About this property

STONE COTTAGE, 2-4 PEOPLE, AT PROVENCE MAS 16TH CENT., POOL, GARDEN, PARKING

Small historical stone-built cottage PANISSE, occupying a surface of 30 sqm, is located next to the main house at a few feet from the swimming pool. In former times it served as a storage place for the Mas. Together with an architect, we gave it a new destiny. Today we present Panisse as a very charming, comfortably furnished and well-equipped space with a private terrace protected by a Provençal pergola.
The fully equipped open kitchen has been elegantly integrated into the living room. The wooden structure of the roof has been kept visible just like the stone build wall. Every square cm of surface has been preciously planned in order to optimize the comfort of our holiday makers. In the living room, you benefit from a large and comfortable sofa-bed. The children’s room next door is equipped with two bunk beds. A shower room and separate WC complete the setting.
Opening the large window panes first thing in the morning will offer you a great view on the swimming pool. A dinner - why not cooked on the plancha grill - on your private terrace next to the pool will close the day in company of the cicada chorus!
Cottage Panisse as the other three units has full access to the pool, the parking and the garden.
MAS DU GALANTIN - A 16th century Vineyard Farm (Mas Provençal), not far from the superb medieval village of Le Castellet, at 10 minutes driving distance from Bandol and the beaches:
charm and authenticity in the homeland of novel writer and film maker Marcel Pagnol. We offer you to share the unique atmosphere left by our ancestors in 3 charming Provence style apartments and a historical cottage for 2-8 persons. All 4 carry names of characters from Pagnol’s “Trilogie Marseillaise” and each of them has its own personality.
They all have private shaded terraces equipped with a barbecue or a plancha grill and private entrances. They have in common: a large swimming pool (11 x 5,5 m) on a property of 2.500 sqm facing the vineyards, our house mountain "Gros Cerveau" and a large private parking. They are all equipped with free wireless internet.
A dream of peaceful and untouched surroundings, where the easiness of living and the famous «Provençal accent» cherished by Marcel Pagnol himself persist. Here, the vineyards of the world-famous Bandol and the bronze colored olive-trees are deployed as far as the eye can see.
Mas du Galantin was first mentioned in the official books in the year 1550. It has been extended subsequently over the centuries and reached its actual size in 1897. Historically the property served as vineyard farm to the vine producing domain. It was only in the beginning of the nineteen sixties that both were sold to separate owners and became “Mas du Galantin” (the historical house) and “Domaine Le Galantin” (the vineyard).
We had the chance to become the happy owners of the Mas in 2003. When visiting the first time, we fell in love with the situation, the historic building and felt very good vibes at the property.
We undertook over the years a series of renovations and created the parking and the garden. We created the 3 apartments in the main house – César (145 sqm, sleeping 8), Marius (120 sqm, sleeping 6) and Fanny (90 sqm, sleeping 4) were born. We transformed the cottage at the pool into a cozy apartment – the birth of Panisse (30 sqm, sleeping 4)
Our guests regularly confirm our impression of our first visit – the good vibes at Mas du Galantin. They appreciate the multi-family environment. Many times, we observe children making new friends during their stay at Mas du Galantin and parents having a good time together during their holidays. Many guests are coming back – the biggest compliment we can expect.

Really charming cottage

We loved our stay at Mas du Galantine. It was a really charming place to stay in a really lovely area. We had everything we needed there and in the area, and the host was very easy to communicate with. I would thoroughly recommend it and can see why people return - as we hope to do as well.

Très contents, à conseiller

Nous avons loué le "Panisse" pour passer une semaine en famille (2 adultes + enfant de 4 ans). Toutes nos attentes étaient plus que remplies. Le mas du Galantin est idéalement situé pour des vacances au calme. De plus, les commodités essentielles sont très proches. Le Panisse, quant à lui, est idéal pour des vacances en couple ou avec des enfants, car de sa grande terrasse privée vous pouvez toujours avoir un oeil sur vos enfants qui s'amusent dans la piscine (belles dimensions). L'autre terrasse, nouvellement aménagée, permet de prendre un bain de soleil en toute intimité. L'équipement (intérieur et extérieur) est très complet. Le Wifi est très performant et la télé offre un très grand nombre de chaînes françaises et internationales. Nous avons également bien profité de la plancha tout au long de notre séjour. En résumé, nous pouvons dire que le Panisse et le Mas du Galantin en général nous ont permis de passer d'excellentes vacances! Nous y retournerons à 100%.

Immer wieder eine Reise wert

Nun sind wir wieder eine Woche daheim und freuen uns bereits auf unseren nächsten Urlaub in "Mas du Galantin". Wir sind Wiederholungstäter und haben bereits zu verschiedenen Zeiten und Anlässen hier Urlaub gemacht. Egal ob mit Kindern oder, wie dieses mal in Zweisamkeit, waren es immer besonders schöne Zeiten. Das liebevoll umgebaute Weingut lädt zum Wohlfühlen ein. Dieses mal waren wir mit den Rennrädern vor Ort und sind verschiedene Touren durch die Region gefahren. Teils sind wir direkt von der Ferienwohnung gestartet, die Region bietet sehr viele Reize - optisch, wie auch aus sportlicher Sicht :) Besonders möchten wir uns auch bei unseren Vermietern Karyn und Tom Vermast bedanken, durch deren persönlichen und sympathischen Kontakt wir uns jedes mal willkommen fühlen.

Beautiful location for a relaxing holiday.

We had a lovely two weeks in Provence, staying for one week in Panisse and another in Fanny. All the accommodation was kept to the highest standard and was as described. The Nespesso coffee machines were greatly appreciated. We found everything we needed for self catering with two young children. We especially enjoyed the barbecues. The pool area was beautiful and very well maintained and swimming there was a highlight for us all. Staying in Panisse, we enjoyed the pool views. The location was great, surrounded by beautiful vineyards and hills, yet only a ten minute drive to some beautiful beaches in Bandol and elsewhere. We especially enjoyed the beach at Renecros in Bandol. We also enjoyed buying fresh produce at the Wednesday market in Sanary-sur-Mer. There was an excellent supermarket nearby too. We found everyone very friendly and welcoming and had a great stay. Inside the apartment there was an excellent information folder with detailed maps of the area and excursion ideas.

Provençalisches Kleinod

Wir verbrachten zwölf wunderbare Ferientage im Ferienhaus "Panisse" auf dem ehemaligen Winzerhof "Mas du Galantin". Wer die Provence schätzt und gleichzeitig die Nähe zum Meer nicht missen möchte, ist hier genau richtig. Sanary-sur-Mer (sehr zu empfehlen!) ist in ca. 15 Autominuten zu erreichen, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es schon nach ca. 5 Autominuten. Wer lieber die schöne Provence-Landschaft genießen möchte, sollte sich unbedingt das alte Bergdorf Le Castellet mit seinen hübschen Geschäften und Restaurants und dem tollen Blick auf die sanften Hügel mit ihren Weinfeldern anschauen. Das Anwesen selbst haben die netten Eigentümer sehr geschmackvoll im provençalischen Stil restauriert. Das Ferienhaus ist klein, aber gemütlich eingerichtet, für zwei Personen ist es auf jeden Fall ausreichend. Das Highlight ist natürlich der traumhafte, große Swimmingpool, den wir während unseres Urlaubs sogar für uns hatten und fast jeden Tag genossen haben. Der Winzerhof hat eine besondere Atmosphäre, in der man sich gut entspannen kann. Abends ist er sehr schön beleuchtet, so dass langen Abenden auf der Terrasse bei einem Glas Wein nichts im Wege steht. Wir können dieses wunderschöne Feriendomizil auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!

