About this property
Beautiful Traditional Provencal Mas with Stunning Heated Pool, Garden & Views
A quiet location within an easy short walk to the famous river, La Sorgue. Although a secluded location, the house is very convenient to local shops, restaurants, wonderful scenic walks and nearby golfing, horse riding, canoeing and fly fishing.
Le Mas Guillaume is a beautiful authentic Provencal Mas(farmhouse) nestling in fruit orchards and olive groves. The tranquillity and beauty of this region can be enjoyed in the private lush garden or around the beautifully heated private saltwater 10mx5m swimming pool. The enclosed, alarmed pool and beautifully landscaped garden are ideal for children or relaxing and lazing on one of the surrounding sun loungers. The house is a very comfortable 4-bedroomed holiday home with an additional separate Garden Suite annex with a king size bed, kitchenette and ensuite that opens onto the pool area and garden. There is air conditioning throughout the property with units in each bedroom and in each communal area. The well appointed kitchen within the main house leads onto a vine-covered terrace with views of the Vaucluse hills and private garden. The house has a lovely landscaped garden, ideal for children, and a large well-treed and fully-enclosed, secure pool area. The house and garden design provides intimate seating for overlooking the Vaucluse hills, and can also accommodate large family gatherings around the two large dining tables. We provide a professional cleaner who comes twice a week on Saturdays and also mid-week. Our dedicated guest manager will greet you on arrival and can be contacted to provide to your needs. The house is in close proximity to the picturesque town of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue where you can stroll along the cobbled streets and browse the many boutiques, or pause and lunch from one of the many splendid gourmet restaurants and cafes situated along the river Sorgue. There are also many beautiful country walks that can take you to one of the nearby wonderful Provencal villages. A short walk from the house there is kayaking or fly fishing on the La Sorgue River. Other activities include golfing at the Provence Country Club, hiking and walking in the Vaucluse Hills or simply enjoying the beauty of the Luberon region or exploring the lovely villages nearby.

Lovely and roomy Vaucluse house with a pool
Lovely big house, really well equipped, lovely owners. Weather was perfect too. Vaucluse suite gives just the right amount

I've taken the liberty of adding Mick's remaining comments which somehow were lost.
...the Vaucluse suite gives just the right amount of privacy and luxury.
Plenty of things nearby to see and do for all ages. Ideal place for friends and large family groups.
We had a fantastic three weeks and would love to come back again
Mick, it is great that you had such fun and enjoyed the great leisure activities nearby. The house seemed perfect for your guests. Fantastic! We would love to see you again.
Patricia and Douglas.
It was the second time we stayed at this lovely location and again we enjoyed ourselves very much. Contact with proprietor and agent was helpful and very friendly indeed. A lovely and typical Provence mas with a huge and calm garden and a large pool with privacy that we used almost every day. We shall certainly return!
The property is beautiful and very comfortable even for 10 people. It is very private and the pool and garden are very nice.
It is close to so many villages and shops.
Sarah is amazing!
We’ll be back!

Wonderful house in fantastic area
This place is fantastic! I can’t fault it. The area is rich with things to do, very picturesque. The house itself is great with a layout that’s perfect for big families. There were 4 adults and 4 kids plus my elderly dad stayed in the pool suite which was perfect to give him a bit of privacy. The pool is great - fully fenced which was a real bonus for our non swimming younger kids. Best holiday ever!

atmospheric house in a lovely setting
The house fully meets expectations, it is stylishly finished and you are fully equipped.In the immediate vicinity are many beautiful villages and activities.Even with small children, the house is very practical and safe. The poolside cottage has its own entrance, and is therefore perfect for a couple, space enough for a couple with baby.
(A small cooking plate and microwave in that cottage would make it complete.) The main house is also very spacious (four big bedrooms and a small one for a child) !
We were very happy with the cleaning service after a week. Washing the sheets and towels gives a very luxury feeling.
We enjoyed the house very very much!

EXCELLENT IN EVERY WAY!
We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Le Mas Guillaume and without hesitation say that it is the highest standard rental accommodation that we have ever used in Europe. The owners have made every effort to ensure that every room is delightfully furnished and decorated. There is a delightful combination of traditional French styles with modern touches and comforts.
The kitchen is well equipped and had all the utensils we needed for self-catering and a large supply of china, glass and cutlery. Top marks for sharp kitchen knives! (Unusual in a rented house)
We were a group of 6 adults and we used the outside bedroom with access to the pool and it was perfect for us to enjoy a quiet early morning swim without disturbing anyone else.
Patricia and Douglas are thoughtful homeowners and the chilled Luberon wine awaiting our arrival was most welcome. It was also good to find adequate supplies of soaps etc. in the well-appointed bath/shower rooms.
We particularly enjoyed the sun terrace with comfortable lounge furniture and shaded by vines – delightful! We were lucky to have very warm dry weather at the end of September and this made our holiday perfect. The sightseeing in the region is so varied and interesting. Small village cafes and restaurants were abundant and always of a high standard at a reasonable price.
We hope to return again!

