About this property

Apartment in an Amazing Historic House, Set in the Heart of Provence

A bright, stylish artistic apartment with 2 bedrooms in a historic, renovated 500 year old convent (80sm/860sq ft)
Set in the heart of Provence with great access to all the hotspots Sleeps 2-4 people.

Huge living space with high ceilings, large windows overlooking the courtyard

2 bedrooms, first with king-size bed, second with a double + a single bed
Living space has dining table, chairs, sofa, armchairs, cd, ipod connector, wi-fi throughout the house.

Kitchen is en suite and fully equipped with ceramic hob, small micro/oven, and everything needed to cook meals. Plus coffee machine, juicers to plates, cutlery etc

There are a number of communal areas to sit, talk, eat or relax. Fresh clean bedding & towels are provided. Big garage for bikes + ping pong table + 2 parking areas which we all use. The house is perfectly hidden in a sleepy non-tourist village, with lovely local shops, and bistro's a few moments away. It is set in the heart of Provence with easy access to all the main hot-spots between 10-45 mins drive.

There are so many wonderful things to do in the sunshine of Provence. From hiking up mountains to walking through vineyards to swimming in lakes or walking through rivers that run through gorges. They are amazing local markets, and bistro's to sit and watch the world go by. Plenty of artistic things to see and places to visit, to simply relaxing and, of course, all the fantastic food and wine to enjoy!

To help you explore the delights of the area, we’ll send you a big info email with all the fantastic "off the beaten track" places we have discovered, along with some wonderful local secrets

Before booking, if you come during the hot summer months, please make sure you are fine without AC.
The apartment comes with access to a workshop/living room downstairs that remains fresh even during the heat waves. But If you are not at ease with the heat, we recommend spring and fall as the best time to visit Provence.

Lovely long term stay
Ian and Axelle are amazing hosts to their incredible historic bohemian apartment. The apartment has everything we needed to work, cook and live for 2 weeks. Plenty of spaces too, indoor and out, to relax and enjoy. Their local recommendations were what we ended up turning to the most, in order to get a more authentic Provençal experience, so that was a great help. Would definitely make a return visit!

Beautiful tumes in Provence
First things first the property was really well kept as well as the appartment itself. On top of that the owners seemed to be really friendly and kind people since they also offered additional services like providing us with information of Caromb as well as some vegetables. All in all the time spent at the appartment was amazing not only due to the appartment itself since one had also access to other facilities like a little gym as well as a beautiful tiny garden.

Kreative Unterkunft in schönem Ort
Die Gastgeber sind sehr sympathisch und jederzeit erreichbar. Die Wohnung ist mit vielen Ideen und liebevollen Details dekoriert und sehr ruhig gelegen. Die beiden Parkplätze waren leider immer belegt, aber in der Nähe findet man immer einen kostenfreien Platz. Etwas vermisst haben wir einen Ausblick auf die Umgebung und, dass die Wohnung durch die Lage zum Innenhof etwas dunkel war. Dafür war sie aber auch bei Tag und Nacht sehr angenehm kühl zu den heißen Temperaturen. Die Außenbereiche haben wir kaum genutzt. Vielen Dank an Ian und seine Familie für die Gastfreundschaft.

Music and History
How wonderful to live in the history of previous travelers from the 1500's and on. This is a place filled with light, wonderful sounds of music, as the musician of the family works on her music, and kindness. You could not find nicer people. Ian and Axelle are very generous with their time and knowledge of the area. The house is centrally located, very clean and beautifully appointed. I will return again for more time in this magical home.
