Our favourite rooms
Each of the three farmhouses has a private pool, pretty gardens and hand-chosen art pieces, so there’s no short straw here. The five-bedroom Mas des Chênes Verts sleeps nine and is perfectly pitched for larger family gatherings.
Poolside
Each villa has a private pool, heated in the summer, with sunloungers and parasols.
Packing tips
Ditch the sword, double up on the sandals, and leave a few kilos spare for stashing the estate’s sublime wine, olive oil and honey.
Also
If updating your Letterboxd over a full-bodied syrah sounds like heaven, we hope you’re sitting down — there’s an exhibition of memorabilia from Scott’s films in the domaine’s wine cellar.
Children
Any little Smiths in tow will need to be aged 12 or older.
Sustainability efforts
Mas des Infermières makes protecting its environment a priority. Growing methods bolster the area’s biodiversity, and the estate uses a high-tech geographical information system to reduce the use of any products that could disrupt the ecosystem. This is a pollinator-kind place, too, with insecticides banned and wildflowers regularly sown. All the farmhouses use solar power to heat water, and both Villa Gris and Villa Marcou use geothermal energy to power the underfloor heating and cooling systems.
