Cottage La Miellerie | Authentic Charm and Nature

The space

Mas La Miellerie offers an airy, relaxing, and revitalizing environment, ideal for families, groups of friends, or remote workers seeking tranquility in the heart of nature, in a charming stone hamlet. Its outdoor spaces stretch across a 1000 m² plot, offering various areas for outdoor relaxation.

The living room, with its exposed stone walls and scraped plaster, is a warm and authentic space. It is equipped with a Carvin de Godin cast iron wood stove (with logs available in the inner courtyard) for cozy warmth in winter, and a Dreo fan to cool the summer days. For your relaxation, a television with access to Netflix, Disney+, and Prime Video is at your disposal. This welcoming living room is furnished with a 153x185 cm linen sofa bed, a restored coffee table, a wooden armchair made by the grandfather, and a cozy corner with cushions nestled between two authentic beams, offering a view of the courtyard and the charming little chapel of the hamlet.

The kitchen, both functional and charming, includes an old carved stone sink, a glass-ceramic cooktop, an oven, a microwave, a refrigerator, and all the necessary utensils to prepare delicious meals. It is also equipped with a Nespresso machine, a filter coffee maker, a kettle, and a toaster. An oak dresser contains a complete set of tableware, with dishes and glassware for all occasions, from large wine glasses to cocktail glasses. Meals can be shared around an authentic wooden farmhouse table, perfect for enjoying your cooked dishes or simply a coffee or tea. The kitchen also offers direct access to the north terrace.

Wake up in one of the two bedrooms of Mas La Miellerie, both equipped with high-end Épeda bedding, combining pocket spring technology and memory foam for a deeply restorative sleep. Each bedroom has its own heating for winter and a Dreo fan for summer, ensuring optimal comfort in all seasons.
The main bedroom, facing north, features a 160×200 bed, accompanied by two green-painted wooden nightstands with wooden bottle-shaped lamps, and an additional 90×190 cm bed. The exposed beams add a rustic touch to this room, which benefits from storage space and a calming view of the garden.
The second bedroom, facing south, is equipped with a 140×190 bed and a wooden clothes rack. The stone wall, adorned with paper mache lamps above stools serving as nightstands, creates a calming and unique atmosphere. From this room, you can enjoy a charming view of the roofs and the chapel of the hamlet.
A sofa bed in the living room increases the capacity of Mas La Miellerie to 7 people, offering flexibility to accommodate families and groups of friends.

The bathroom, crafted from masonry and wood, exudes an authentic atmosphere. Enjoy a shower equipped with relaxing jets thanks to Grohe SmartControl technology. The bathroom includes a sink cabinet with a mixer tap, a large mirror, practical storage, and a towel warmer. A hairdryer, iron, and ironing board are also available. For added convenience, the washing machine is located in the laundry room, and you can hang your laundry on the outdoor clothesline.

Outside, Mas La Miellerie offers several furnished spaces to fully enjoy every moment of the day. Start with a peaceful breakfast in the north garden, where the fresh morning air mingles with the rays of the rising sun and the natural scents of the surrounding scrubland. The shaded inner courtyard is ideal for enjoying a meal in complete tranquility.
During the day, settle into the Relax Zero Gravity chairs or on the multi-position folding loungers from Lafuma Mobilier to relax under the Mediterranean sun. As evening approaches, the small terrace in the inner courtyard becomes the perfect spot for an aperitif tête-à-tête or with friends, while watching the sunset. Continue the evening with a plancha dinner in the courtyard, where laughter and conviviality blend with the flavors of the prepared dishes. End the day on the north terrace, enjoying dessert under a starry sky, free from light pollution, for a moment of serenity in the heart of the gardens.

Mas La Miellerie, nestled in the heart of nature, offers a peaceful and authentic atmosphere. However, due to its natural environment, you may encounter slight dust or typical scents of the Provençal countryside. The hamlet offers magnificent spaces to recharge, and children will enjoy the space to run and play. Unexpected encounters with farm animals or even a few deer will add an extra touch of charm to your stay.
