Mas de l'ange du Vaccarès

Chez
Sandrine & Jean-Yves Boulithe

In the heart of the Camargue, the Mas de l'Ange du Vaccarès spreads out over 120 hectares of silence, wild nature, and rustic elegance. Birds, horses, charming rooms, and panoramic views of the lake: here, you can listen, breathe, and disconnect, all just 15 minutes from the bustling center of Arles.

Look up and listen: this place is a bit like bird paradise. Listen, and if you show your curiosity, Jean-Yves, who is passionate about birds, will surely tell you all about it. Listen again: nothing... silence. Just the sound of the wind caressing the Vaccarès pond, the largest in the Camargue, covering more than 6,500 hectares, brushing against the reeds and tamarisk trees. Listen again... This XXL property, covering 120 hectares, with a 17th-century house comprising several wings and buildings (over 1,000 square meters), seems so far removed from the frenzy that takes hold of Arles throughout the summer. La Bergerie? Breakfast is now served by the lake. La Maison du Gardian? Completely revamped without losing any of its soul, it can accommodate up to four people in complete independence. The birdwatching hut? Renovated, with its cinemascope window. Finally, in the farmhouse, there are five guest rooms with independent access. Listen: it's a group of riders returning from a ride with Camille or Inès... Look up, the angel is passing by.
