Please be aware that we have intentionally decided not to put up signs at the entrance of our driveway in order to respect the privacy of our guests.
If you are traveling from the A7 motorway, take the Orange Sud exit (#22) and follow the signs for Avignon. Then, make a left turn onto the D950 road towards Vaison-la-Romaine & Carpentras. Disregard the first sign for Jonquières and continue on the D950. Upon reaching a roundabout, follow the sign for Jonquières and just before entering the village, take a right turn into the driveway of the Mas, known as "Chemin de l'Escarrat." This driveway is located immediately after passing the Sotalis company, approximately 1 kilometer after the roundabout.
If you are coming from Orange, drive through the village of Jonquières heading towards Carpentras on Avenue de la Libération. Near the outskirts of the village, make a left turn into a driveway that is flanked by the walls of the Sotalis company. At the entrance of this road, you will see a "dead end road" sign. The Mas is situated approximately 400 meters along this driveway.
