Fabulous place to stay in Aix
This was a perfect place for a couple to stay. Private, but the owners, who are lovely, are available should you need anything. The grounds, with pool and tennis court (which we took full advantage of), are gorgeous. Convenient both to downtown Aix and to the highway. Would definitely stay there again.

A week in Aix
We were warmly welcomed by our hosts and provided with a range of very helpful information regarding local attractions and amenities. Would love to have stayed longer if time permitted.

Wonderful Provençal experiene
Our lovely hosts, Rachel & Jean, couldn’t have been more welcoming and we enjoyed our stay at our cottage. Location was perfect for us as we were visiting friends in the Luberon so easy access as well as being close to Aix where we could walk (30 minutes) or drive down to enjoy the town. Very restful property with lovely gardens & pool.

Great Experience in Aix
Great apartment attached to home a few minutes by car from Aix en Provence. Family is lovely and friendly and went out of their way to assist in any way they could. Great location to travel by car from for a weeks stay.

Wonderful few days in Aix
We had such an enjoyable and wonderful stay! The self contained house/apartment had everything we needed in it and Rachel and Jean went out of their way in their communication beforehand and during our stay to make us feel welcome at theirs. Thank you so much for having us and being so welcoming! Merci!

Rachel and Jean were warm and welcoming hosts. We wish we could have stayed longer.
The apartment in the back of the house was perfect for us. Setting was beautiful and tranquil. Location was a great "jumping off" point. Hosts were extremely gracious, and very helpful to two frazzled jet lagged travelers. Only downside is that it is somewhat hard to find the first time. We would highly recommend the lovely house and hosts.

Beautiful location. Probably would be easier with a car but we managed just fine without one. Could walk everywhere. Pool was a nice plus at the end of the day. Family was very enjoyable. Loved Aix and would love to visit again.

First holiday with our baby in Provence
We absolutely LOVED our stay with Rachel and Jean. They could not have been more welcoming or accommodating. Nothing was too big an ask and they were on hand at all times! The accommodation is lovely and perfect for a small family. The addition of Badger the golden retriever was a VERY welcome one in the mornings :) we would whole heartedly recommend this listing and hope to be back soon :D thank you both so much for making our first holiday with C such a memorable one x x

Wonderful vacation
We had a wonderful vacation, staying at the property of the lovely couple Rachel and Jean. They both made us feel very welcome and they made our vacation something really extra. They also gave us a lot of suggestions what to do and where to go in the area. We didn´t even have to miss our dog too much as we quickly got a new friend in Budger-the -golden -retriever. We highly recommend this place and we would love to come back another year. Next time we will bring one of our grown up children as there were plenty of space for three persons in the appartment.

Fantastic hosts in a lovely home
Stayed for three nights in May 2023. We arrived late with a car sick baby and Rachel and Jean couldn't have been more welcoming, understanding and helpful. They immediately grabbed our cases and put on a wash for us (more than once!) The property is a short walk - 15 mins or so - into town and Aix itself is beautiful, plenty of bars, cafes and shops to keep you entertained. Rachel & Jean were attentive throughout and very helpful, and Badger (their lovely dog) helped look after our baby. Highly recommend!

Extra Special in Aix
My husband and I stayed in the cottage on our first visit to Provence in early September 2011. It was the perfect place to get away from the bustle of the city and/or relax after exploratory day-trips by car. It is secluded on the gated property of a private estate, is safe, quiet, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was adequate for preparing simple meals. The pool and Weber grill were great bonuses made available by the owners who also provided an up-to-date collection of maps, guides, attractions and local restaurants. The owners were on site and generously informative when we requested but unobtrusive in respect to our privacy. We would return to the cottage in a heartbeat.

Liked: Location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness
Unsatisfactory
We booked 3 nights at this location. Rachel was very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately the property did not meet what we consider to be acceptable standard for accommodations. The white towels were grey, thin, and hard. When we looked at the mattress in the single bedroom as one does nowadays, the mattress had several stains. We expected better. The living area is tiny. You need a car here since the house is only accessible via an unlit long road. There is no doubt that Rachel is gracious and helpful in the extreme, but to us the conditions of the bedding, towels, and shower area were uninviting and unpleasant. We checked in around 7 pm, and left by 10 pm having to scramble for last minute accommodation. Unfortunately they have refused to give any refund.

Environnement champêtre
Environnement champêtre à proximité du centre-ville et très bon accueil des hôtes. Notre seule réserve se situe au niveau de l`exiguïté de l'espace commun réunissant cuisinette et salon et du sous-équipement des ustensiles de cuisine notamment l'absence de couteau pour la préparation des aliments

Merveilleux séjour!
Tout était absolument PARFAIT ! Le cadre, l' accueil, et même le chien! Seul problème, c' est qu' avec de telles conditions, vous ne serez pas bien motivés à partir visiter la région 😀 ! Un grand merci pour ce long week-end merveilleux !

Eine Oase der Ruhe in wunderschöner Umgebung
Der Aufenthalt in der Wohnung war sehr erholsam. Der Vermieter war sehr fürsorglich, und sein lieber Hund "Budger" bei uns ein gern gesehener Gast. Die Wohnung war sauber und mit allem ausgestattet.

Le vrai calme aux portes d'Aix
Extrêmement bien situé et beaucoup de calme dans cette belle propriété disposant d'un immense terrain arboré. Equipements extérieur au top même si nous n'avons pas pu nous baigner et profiter de la piscine, la météo n'étant pas favorable. Décoration intérieur jolie dans l'espace nuit. Espace cuisine/salon un peu petit.

Nice country urban getaway
The owners were welcoming, supportive and generous, a bottle of wine and rescue from our ill-fated search for food the first night. The yard and pool were great for lounging in the heat of the evening as the interior is not air conditioned. Windows and fans helped cool the unit down, but screens on the windows would have reduced the intrusion of bugs. Through constant use of gps we became able to navigate to downtown parking in Aix and to explore the region. The lavender was in full bloom on the Valensole plateau and the small towns in the region were well worth the visit.

Ideal für Sportler
Kleiner zweistöckiger, funktional eingerichteter Anbau neben dem Haupthaus, in dem die sehr netten, englischsprachigen Vermieter wohnen. Weitläufiger Garten, ruhig und ländlich, dennoch ist Aix fuss/fahrradläufig erreichbar. Ein sehr lieber Golden Retriever weilt gern bei den Gästen , daher eher nicht geeignet für Menschen mit Angst vor Hunden.
