The four benchmarks
Nights, meals and your quote
- The nights
- 25 sleeping places · 6 lodgings
Independent gîtes; distribution confirmed before booking.
- Meals
- In self-catering
Indoor or outdoor spaces validated according to the season and the number of people.
- The swimming pool
- From mid-May to September
Depending on the weather; shared in partial rental, exclusive in complete privatization.
- The quote
- Personalized and free
No obligation; the dates, duration and project determine the quote.
The 25 sleeping places concern the nights. Capacity, format and celebration spaces are validated separately with Pascale, before the final quote.
Optional linen · €15 / person / stay
Optional linen: sheets and towels, €15 per person per stay, for a single cottage or exclusive estate hire.
Music and DJ · full privatization only
Music and DJ of your choice only in full privatization. The Mas does not provide a DJ or sound system; contract and noise rules to respect.
Chosen and paid directly by the couple, with no fixed price imposed by the Mas
In complete privatization, you choose your music and your DJ; the Mas does not impose an end time for the music or the event. Non-accommodated visitors depart no later than midnight. The Mas does not provide a DJ, musical performance or sound equipment. The contract, the internal regulations, respect for the neighborhood, the obligations relating to noise and any SACEM procedures remain applicable.
This separation avoids an all-inclusive package that is difficult to modify. However, it requires you to reserve your service providers yourself.

Practical questions
Before building your budget
The quote varies depending on the dates and duration. If you are flexible, say so from the first exchange.
Does the price of the entire estate change for 12 or 25 people?
Exclusive hire is priced for the whole estate: the same rate table applies to 12 or 25 guests for the same dates and duration. Partial cottage rental or partial hire has a separate price.
Are the prices inclusive of VAT and what do they include?
Rates are tax-inclusive; electricity, heating and the furniture provided on site are included.
Are the lodges and spaces open in October and All Saints’ Day?
All cottages and the estate’s stay spaces remain open in October and during the French All Saints holiday. Heating is available and included. The pool retains its seasonal opening period, weather permitting.
What time can we arrive and leave?
Arrival is around 16:00 and departure is at 15:00.
Are sheets and towels included?
Optional linen: sheets and towels, €15 per person per stay, for a single cottage or exclusive estate hire.
Are the bathrooms shared between the gîtes?
Each independent cottage has its own private toilet and shower. There are no shared toilets or shower rooms.
Where to organize meals, especially in case of rain?
You can eat in your gîte or organize your meals in the courtyard and on the grounds of the estate, according to the terms agreed with Pascale. In case of rain, Côté Jardin allows a meal for up to 30 people. This meal capacity does not affect the 25 sleeping places on the estate; reception arrangements remain to be discussed with Pascale. Any barnums must be organized for your project; their provision is not automatically included.
Can you have an inexpensive wedding in Ardèche?
A controlled budget is built by comparing quotes on an equal basis: property, nights, meals, service providers and transport. Bringing together relatives housed on site can simplify the organization, but does not guarantee a reduction in the total cost.
What is included in privatization?
The privatization of the estate includes access to the spaces and the 6 lodgings totaling exactly 25 sleeping places. The details and price are specified in a personalized quote.
How to further reduce the budget?
Compare several dates, choose your service providers based on quotes and check additional costs. On site, the 6 gîtes have a total of 25 sleeping places: include their nights and any additional accommodation in the calculation.
Are music and sound included?
When the domain is fully privatized, you can choose your music and your DJ. The Mas does not impose an end time for the music or the event. Visitors who do not sleep on site must leave no later than midnight. Le Mas does not provide a DJ, musical performance, music subscription or sound equipment. The broadcast must respect the contract, the internal regulations, the neighborhood and the obligations relating to noise. It is up to the organizer to verify and complete, at its own expense, any procedures, authorizations and payment of rights, in particular to SACEM.
Is the estate close to Drôme?
Yes, Saint-Montan is located in South Ardèche, about 20 minutes from Montélimar, therefore very accessible from the Drôme.
