L’Ostal — Manor House with Pool in the Heart of Montfrin (Gard)
Welcome to L’Ostal, a superb 19th-century manor house with pool and garden, fully and tastefully renovated in 2024. It stands in the centre of the charming village of Montfrin, in the Gard, and makes an ideal setting for a holiday with family or friends. With 180 sq m over two floors, it sleeps up to 8 people in complete comfort.
A spacious and welcoming interior
On the ground floor (90 sq m), a large 50 sq m double sitting room combines wooden flooring with original cement tiles and is filled with light from a wide glazed door opening onto the garden. The modern, fully equipped kitchen and dining room open directly onto the garden. A separate WC and a utility room (washing machine, ironing board and iron) complete this floor.
Upstairs, four lovely bedrooms are arranged as follows:
- 1 bedroom with a 160×200 bed and private shower room
- 1 bedroom with a 160×200 bed
- 1 bedroom with 2 90×200 beds
- 1 flexible bedroom with 2 90×200 beds or 1 140×200 bed
Two bathrooms complete the upper floor, one with a bath and walk-in shower, the other with a walk-in shower, along with a separate WC. The decor blends period charm with contemporary style, with pieces sourced from local antique dealers, for an interior that reflects the Provençal way of life.
A secluded garden and a pool to relax in
The private south-facing garden of 300 sq m is divided into two areas: a terrace leading on from the sitting room and the kitchen, with a zellige-tiled table and wooden seating, and a quiet corner beneath a hundred-year-old mulberry tree, with wrought-iron seating and soft cushions.
