What does 'Mas' mean?


Additional Details
I was in France recently, and I saw it quite a lot when on the road. I think it may be something like a farm for wine, or a type of house, something like that.
It looked like the driveways to provate properties. But I would like to knw the exact meaning of it :)

It is a type of house typical of the Provence region.

A "mas" is a (country)house in the south of France (and particularly in Provence, a "mas provençal"), that's all.


Cabal
It is the name of a local house in the south of France, usually old farmhouses now. It is a house of no more than one or two levels. with a roof of tiles and walls of local stones.

It sounds Spanish because it is a word from the old southern language Provençal which is a close cousin to Spanish and Italian.
