. Our French is intermediate (and often broken when we speak) and we managed fine with our kind hosts, but know that it will make your stay easier if you can communicate in French.
If we are able to return to Provence for a future vacation, we will certainly look at staying here again.