A really magical destination in Provence

We recently stayed in the Cottage at the Mas Du Galantin in Le Castellet and it was a really fantastic experience. The Cottage was even better than we expected, ideal for 2 people or a family with 2 children. The property was really clean and well maintained. The facilities in the Cottage were brilliant, everything you need. The owner has done a really fantastic job with the renovations of the whole property. The location in the hills was magical and an easy 20 minute drive to the coastal town of Bandol. The property is nestled in the hills and with the blue sky and fresh air, you felt like you were in your own little world. The owner visited us a few times and was always contactable which was a real help when needing tips for day trips and good local restaurants. The Rose wine from the area is world famous and we enjoyed many a glass watching the sunset by the pool. There are many great local restaurants in Bandol and surrounding towns. This is by far the best holiday I have had for a long time and with blue skies, good food, great company and fantastic wine, I would highly recommend Mas Du Galantin to all my family and friends.....I hope to go back there next year.

Ce petit message pour dire que nos vacances ont été tout simplement géniale!!!!! Ce mas je vous l'assure vaut vraiment le détour. Nous y avons passé nos vacances cet été et nous comptons y retourner dès que possible. La maisonnette est super partique, super mignonne, nous avons adoré. La piscine juste devant nous au réveil, c'est le pied assuré. Nous avons rencontré les propriétaires lors de notre séjour, ce sont des gens très accueillant, très sympathique...... Merci à eux d'avoir construit ce petit coin de paradis.... A très bientôt Mélanie et Mathieu

Cosy provencal cottage

We had a lovely time in this small cottage Panisse with the four of us. Enjoying the provencal life like outside dining and drinking Bandol wines next to the swimming pool. The property is clean and well maintained and perfecty located in a quiet place between Bandol, La Cadiere and Le Castellet betwwen the wine ranks. This is definitely a place to come back. Tips: swimming and snorkelling in Port D'Alon Enjoy an afternoon drink under the trees in La Cadiere Make a cruise towards the Calanques between Cassis and Marseille

Urlaub im Cottage Panisse

Mein Mann und ich verbrachten 12 wunderschöne Tage im Cottage Panisse. Die gesamte Anlage mit den verschiedenen Wohnungen ist sehr sehr schön angelegt. Die Vermieter haben sich viel Mühe gegeben und an wirklich alles gedacht. Vom Liegestuhl am sehr schönen und sauberen Pool bis zur Einrichtung über Sat-Fernseher - falls Entzug - bis zu liebevoll zusammengetragenen Informationen über Möglichkeiten an Unternehmungen, Restaurants, Märkten usw. - wenn auch größtenteils in französischer Sprache war wirklich alles vorhanden. Man hört manchmal die nahe Autobahn ein wenig, aber dafür entschädigt der Blick zu den Bergen und die Morgensonne auf der Terrasse. Auch der E-Mail-Kontakt zu den Vermietern wegen unserer häufigen Buchungsänderungen war sehr angenehm. Vielen Dank nochmals! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können Ihr Anwesen mit gutem Gewissen und gerne weiter empfehlen.

About the host

Hosted by Tom Vermast

Host profile image
I am originally from Provence and Mas du Galantin was my first step towards returning back to my home turfs.

What was first a hobby, became a profession with the acquisition of a second Mas in Bandol. Renovating houses is one of my passions.

Our son is another one. He is a very lively little boy and likes to visit Mas du Galantin.

What I like most about the rental business is the many encounters it allows. Meeting our guests and seeing them happy during their holidays gives me great satisfaction!

Why they chose this property

I always dreamt of owning an old Mas. Mas du Galantin is the realisation of my dream.

The renovation of the Mas took all in all about 2 years and I continuously improve the quality and the comfort of the premises. To preserve the style of Provence is very important for me.

I am a fan of gardens and put all my love into the garden of Mas du Galantin. And here again the Provence touch is important as I use only plants from our region.

From the first visit on, I felt very positive vibrations at Mas du Galantin and many of our guests confirm me this.

What makes this property unique

Mas du Galantin is a very family friendly place - a place of encounters at the crossroads of Southern Provence.

You are close to the beaches, the pulsing life and the tourist attractions but when coming back to the Mas your relaxation time starts immediately.
