About this house rental

It is situated just within the ramparts of an old fortified chateaux and about 100 meters from the village square and within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Part of the structure contains the communal well and washing sinks for the old fortified town, hence the name 'La Maison du Puits' or 'The Well House'. It has a sun terrace and small garden.

    Sits under and is part of an old castle. Wonderful for history buffs. The little patio with its plants and olive tree was a great place for meals. The manager and her husband were super friendly and helpful. Only one complaint and it’s for us seniors. The stairway to the bedrooms is white stone and hard to navigate for those with some vision and mobility issues. Let the over 70 crowd be aware. Otherwise it was wonderful and Boulbon is as charming as a small village can be.

    Spacious, comfortable apartment in a historic building. Charming village with easy access to larger towns in Provence and the Camargue (we loved the bird preserve). Great little grocery store, nice bakery and well-appointed kitchen. Warm welcome from Paola. We would stay here again in a heartbeat- thank you!

    We had a wonderful week in "La Maison du Puits". The house fulfils every wish, equipment and furniture are great, the flair of the mediaeval location is beautiful and Paola, who manages the house, was extremely helpful and nice. We highly recommend this place.

    Our stay at La Maison du Puits (house of the well) was simply amazing. My wife & I were traveling with our 2 young adult children. The house was immaculately clean, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed. And it’s situated in the quaintest, cutest town. There’s everything you need in this little town— a Boulanger, a viande market, a grocery store, a few good restaurants (Cafe du Commerce was great) and one exceptional restaurant (La Table de la Bastide de Boulbon). Paola, who manages the house and has a sewing/gift shop in town was so very helpful, steering us right whenever we had a question. Plus, Boulbon is a very central location. It’s about 25-45 minutes to Avignon, Arles, Nimes, the Luberon, Les Baux, Pont du Gard, Chateauneuf-de-Pape. We stayed here for 5 nights and would have been happy if we had booked our entire 2 week trip here. There is so much to do in the area. One of our favorite rentals ever.

    We felt lucky to stay in such a lovely location in the small, not touristy, Boulbon. The beautifully restored property made us feel like we were living in a part of the castle just above us. Les and Margaret kept in touch from afar with information and check ins, and Paola, the manager that lives in the village, couldn't have been nicer. We felt as though we had made a friend, stopping by her little shop often to chat and see what new creation she was making. In addition, Paola was a valuable resource when we had questions, sought recommendations, or had a particular problem to solve. The small kitchen was stocked with anything we needed when we chose to cook at "home", the notebook of information was impressively organized and detailed, the bedrooms were comfortable, and the trip to the patisserie was literally steps away. It was very special that we got to witness two traditional community events during our month long stay. Boulbon's location was ideal to explore so many other surrounding Provincial villages and towns and each of us on this trip are already hoping to return one day.

    Charming village. Beautifully restored property at foot of ruined castle on a hill. Had a great stay and would recommend to anyone who loves the area.

    We stayed here for two weeks in November. Great time to visit the south of France; the crowds are gone, and the weather is still decent. This rental experience has achieved top ranking in the many places we have stayed over the past decade. Fantastic location in Boulbon, about ten minutes to Avignon by car. The village itself is awesome, with restaurants, a bakery, a butcher shop and a small grocery store within easy walking distance. Kitchen is well-equipped; we cooked a lot of French food during our stay. Nice to have a dishwasher. We took advantage of the outdoor produce markets in nearby communities. Fresh seasonal products, plus cheese, olives and tapenade. Bathrooms have good showers, good water pressure. Comfortable beds. Very cosy main floor, we had a wood fire going on chilly mornings. The house itself is stone; it was beautifully reconstructed from a ruin. Its tucked inside an old fortification. Really cool. Lovely terrace outside with a masonry charcoal grill. There is a spiral concrete staircase that allows access to the top two floors (three story building). Stone stairs access the terrace from outside the house, and another set of stairs accesses it from the second level of the house. The property is not suitable to those with mobility issues. Paola the caretaker is a warm, friendly lady. The owners are very well organized, especially the house information binder, which addresses everything you need to know about the property.
