If you want a quiet neighbourhood, nice home, great outdoor space and a lovely pool - all while within walking distance of the centre of Aix en Provence, this is the place to stay. Our hosts, Jose Luis and Artell, we’re responsive to our queries ahead of our stay and waiting for us at the driveway upon arrival despite the late hour.
The house was clean and well equipped. (I would suggest the addition of a freezer.) The terrace is lovely for meals or napping/reading on a lounge chair under the awning during the mid-day sun. The pool is also a good size (bigger than it appears in the photos, we thought). The garden has many interesting plants and if you are there at the right time of year, you have an abundance of fruit from the cherry tree.
The walk into the beautiful centre of Aix really is only 20-25 minutes and the roads all have pavements (sidewalks) and are well lit so, it is fine in the dark as well. We can highly recommend a visit to Le Petit Verdot for dinner. Great food, wine and service!
We would happily stay again et merci beaucoup Jose Luis et Artell. (Mon Francais est tres simple donc, j’ecris en Anglais.)