Delighted you had such a wonderful holiday. Thank you for the lovely review. We do endeavour to make our home comfortable and are pleased when it's appreciated.
Hoping to see you back in the future.
The pictures online are 100 % accurate. The property is a gem. There were 5 of us who spent a week at the lovely house. From the time of the booking, our arrival and check in and throughout the week, the communication with the owner, Sean and the property manager, Sarah, were quick and helpful responses all the time.
For us, having the pool house was perfect as it afforded one couple a bit more privacy. Even though we only ate breakfasts in the house (we ate out for lunch and dinner at restaurants in the area and beyond), the kitchen had everything we needed. L'Isle is only a few minutes away for a large supermarket and boulangerie for bread/croissants. The weather was hot, so having a heated pool that was beautifully maintained was a treat. Also having AC that worked well kept us all comfortable during our stay. The grounds of the house are lovely and the mountains in the background only add to the experience.
I want to give Sarah, the property manager, a special note of thanks for helping us print up train passes, quickly responding to a few hiccups and greeting us with a smile. She was the best property manager I've worked with of any VRBO property.
Overall, we all had a wonderful time at a beautiful property and would highly recommend it as well as Sean and Sarah for providing such quick and helpful support.
Also, the property is located really close to so many towns (Gordes, Rouission, Fonataine) as well as short driving distances to Avignon, St. Remy, La Bayeaux, Arle and Nimes as well as a relatively short drive ( 1 1/2 hrs ) to Aix.

Die Villa Saumane ist ein wunderschönes Objekt, das wir zum wiederholten Male gemietet hatten. Wer die Region um Isle-sur-la-Sorgue schätzt, hat hier einen sehr schönen, privaten Standort. Haus und Garten sind ein Traum und die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Wir freuen uns bereits auf unseren nächsten Aufenthalt.
Leider waren wir nur für eine Woche in diesem schönen Haus. Es stimmte alles. Groß, gemütlich, sehr sauber, gute Betten und eine absolut überdurchschnittlich ausgestattete Küche. Nette Betreuung durch Sarah. Und natürlich der große Garten mit dem sehr gepflegten Pool. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Wir wurden sehr freundlich und kompetent von Sarah Connor empfangen und auch jeder Kontakt mit den Eigentümern verlief sehr angenehm. Das Ferienhaus verfügt über einen riesigen, sehr privaten Garten und liegt sehr ruhig. Wir haben unsere zwei Wochen sehr genossen. Im Haus selbst fehlt es an nichts und es ist liebevoll ausgestaltet. Es bleibt für uns zu hoffen, dass das Objekt auch in den kommenden Jahren gebucht werden kann!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is well appointed, spacious and well maintained. The pool is large and the garden is beautiful. It was a perfect place to relax for the week. Sean & Sarah (house manager) were both very helpful prior to our arrival and during our stay.
After not being able to travel for over a year this was just what we needed!
We spend a fabulous week in this stylish and well equipped villa which is situated in a perfectly calm and beautiful location with a lot of interesting places to explore nearby.
we had some wonderful excursions, wine tastings, hikes and bicycle rides in the surrounding area and had cozy evenings on the delightful terrace.
The spaceous separate pool area is surrounded by a security fence, which is really useful when travelling with small children.
The house surpassed all our expectations, everything we needed was there, the pool was perfectly heated and clean.
A big thumbs up to the owners and the manager Sarah who were very kind, caring and responsive to all our questions.
Already weeks before our stay the owners send us a lot of useful information and Sarah took perfectly care of us on our arrival.
Everything we needed to know about the house, the equipment and the area plus suggestions about restaurants, visits, hikes etc was well documented in a folder.
We can't wait to return to this marvellous villa next year.

