Stayed for almost 3 weeks in a beautiful accommodation, heavenly situated with a view of the famous mountain of Cezanne, the Monte Sint Victoire. Walked, cycled, enjoyed the peace in and around the house and felt completely at home. Despite the slightly too high temperatures we had a wonderful holiday. The owners Marianne and Tom are very sweet, attentive and helpful people who take good care of their guests and we regularly enjoyed various types of lettuce from their own garden. Aix en Provence is a fantastic city and a culinary tip is Etude in the center where you can have a delicious lunch. Unfortunately we missed Cezanne, but from July the city breathes Cezanne. Tom and Marianne, thank you for the loving hospitality.
we highly appreciated the quiet and very nicely decorated appartment, the location close to Aix was perfect,
the welcome of the host was very nice, we enjoyed our stay a lot
Thank you
Marianne and Tom
Away from it all but not so far you canât visit it all!
The owner Marianne, and her husband, were so nice to allow us to check in 2 hours early. They gave us produce from their garden to use in our home cooked meals. The weather was extremely hot (95-100 F) during our visit and they request the air conditioning be off when you leave the house, but because part of the house is underground, it does not get hot induce too quickly. There is a washing machine for your clothes and a rack to dry them outside. Itâs dry like a desert in the summer and clothes dried quickly. Vauvenargues is a tiny village with 3 very good restaurants: pizza & other entrees at La Garde, French-Moroccan at La Couscousier, and a Michelin star restaurant at Hotel Sainte Victoire. Picassoâs castle is in the village though you canât visit. Lac de Bimont and surrounding area has beautiful hiking trails. Aix-en-Provence is so close with many opportunities for shopping and dining. We rented a car and used Parking Mignet in Aix each time we drove to town. A very lovely way to stay in Provence!
Maison et environnement magnifiques, accueil et suivi chaleureux.
Bon camp de base poir Aix-en-Provence, la promenade et le parapente (Sainte Victoire).
Die Freundlichkeit der Vermieter ist das Besondere unseres Aufenthalts. Sie waren stets unaufdringlich und ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Kommunikation klappte auch ohne perfekte Französisch-Kenntnisse.
Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet, vor allem die Klimaanlage war bei der Augusthitze ein groĂer Vorteil. Die Einrichtung ist individuell und auĂergewöhnlich mit vielen BĂŒchern und Kunstobjekten.
Vom Haus aus hat man einen guten Blick auf den Mont St. Victoire und andere nahegelegene Berge.
The house is very much like it is decribed: it is spacious, tastefully furnished and with lots of art made by the owners. Very good kitchen with everything you can think of! It is situated in a very calm area, has beautiful views and a nice garden where one can sit in the sun or in the shade. The owners were very nice and respectful towards our privacy and were willing to give us advice about what to see in the surroundings. We were welcomed with tomatoes, basil, peppers from their own garden which was very welcoming indeed! We were sorry we only stayed here for 5 nights, would have liked to stay much longer. Highly recomended for anyone who enjoyes a peaceful stay in an area where there is so much to see and where there's somethng to everyones taste! Thank you very much for letting us stay here!
