Part of the 'mas' is permanently inhabited. The guest's quarters comprise four authentic Cevenol 'gîtes', accomodating two /three, four/five, seven /nine visitors respectively. Each gîte has its own character, is spacious, comfortable and stylishly decorated. There is a launderette where you can wash, dry and iron your clothes, and the Pigeonnerie contains a small shop that sells home-made produce and locally manufactured articles, some straight from the workshop of the mas.

Outside, the courtyards and terraced gardens provide romantic corners to enjoy the sun or lounge in the shade, which you can do in peace and privacy, or you can have a drink and a chat with other guests at the central meeting place, or play a game of table tennis at the 'Grange'. This is also the venue for group activities  and occasionally serves as a cinema.

Both before and after the high season the mas frequently is the centre of activities like 'portes ouvertes', exhibitions, courses, workshops, seminars and soirees, and in the ancient kitchen at the heart of the main building, tasty 'tables d'hôte' are served up two or three times a week.

A stay at La Donzelenche is a treat in itself..

See the morning mist slowly lift from the mountainside on your early walk, smell the odours of thyme and oregano, see squirrels and badgers cross your path while the echoes of a woodpecker's knocking ring through the forest. Breathe in, feel whole. Enjoy the lovely Mediterranean climate and its overwhelming natural beauty during the day. When night falls, wander through the mas under the stars and the shimmering lanterns within its enchanted walls, and enter a world where the nightingale weaves its spell and time ceases to exist.
