Mme.Marie-Claude FERRI  2A, avenue Gasquet ("La Coupo Santo" is the name of the place)
tel. 04 90 92 09 69
One of 3 in a rather new, separate building across a small courtyard from the owners' residence, quiet, beautifully decorated & with all the comforts, a very short ride from the center. This cost 230FF per night with a fine & generous breakfast; same room for 2 people is 270FF. The owners are a friendly couple in their 50s who speak hardly any English but who are quite patient with & encouraging any French in extended conversations.My friend David Gascon had dinner with them (offered for about 90FF extra, well-prepared Provençal home cooking with wine à volonté, he was the only guest that night). It was particularly memorable. About the decor: the sun coming through the patterned yellow window drapes was reflected off a similar bedspread & drape above the bed (on ceiling), past the little vase of yellow flowers on the table, onto a print of Van Gogh's Sunflowers on the wall opposite. Perfect! Of course done by Mme Ferri herself, & she took some pride in it when David mentioned it.

Chateau de Roussan, 2 km away on the road to Tarascon. Tel 0490921163 fax 0490925059
These domains had a very famous host: Nostradamus. In a sumptuous house of the 18th century, spacious, nicely furnished, all open on the park but with extremely simple bathrooms. I hope they arranged that. And maintenance was also not at its best level….  But prices are not too high.  Double with shower and WC from 430 to 600 FF (a very beautiful room for 750 FF). You can group 2 rooms to make an apartment.
