Provence - wanted villa or mas with pool
 
Anyone know of a good villa or mas with a pool in Provence that might be available from 20th June for 3 weeks?

My holiday plans have gone awry. I´m trawling the net and making phonecalls but a recommendation from someone here would be good. I know I´ll find something - but i´d prefer something very nice and preferably at a good price.

Many thanks.

At this late date, recommendations are a waste of time. You need to know what's available. Call all the agencies and ask for their help. (Look at www.slowtrav.com for agency reviews.)

Hi Lawchick...if you haven't found something yet, drop me a note and I'll post your request (free) on my site www.ProvencePost.com. I have lots of friends that rent their places out and maybe we'll find you something nice. My email: [email protected]
Best Wishes,
Julie

Lawchick:

You didn't say how many bedrooms/baths, etc. I just looked at some of the VRBO houses I've saved and a few were available for that time period.

I have found something! Not in the area I was looking for, but to be honest, for this holiday for me, the house fitting the criteria is more important than the location fitting the criteria. And I got a good deal, 3 weeks for 5k instead of 8.5K.

5 beds, pool, airco, big garden etc. We're only four (well 3.5) people so we'll have plenty of space.

Anyway, thanks to all that helped me. I'm looking forward to lying down a lot. Catching up on my reading and doing lots of wine tasting....and there are bikes in the house.......so I can motor home through the vineyards on two wheels.
