Directions
Please be aware that for the privacy of our guests, we intentionally decided not to have signs indicating the entrance to the Mas on our driveway.
If you are traveling from the A7 motorway, take the Orange Sud exit ( # 22) and follow the signs leading to Avignon. Afterward, make a left turn onto the D 950 road heading to Vaison-la-Romaine & Carpentras. Disregard the initial sign for Jonquières and continue on the D 950. Upon reaching a roundabout, follow the sign for Jonquières and before entering the village itself, turn right onto the driveway called "Chemin de l'Escarrat" that leads to the Mas. This driveway is located immediately after passing the Sotalis company, approximately 1 km past the roundabout.
For those coming from Orange, proceed through the village of Jonquières in the direction of Carpentras via Avenue de la Libération. Just before exiting the village, turn left onto a driveway lined by the walls of the Sotalis company. At the entrance of this road, you will notice a "dead end road" sign. The Mas can be found approximately 400 meters along this driveway.
