The Mas du Clos de l'Escarrat is a charming bed and breakfast situated in Jonquières, just 6 miles away from the Orange antique theater and a short 20-minute drive from Avignon. This old stone farmhouse, built in typical Provençal style, dates back to the 17th century and has been carefully renovated to maintain its rustic charm while providing modern comfort.With breathtaking views of Mount Ventoux, the Mas offers comfortable self-catering accommodations. It is ideally located for exploring the beautiful landscapes and lavender fields of the Luberon area, as well as visiting nearby attractions such as Avignon and Chateauneuf du Pape. Guests can even join the owners, Charles and Andrée Barail, on a wine tour to experience the unforgettable taste of Cotes du Rhone wines.
The Mas is surrounded by vineyards, creating a peaceful and secluded atmosphere. The owners, who both speak excellent English, reside in the main house. There are two self-contained studio apartments and two larger two-bedroom apartments available for guests, all equipped with private WC, shower, and kitchen facilities.
Travelers who have stayed at the Mas du Clos de l'Escarrat have praised its idyllic setting and genuine Provencal charm. As one guest put it, "If you're looking for the perfect rural fantasy in Provence, the 17th-century stone mas surrounded by beautiful flowerbeds, lawns, and shaded terraces is exactly what you've been dreaming of."

Directions
Please be aware that for the privacy of our guests, we have intentionally chosen not to have any signs indicating the entrance to the Mas on our driveway.
If you are arriving from the A7 motorway, take the Orange Sud exit ( # 22) and follow the signs for Avignon. Then, make a left turn onto the D 950 road towards Vaison-la-Romaine & Carpentras. Disregard the initial sign for Jonquières and continue on the D 950. Once you reach a roundabout, follow the sign for Jonquières and just before entering the village itself, turn right onto the driveway of the Mas, called "Chemin de l'Escarrat". This will be immediately after passing the Sotalis company, approximately 1 km from the roundabout.
If you are coming from Orange, drive through the village of Jonquières towards Carpentras (Avenue de la Libération). When you are close to exiting the village, take a left turn into a driveway that is bordered by the walls of the Sotalis company. At the entrance of the road, there will be a "dead end road sign". The Mas will be located around 400 meters along the driveway.
