What does the term "mas" mean?

In Provence, a "mas" refers to a farmhouse. These structures are strategically positioned facing South to shield them from the Mistral, a powerful wind that blows through the Rhône river valley. To ensure protection from extreme temperatures, "mas" houses have no openings on the North side and their doors and windows are designed to be narrow. It's important to note that not all "mas" are used as farmhouses. The larger ones, typically constructed by the bourgeoisie, are known as Bastides.

A "mas de ville" aims to recreate the rustic ambiance of a farmhouse, providing guests with a glimpse into rural Provençal living.
