Pool
The private swimming pool is behind and above the two cottages, reached through a locked door from the Rue Caterine, and entirely surrounded by high stone walls. With its adjacent rock garden it is a magical place.
The pool is a natural shape, to take into account the rock it is built on. It is approximately 16m long by 6.75m wide at the largest point; the pool is 5m deep at its deepest.
Next to the pool is a pool house containing a dining area with basic kitchenette (including a two ring electric hob and a fridge for drinks) furnished with a table and four chairs, glasses, crockery, cutlery & cooking equipment. The pool house also has a bathroom with a toilet and shower and enough space to change in, where clothes and towels may safely be left.
To one side of the pool is a large rock garden filled mostly with local native plants of the Garrigue. A path through the garden gives access to several more places to sit.
Between the pool house and the entrance gate there is a sunbaked terrace with a large outdoor table and chairs for summer dining. The scent of the herbs in the rock garden next to the pool drifts into this area creating a lovely place to laze away from the pool, maybe reading a book...
The pool is shared between the two cottages and any visitors to the adjacent chateau.
The water is sun heated so the pool is out of action during colder months. The pool will always be open June through September. If you are one of those super hardy people who likes to swim in the colder months please check with us that the pool will be open before you book.
