“Provence dream come true”
Dearest Chantal and Jean-Francois were the kindest and most toughtful hosts you can imagine. We spent a week in their Provence-dream place and we enjoyed it so much! The house is beautiful and the garden and the pool are absolutely stunning. We loved our time spent there, from delicious breakfast to quiet moments by the pool. I think our dog enjoyed it too :) the location is the best to explore the area. I think its very clear where we would stay if were ever in Provence again. Thank you again for everything! PS - I bought the Peter Mayle book :)

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at La Fontaine des Magnarelles, hosted by Chantal and Jean-François. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness. The accommodations were perfect for our family of five (3 boys + parents), offering plenty of space and comfort. The peaceful surroundings made it an ideal place to unwind, and the attention to detail in every aspect of our stay did not go unnoticed. Chantal and Jean-François were attentive hosts, always ready to offer advice or share a story, making us feel right at home. We left with fond memories and look forward to returning in the future!

“Amazing stay, we would highly recommend this property. If we ever get the chance we would love to stay here again. Chant”
It’s so picturesque in an amazing setting. The apartment itself was really roomy, exceptionally clean and so well decorated.There were beautiful touches like little complementary lavender biscuits. Stunning views from the windows. Both the inside and outside breakfast areas were well appointed and very pretty. Hosts were absolutely lovely and so accommodating. They gave us lots of tips on places to visit and things to do in and around the area.

Chantal and Jean-Francois are great hosts - they gave a lot of information and recommendations on the region/restaurants etc. We felt very welcomed! The breakfast (and diner 3 times available per week) included a lot of regional products and was very tasty. We especially liked the smart add-ons to have a convenient stay: you can buy regional meals, soft drinks and vine at the guesthouse for very fair prices and you have a well equipped kitchen and space in the refrigerator for your own use.
