About this house rental
Château MontPlaisir is a mansion built at the end of XVII by a noble family of Avignon. Located in Provence, in the Enclave of the Popes, Valréas, north of Vaucluse, about 35 kms from the highway south, it is built in height, facing west, which offers breathtaking sunsets on the mountains of Ardèche in the distance.
The castle is surrounded by terraces, adorned with fountains and ponds.
The whole has been entirely renovated, respecting the charm and the patina of the materials of time. A set of large rooms make up the ground floor, living room, relaxation, equipped kitchen and dining room which gives directly on the vast larch terrace that surrounds the heated pool, original octagonal.
The five rooms on the first floor are large and bright. Each has a bathroom and a separate toilet. The very comfortable bedding is in 180 by 200. One of the five rooms offers a suite and an additional bed. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning.
On the second floor, there is also an apartment, consisting of two bedrooms, a dining room and kitchen and a bathroom.
Château MontPlaisir is equipped with charging stations for electric vehicles.
We partnered with Tesla to offer you a charging service at your destination. From now on, Tesla owners can recover 100 km of battery life per hour at our #TeslaCharging facility
The region offers summer and winter beautiful scenery, hilly, the foothills of the Alps, consisting of vineyards, olive trees, fruit trees, lavender and wood. It is also a famous region for these truffle oaks.
You can shop around the popular Provençal markets, Nyons, Vaison la Romaine or Sainte Cécile vines. In winter, we will go to the truffle market of Richeranches, 6 kms from Valréas, after skiing down the slopes of Ventoux. The walks are not lacking, which on foot, by browsing the vineyards, which by bike, in the multiple paths that crisscross the woods, which on horseback, there is a stable a few kms, which by plane, using the the grassy track of the Visan flying club, not far, and of course, we will bask in the pool of the castle. The cultural richness of the region will delight you, each city offering its architectural riches and competing to offer an original program of festivities, the festivals of Avignon and Orange being the most famous, but those of Nyons, Vaison la Romaine, Grignan or Valréas, expanding the palette of your choices.
The winemaker will propose you a visit of the terroir of Vinsobres located at 500m of altitude, and a tasting of the wines of the Château MontPlaisir range.

We had rented the entire chateau for our family vacation (15 adults and children). It is located just outside of Valreas, a little elevated, overlooking the vineyard - the Chateau also produces its own wine.
Valreas is a nice town and close to all that Drome and Vaucluse have to offer (Grignan, Carpentras, Avignon, Mont Ventoux, Baume de Venise, Vacqueras and many more wine villages).
The Chateau is old and exquisitely renovated to modern luxury standards.The 5 bedrooms on the first floor are large, furnished with antiques and each have an ensuite bathroom. The second floor has 2 apartments, with 3 bedrooms in total. All the bedrooms, as well as the downstairs living rooms have air conditioning.
The downstairs living is nice, with a high ceiling and a piano. There are 2 dining rooms and a large kitchen with 2 dishwashers and 2 fridges. There is a washing machine for guest use as well. Everything in the house is of very high / luxury standard.
The pool outside is clean (salt water / chlorine mix), perfect temperature, and adequately sized, though being octagonal in shape perhaps not big enough for lap swimming. There is ample pool side seating, lounging, dining as well as a bbq. There are 2 large gardens for playing, with additional seating and a swing. From the pool deck you have a great view on the sun setting over the vineyards.
The owners are very friendly and can provide dinner service (we used this service 2 times and it was great) and can also arrange a tour in the wine production facilities and a wine tasting (located next door). We did this and loved it.
The only 2 things to keep in mind when booking this house:
- We were under the impression that we had rented the entire house, but one of the upper bedrooms apparently was not included. We needed this room for our group (15 folks / 8 bedrooms), and could have it but, but had to pay an extra fee, which was an unpleasant surprise. So ensure you are clear on exactly how many bedrooms you have included in your whole house rental.
- The owners themselves occupy an annex to the house - this has a separate entrance and a closed off internal door from the living room. It did not bother us at all, but if you are looking for full privacy, something to keep in mind.
All in all, a great location, a wonderful house and great hosts. We will definitely consider to visit again.

Mooie Residentie in prachtige omgeving
De eigenaars zijn super vlotte mensen die afstand houden om maximale privacy te geven. Op verzoek hebben ze ons twee diners bereid van 3 gangen tegen zeer schappelijke prijzen. Ook interessante wijnkelder begeleing gehad.
Het pand heeft alles wat je nodig hebt. Zwembad ok voor wat verfrissing. Enige wat ons ontbrak was een bruikbare BBQ.
De gastheer en dame zijn nog niet zolang bezig maar doen het reeds goed en vlot, wat met de jaren enkel nog beter zal worden.
Wij gaan zeker nog terug.

Awesome experience!
The property is accurately described on VRBO but what made it amazing was Benoit! He helped us throughout our stay to make the most of our time. He also makes some of the best wine in the region!

Fantastic and comfortable
This chateau has been newly updated and very clean. We were a large family group of 11 and truelly enjoyed our stay.
Benoit and Evgenia were very sweet and accomidating. Wish we could have spent more time there and a had more time with them . A week just didn't seem like enough! It's a short walk to town. We enjoyed driving the countryside to other towns and no more than an hour drive to Avignon or Gordes. So many places to see and so much to do!
