Photos and Description of this Aimargues holiday house 2 bedroom tower with 2 bedroom annexe to sleep 8/10

In QUIET and SECLUDED wooded grounds, our 19th century tower's beautiful thick walls provide coolness in the summer with sun or shade for lazing around, eating under the pergola or near the barbecue. After a day at the beach or sightseeing nearby, the cicadas'song will enchant you . The tower has its own private entrance and ample parking spaces. Secluded and invisible from the main property occupied by the owners (100 m away) it offers privacy and contact if needed. Indoors, the whitened stone walls offer a feel of 'being away from it all'.In Summer,''Le cabanon' a charming , well equipped annexe with two bedrooms , shower-room and separate toilet adds flexibility. Children will love exploring and playing in the one acre grounds , while teenagers can use the little train five minutes away to reach the beach in 15 mns or Nîmes in 30 mns (3 a day but more coaches from village center) . Our pool is at the disposal of guests if they wish . Who has never dreamt of a tower ?

Notes: The tower has its own 1 acre grounds and it is situated around 100 metres from the owners' house which is a 19 th century ' maison de maître ' (le Domaine de la Robinette ) which used to be a wine producing domaine . It has large outbuildings (cellars etc.. ) parts are now used as an artist's studio .(Your visit is welcomed) . Guests are also invited in Summer to use the owners' pool at their convenience . The Aimargues wine production and other local wines are on sale in the old cooperative building 50 metres away from the tower's own gate. In case of late Autumn or Winter lets the tower has on the ground-floor living-room an insert wood-burning fire-place with heat distributed in all the rooms . In case of a harsher Winter (it does happen sometimes ,even by the Med), some electric heaters can be provided . Autumn and Winter walks or horse riding on the wonderful wild Camargue beaches and marshes are invigorating and the cripsness of the skies is really stunning

Reviews for this holiday house rental in Aimargues, France

Exceeding expectations!

Review Submitted: September 17, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Despite the fact that our son got chicken pox on day 2 of our holiday, this didn't spoil our experience at 'La Tour'. The place itself is beautiful, reflecting many years of hard work, and very well equipped. We liked being within walking distance of the bakers, playparks, cave cooperative and local restaurant. The surrounding area has much to offer in terms of accessability to beaches, rivers and historic towns. Our toddler loved the freedom of the garden but not as much as he loved Francoise and Terry (his adopted French grandparents!) who couldn't have looked after us better. Many thanks again.

Our first ever holiday in a Tower

.Mark and Donella Norfolk, England
Review Submitted: September 9, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This last minute holiday proved to be one of the best we've had. The property was just as described , clean , well-maintained and had everything you could want .
Francoise and Terry spoke French and English which was a bonus to us as our French left a lot to be desired. They were exceptionally friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
Both the pool and the table tennis were a great asset to our teenage son.
We would not hesitate to recommend this property to anybody and are hoping to return there ourselves.
