About this property

Stay in a 16th century three story home in the Provence countryside.

Our place is situated between Sisteron and Laragne in the old farming village of Mison.
Walk through the peaceful countryside of Mison, located in Alps-de-Haute-Provence. Pick the fresh herbs from the herb garden.

This three story home has all of the charm that one would expect from a 16th century Provence farmhouse. Some natural walls, original tiles and beams and fantastic views! The street floor has a kitchen, kitchen table, reading nook, half bath, washer machine and cave for cool storage. The 1st floor (in the US we would call this the second floor) includes a living room, dining room, master bedroom with two single beds (in some photos, the beds are put together for a king size bed), a full bathroom, large closet, desk and chair, back terrace, and plenty of storage. The 2nd floor (or what we call the 3rd in the US) has a double bed with desk. The patio in the front has outdoor seating.
This year we also have a few chickens in a fenced in pen next to the yard. So maybe some free eggs if they are laying.
Children are welcome but must be 13 or older as stated in our policies.

Sweet summer
Not only is the house beautiful, and peaceful, as well as the area which offers an innumerable amount of opportunities to escape into nature, but we also had the opportunity to meet Jim, Sue, and Karen their daughter, who were discreet, attentive and friendly hosts. A stay of great sweetness, like a summer dream.

Gîte à Mison
Très bien reçus par Sue et Jim nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cette vieille bâtisse. On sent l'histoire dans cette maison en pierre. Elle saura adoucir les chaudes journée ensoleillées du sud.

Wunderbare Woche
Wir haben eine wunderbare Woche genossen. Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig und so, dass man viel drumherum unternehmen kann. Die Gastgeber waren ausgesprochen freundlich. Eine sehr empfehlenswerte Unterkunft!

Traumhafter Blick
Wir waren zu fünft für eine Woche in dem schönen, urigen Haus mit dem wunderbaren Blick auf die Berge von Sue und Jim. Uns fehlte es an nichts. Wir haben morgens mit einem ersten Kaffee das Licht über den Bergen aufgehen sehen, haben jeden Tag frisches Quellwasser aus dem von Sues Großvater gegrabenen Brunnen getrunken, haben tagsüber die Gegend, Flohmärkte und Bademöglichkeiten erkundet. Jim und Sue versorgten uns dafür mit vielen Tips und Hinweisen. Hin und wieder brachten sie uns frische Eiern der eignen Hühner und wir haben spontan, nie aufdringlich, eine Geschichte zum Haus oder eine Besonderheit des Ortes erfahren oder selbst von unserm Leben erzählt. Wir haben sie als sehr warmherzige und fürsorgliche Gastgeber kennengelernt. Als Familie haben wir viel gekocht, Spiele gespielt, gelesen und abends lange auf der Terrasse mit Blick auf die Berge gesessen und das sich verändernde Licht beobachtet. Dieser Urlaub wird noch lange nachwirken.

Historisches Häuschen, grandiose Aussicht und herzliche Vermieter
Historisches Haus mit viel Charme und Atmosphäre. Dicke Mauern, so dass es auch im Sommer kühl ist. Einrichtung mit alten Möbeln. Frische Eier der eigenen (unterhaltsamen) Hühner. Wir haben eigentlich immer auf der Terrasse gegessen. Eigener Trinkwasserbrunnen unterhalb des Haupthauses. Blick ins (entfernte) Durance-Tal mit Bergen im Hintergrund. Nachts sehr viele Sterne zu sehen. Lavendelfeld nebenan. Sue und Jim sind interessante, offene und sehr herzliche Vermieter.

Un havre de paix!
Une demeure authentique, un calme complet et un paysage de toute beauté. Nous avons passé quatre jours ressourçants à l'occasion d'un mariage dans la région. Jim et Sue sont très accueillants et nous ont prêté tout ce qu'il nous fallait pour les préparatifs. Et une bouteille de champagne nous attendait à notre arrivée!
