Photos and Description of this Aix-en-Provence holiday chateau / country house Grand Bastide, 7 Bedrooms + Detached Unit, 6.5 Baths (Sleeps 14)

AIX EN PROVENCE, FRANCE. Spectacular 18th century Bastide. Great shopping, dining and culture minutes away in downtown Aix but the feeling of life in an authentic Provencal estate with beautiful views of the countryside and absolutely no neighbors in site is life changing. This property consists of the 'maison principal' built in 1803 with 2 foot thick walls, tall ceilings, ancient flooring, original doors, windows and shutters. It is a truly an authentic Provencal bastide, facing due south with 3 floors of occupancy. The ceiling heights are 10 ft plus and the proportion of the rooms are perfect. The estate includes all the North American touches which will make your stay much easier and much, much more comfortable. American pillow-top mattresses, down pillows and duvets, 100% cotton sheets, flat screen TVs (2) and wireless internet. Bathrooms are basic, very functional, and for the most part, original.
