Nous avons passé une super semaine à la Bastide des Lavandières qui est un endroit magnifique! Notre appartement (fleurs) avait tout le confort nécessaire, une bonne literie ainsi qu'une très agréable terrasse spacieuse. Les extérieurs sont également très plaisants et bien entretenus, la piscine est super (grande, propre et entourée de nombreuses chaises longues pour que chacun puisse s'y relaxer). Je recommande vivement cette location et envisage même d'y retourner.

Spacious apartment with lovely terrace and welcoming pool.
The apartment was comfortable had everything we needed for our short stay. The pool was much appreciated during very hot September weather. We spent very little time inside the apartment as it had a large private terrace.

Bright, clean appartment with a nice pool and outside area.
Our arrival went so smooth. Serge, the caretaker is the perfect host. We were unpacked and by the pool in no-time. The apartment is big, light and clean and has everything you need. Beds are great, as are the showers! It is perfect for a quiet getaway (as there aren't a lot of 'flashy' things to do around here). Absolutely loved it.

Bonne location
Très bonne location, une seul chose nous a gêné : toutes les consignes sont en anglais et lorsque l'on ne maîtrise pas très bien la langue c'est vraiment un inconvénient. SInon c'était bien.

About the host
Hosted by Sean
Work on converting the Bastide into the 6 luxury apartments that we have today began in early 2007 & was completed in mid 2008 . Because of the age of the building a lot of renovation work was required in order to retain the character of such a beautiful 19th century building . Now aproximately 15 years on we still get a thrill out of sharing this place with our guests . So whether you are seeking a relaxing break by the pool, enjoying the countryside, sampling the superb wines from nearby vineyards, sight seeing, or having a more active holiday, La Bastide des Lavandières apartments are ideally placed. We are sure you will love your stay here in this wonderful area of france as much as we do

Other famous singers who have performed in Canaules include Jacques Brel , Francoise Hardy & Charles Aznavour .
