About this property

Delightful and secluded farmhouse, lovely gardens and lavender edged pool

Mas de Gibert is an old stone farmhouse standing in 3 acres of its own grounds and surrounded by open countryside, Throughout we have endeavored to create an ambience that is in keeping with its essential character whilst providing comfort and originality.
The farmhouse is beautifully cool and spacious with accommodation on two floors.
Stone steps lead up from the flower filled courtyard taking you into a fully equipped kitchen with dining table and chairs and onto the lounge with wood burning stove, comfy chairs and sofa. From the lounge there is a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom ( toilet, shower, sink.There is another door off the lounge onto a large balcony for outdoor eating and relaxing with a staircase leading through a garden to the pool for your sole use
The entrance to the ground floor is off the courtyard. As you enter there is a room with a double bed. Leading off this room there is a bathroom (bath, sink,toilet and shower) and another double bedroom with two single beds and french windows which leads out to the back terrace.

Outdoors there is a variety of places to sit and relax with much mature planting. There is a flower lined path to the pool area which has security gates. The pool using a salt system is 10mx5m with large rectangular steps. The depth of the shallow end is approx 1 mtr with a deep end of just under 2 mtrs. There is a large expanse of terrace around the pool surrounded by flowerbeds with recliners, parasols, table and chairs with a hammock in a shady corner.

Feels like home
This place is really perfect, the well equiped old house with lovely gardens all around feels like home. Garden furniture and umbrella’s everywhere, always a place to find in the sun or just in the shadows. The pool is fantastic. Host Alison was very kind and helpful. She lives next door with her husband but you’ll never see them and they let you enjoy in privacy. We really didn’t want to leave...

Wonderful French Summer Holiday.
This was our forth stay at Ginals and as always it was wonderful. The house is very nice and well equipped. The garden and pool are beautiful and the location is lovely and peaceful. We had a very relaxing week and hope to return next year.

Swimming pool is amazing
The salt water swimming is incredible, it was so much nicer than a chlorinated one, we all loved it. The house has a lovely rustic charm and all the plants around the house attract all kinds of bees and insects, to walk down to the pool and hear them all is amazing. The planting around the swimming pool is the same, it’s beautiful. If you’re after a peaceful quiet place this ticks all the boxes. It’s a 30 min drive to a supermarket, but you can’t have peaceful and quiet with one next door. The kids loved the house, it has acres of land and they could wonder off happily. Highly recommended

Myself and my partner live and work here in France and have been gradually renovating Mas de Gibert.
We live in a barn which adjoins but faces away from the farmhouse with a separate entrance and garden where I grow organic seasonal produce among the flowers. Please feel free to pick anything available at the time of your stay.