Wonderful House, Wonderful Area
We have stayed in many self catering houses around the world and this is what we hoped for, and more.
It is stylishly and beautifully equipped, immaculately clean, and with everything one could wish for. Plenty of room for our family of 6 adults and 2 young children, the pool and garden are very secure for little ones.
So many interesting places to visit nearby with numerous opportunities to sample wonderful French food and wine.
We had a few problems - our Saturday flights were cancelled - but Patricia, Douglas and manager Elayne were so helpful, for which we are very grateful.
Our family can't wait to return

Amazing property in the perfect location
The property was beautiful and in an amazing location to explore. It is a very short drive into L’Isle sur la sorgue . The pool area was immaculate, the owners provided all pool towels. There is a suite which we decided to stay in which opens up on to the pool. The main house is stunning with a large sociable kitchen ... a big kitchen is important to us being in France! Outside the front of the property the large table and bbq area was used every evening.
The house is very tastefully decorated and incredibly well organised. The owners have thought of everything and have a file detailing restaurants, walks and other important information for your stay.
It was a very relaxing stay and we hope to go back this summer.

Absolutely Wonderful!
This is a beautiful house for a holiday. We were two families, all adults, and it catered for all our needs. The photos do not do it justice; everything was as described and more. We spent almost all of our time either in the kitchen, on the terrace or by the pool - all brilliant. It's easy to get anywhere for shopping, markets and visiting the lovely local villages (our favourites being Gordes, Menerbes and Fontaine de Vaucluse). Also Cassis on the coast is well worth a visit, not forgetting all the opportunities for wine tasting (superb Rosé)!
Patricia and Douglas were extremely helpful beforehand and kept in touch during our stay. Elayne and Catherine (manager and housekeeper) were also great. We would love to return for another holiday.

Perfect getaway!
We spent a wonderful week in this beautiful home from home. The property is very spacious and comfortable, with lots of little details that added a special touch to our holiday- the local wine and soap on arrival were particularly enjoyable after a long days travel, and the kids adored playing with all the toys stored in the garage. Between that, the pool and the garden, they were very well occupied!
The location is stunning, all the beauty of rural Provence, yet only 5 minutes from the restaurants and shops in L'isle Sur la Sorgue. We had a great time exploring on market day.
There are so many beautiful places to visit in the surrounding area. We particularly enjoyed visiting fountain de vaucluse where we had an exceptional meal at restaurant Philip, and saumane de vaucluse where bistro de saumane is worth a trip. There is lots to see and do, hiking, cycling, kayaking and even a high ropes course nearby, plenty of activities for the kids.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and enjoyed many tranquil evenings on the terrace with a lovely meal (courtesy chef Jane) and a glass or two of local rosé... perfect getaway!

Lovely property
I and my family stayed in this property for the second time. We are a family of 10 spanning 3 generations - 6 adults and 4 boys - boys ranging in age from 6 months to 4 years.
The property is as described and had every facility needed for our party. The kitchen, particularly, is very well equipped.
The pool, garden and outside toys are ideal for our grandsons, and the house very comfortable for both children and adults.
The location is perfect, we cycled every day to buy our croissants, did canal side walks, kayaked twice during our stay and even ventured on a trip to the coast.
The house is maintained to a very high standard as are the garden and pool area. We found it very helpful in view of the ages of our grandsons that the pool was in a separate gated area from the rest of the garden and house.
We enjoyed visiting the local villages and markets in this beautiful area and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to families. We hope to return!

About the host
Hosted by Sean & Rachel O'Riordan
We live in the south east of England. France has always been a special holiday destination for us, offering beautiful and varied countryside and within easy access of the UK. We fell in love with Provence in particular and when the opportunity arose we purchased this beautiful home that stole our hearts.,
It took a few months of hard work to renovate. It was worth it. We love the house and garden as do our family and friends. We wish we could spend longer periods in this region.
Thank you for taking the time to view our home.
Why they chose this property
Le Mas Guillaume enjoys glorious views of the Vaucluse hills from the terrace. For us, sundowners in the garden, the glorious garden, make it rather special location. We always are amazed at the magnificent night skies. The area has many good leisure options, walking, golf and cycling. Fishing and canoeing very nearby too. As we love the outdoors, so this was a perfect choice of properties. The Luberon National Park offers stunning walking. La Sorgue river is stunning. The property is tranquil, not isolated with easy access to nearby villages and towns. The coast is approximately an hour's drive from the house. Recently we visited Pont du Gard, a stunning ancient Roman aqueduct. Well worth a visit.
What makes this property unique
The house is conveniently located to the town of L'Isle sur la Sorgue, a 5 minute drive, good shopping and great restaurants, too. The Luberon villages are within easy reach, Menerbes, Gordes, Goult to name a few. Le Mas Guillaume is great for families with children or teenagers, offering privacy with lovely outdoor areas. Good security and a tastefully fenced pool area. We are fortunate to have an excellent manager who endeavours to make this a special holiday for our guests. As well as the clean on a Saturday our cleaner also provides a light mid-week clean. Easy access for wheelchair users.
