We had a very nice stay. The location was great for side trips into Marseilles, the beach and a wine tour. My children and grandchildren enjoyed the pool.
10 of us enjoyed our stay in Velaux - the house was lovely and Anne-Marie was very responsive when we had an issue with one of the doors. Thanks for a lovely stay
A wonderful home with multiple distinct living areas and indoor/outdoor spaces. Our reunion of 3 families spent many hours by the pool, preparing meals in the outdoor kitchen and playing cards. The view is spectacular. Close to both Marseilles and Aix en Provence. A fantastic home with kind hosts.

A lovely spot just outside of Marseille
We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at Anne-Marie and Gabriel’s house. The location and amenities at the property were perfect for a large party for a hen do with lots of space and areas to enjoy including the boules pitch and we loved the outdoor kitchen and pool. Anne Marie was brilliant at communicating with us before the trip and very forthcoming with ways to help accommodate us including an early check in. Thank you Anne Marie and Gabriel! 5 stars!

Thank you Daisy for your lovely report. We were very glad having the oportunity to help you organizing a beautiful week-enf for your friend.
We also apreciated communicating with you. Everybody was respectfull for the house.
Thanks for your visit !
Fantastic stay in a lovely quiet location. We were a bunch of old friends and used Mas Des Roche as our base for 2 weeks of the Rugby World Cup. The villa has easy driving access to Marseille, Aix En Provence and via the autoroute up to Avignon, Chateau Neuf de Pape and Toulouse. We loved coming back to the villa for some rest and relaxation. The entertaining spaces are perfect for big long lunches with friends. Being at the top of a valley and shaded by pine trees there was a lovely cool breeze. Plenty of rooms and space for privacy too. Anne Marie was a wonderfully host, very informative and helpful. Any issues we had over our stay were dealt with immediately. Would go back!

Fantastic Villa - HIGHLY recommend
Everything was wonderful. we stayed as a group of friends and the villa was brilliant, it was modern, clean, stylish, massive and perfect spaces to chill as a big group on the terraces and by the poolside. We used the summer kitchen by the poolside to make a big BBQ. we enjoyed the quiet surrounds and went on day time walks in the hills. We also had a great day trip to the vineyards close to the villa they were lovely and delightful wine (Rose, red and white). We loved the pool and hot tub. Anne Marie was so incredibly helpful in everything to do with organizing - helped with taxis, food shop etc etc. We all had the most amazing stay at this gorgeous villa. Its definitely *****5 Star accomodation. We all want to come back again! its only 20mins in a taxi from Marseille airport - so perfect. THANK YOU Anne-Marie

Thanks a lot Janine for this so beautifull report .
It's for us the greatest award when our guests enjoyed their stay and found anything acording to what they expected.
Helping to organize things is for me an important part of the job.
I think you also did a great job for your friends and you were so sympathic.
Thank you Janine !
Magnifique Mas ideal weekend en famille ou entre amis
Suoerbe Mas, typique de la region, idéal pour un weekend entre amis ou en famille. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour. Anne-Marie est très reactive et de bon conseil. Je recommande
un séjour d'une semaine en famille avec nos 3 enfants et conjoints et nos petits enfants - soit 12 adultes réunis dans cette grande et chaleureuse propriété. Grande pour que chacun se sente indépendant avec 8 chambres et 6 salles d'eau. Le séjour est grand et convivial et nous pouvions déjeuner/diner tous ensemble sur cette grande table.Le temps n'était pas vraiment de la partie hélas mais les jeunes adultes ont profité des jacuzzis. Un séjour très agréable - de plus c'était notre deuxième séjour
Nous avons occupé la maison entre amis en occupant les 8 chambres. Confortable, fonctionnel, accueil chaleureux.
Coin cuisine d’été, piscine, plancha, salon extérieur très agréable.
Les hôtes sont très accueillants.
À refaire
Un gîte spacieux, confortable et très bien équipé !
Les hôtes sont très gentils et aidants, je recommande pour des séjours aussi bien entre amis qu'en famille.
Nous avons loué la totalité du Mas des Roches pour un événement familial. Il s’agit d’une sublime bâtisse qui a l’avantage de proposer des studios indépendants et de nombreux logements. La grande cuisine extérieure donnant sur la piscine avec vue dégagée est très appréciable. Le petit + : sauna et bain à remous.
Les hôtes sont très accueillants, sympathiques et arrangeants.
Un grand merci pour ce séjour que nous n’oublierons pas !

merci beaucoup pour votre évaluation.
Nous avons été ravis de nous associer à votre rencontre familiale.
La villa est très conviviale et tranquille. La piscine est idéalement ombragée mais pas trop. Une semaine très agréable pour une famille nombreuse et un accueil parfait. Je recommande !
Nous avons un très bon week-end entre amies, très bonnes installations (cuisine, literie), et le point fort: piscine, jacuzzi et sauna, le tout dans un écrin de verdure au calme et à 5 min en voiture des commerces. Je recommande!

Merci , Laure, pour votre évaluation. Nous avons eu plaisir à accueillir votre groupe fort sympathique, toutes vos amies ont été respectueuses des lieux.
We stayed at Anne-Marie and Gabriels house with a large group of friends and had a lovely time. The kids enjoyed the pool and the trampoline, the outdoor kitchen is great and despite the fact that we were 16 people in total, everybody had enough space for themselves. Anne-Marie and Gabriel are very friendly and the communication with them was super easy.
Highly recommended!!
