Into the House & Recreational Areas

One enters from a tree-lined avenue into an entry hall which leads into a sitting room with wood ceiling, tiled floors and white walls. The sitting room is furnished with a comfortable sofa and armchairs, hardwood tables, satellite television and video. Adjoining the sitting room is a half-bath. An archway leads to the kitchen/dining area with a hardwood table for six. The kitchen is galley-style with all appliances. Stairs lead down to a large and beautiful vaulted stone cellar with terracotta tiles and a window at street level. This room has a round table seating four (as an alternative dining area) and a table-tennis table. Stairs lead up from the first floor to a study/reading area showing the local stone and tile work. A pull-out sofa-bed may be used for additional sleeping for a child or an overnight guest. The study has a computer with broadband connection and a music center.

The rest of the house

Leading off the study is a corridor that leads to the main bathroom and to the air conditioned master bedroom. On the third level is a second air conditioned bedroom with half-bath. Both bedrooms are comfortable, spacious and attractively furnished. They may be set up with twin single beds or single king-size bed, on request. A completely private rooftop terrace overlooking the tree-lined avenue provides a lovely outdoor area surrounded by a variety of plants. A charcoal barbeque makes this a delightful place to relax in the evenings with good food and a bottle of the local wine. The house is located on a small half-square looking out onto a tree-lined avenue, with free parking.

What our guest have said

Here is what some of our guests had to say: Ann Minto: 'The house was wonderful, had everything we needed for a brilliant holiday and thank you for all the details in it. It was a very special place and couldn't have been improved on. A definition of paradise has to be sitting on the terrace in the evening. Local people were so friendly and I can imagine living here must be something special.' Jim Devine: 'We were delighted with the house, which is situated in the Roquette, one of the most charming old neighborhoods, within five minutes walk of the town centre. It is a very comfortable and well-equipped house, with its own roof garden. As a base to explore Arles and to take in the many cultural and historical attractions, it could not be better.' Janet Ouellette: 'Just a note to let you know that we have returned from a wonderful trip to France. We especially enjoyed our days at your beautiful house in Arles. The town is wonderful and we used it as base to explore Provence '
