Directions
Please be aware that for the privacy of our guests, we have purposely decided not to have any signs indicating the entrance to the Mas on our driveway.
If you are approaching from the A7 motorway, take the Orange Sud exit (#22) and follow the signs for Avignon. After that, make a left turn onto the D 950 road heading towards Vaison-la-Romaine & Carpentras. Disregard the first sign for Jonquières and continue on the D 950. When you reach a roundabout, follow the sign for Jonquières and just before entering the village, take a right turn into the driveway of the Mas called "Chemin de l'Escarrat". This will be immediately after passing the Sotalis company, approximately 1 kilometer after the roundabout.
If you are coming from Orange, drive through the village of Jonquières towards Carpentras using Avenue de la Libération. As you approach the exit of the village, take a left turn into a driveway flanked by the walls of the Sotalis company. At the entrance of the road, you will notice a sign indicating it is a "dead end road". The Mas will be approximately 400 meters along this driveway.
