We'd like to welcome you! Tell me what I can do to be your host.

A unique renovated convent, with 5 apartments for up to 32 guests. You will have private use of the whole space, including the extensive gardens and pools. Please, make yourself at home.

Our property has a Walk score of 95 out of 100! You can walk to everything: the historical centre of Pézenas, many great restaurants, and daily shopping just minutes away.

Upon reservation we send you a digital guidebook with all relevant information of the Couvent, Pézenas and the surrounding area.

You will have 5 dedicated spaces in a secure parking. If you have more cars then you can safely leave your car outside at night. There is parking in the street and a large parking area very close to the building. .

We are here for you during your stay, or we can be invisible. It’s up to you. If needed, we are only a phone call/message away.

We will be there at your arrival for a meet & greet, and to show you around the property.

Should you arrive at a different time, then you will have all necessary information to access the property and your apartment.

Please remember that you're staying in an airbnb, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect. If any problems arise, we will do our best to take action ASAP.

The shared pool is open seasonally (May to October).

Access to the bedrooms is via a spiral staircase and may not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility. In that case, we recommend our apartment Aura, which is all on one level.

The mezzanine bedroom is separated by curtains, which works well for families or friends but doesn’t provide the same privacy as the ensuite bedrooms.

Couvent des Ursulines can host up to 32 guests in 5 apartments. Each unit sleeps 6-8 guests. Here are the links to the Airbnb properties:
