Nearest Train: Aix Train Station at 4 Miles
Nearest Beach: beach at 30.0 Miles
Car: recommended
The property is in one of the loveliest areas of Aix on the northeast side of town in a quiet, semi-country setting, but only 2 miles from the historic centre of town. It has large trees and verdant Provencal vegetation. The location is one of the best features of the property, as one can be in the centre of town in a few minutes to spend the day in the markets, the restaurants, the elegant spa, the museums, cinemas (many original version films), cafes and shops. But at the end of the day, one can quickly return to the peace and quiet of the country to sip wine and taste cheese and pate on the terrace or in the garden. It also allows people to proceed at different rhythms even if they are sharing a car, as inevitably some desire more activity than others. Certain guests like to start early; others can join them later or go home early to enjoy the quiet. One can walk home in a little over a half hour, or else get a taxi or take advantage of the frequent bus service 700 meters away.

Rental Rates for this holiday house in Aix-en-Provence, France

No rental rates available - please contact the owner

Additional information about rental rates

  • The weekly price includes everything except telephone, if the phone charges are significant. If not the owner will absorb them. There is also a cleaning charge of 85 Euros due upon vacating the unit.
    A reservation is considered firm when half the rental sum has been received by the owner. This amount is non-refundable. The balance is due upon taking possession of the property. In addition, at that time there is also a security deposit due against telephone and possible damage. The amount depends on the number of people staying in the house and the length of stay.
    For long-term rentals at the very reduced price, the booking is considered firm when the first and last months' rent have been received. Utilities are included in short term rentals but not in long-term lets.
  • A rental week is from Saturday 4 P.M. til the following Saturday 11 A.M.. Check-ins are between 4 and 7 P.M.. Children are welcome in the gate house, but are the parents' responsibility, as the property is not child-proofed. Parking is provided.
  • The high season (June 1 through October 31) weekly rental price is 1400 euros, the low season weekly price (October 1 through May 31) is 1200 euros. There is a sharply digressive rate for longer term rentals in all 3 units on the property. For the main house or the lower gate house, the cost of a 2-week rental in high season is 2200 euros (and not 2800) and 1900 for 2 weeks in low season (as opposed to 2400). For the upper gate house in high season, the cost of a 2 week rental is 1400 euros (not 1800) and in low season it is 1200 (as opposed to 1600). For both gate house units, there is a much lower rental rate for long-term rentals of 6 months or more, ranging from 320 euros a week upstairs (1300 euros a month) to 475 euros a week (1900 euros a month)downstairs. In the main house on the property there is also a very special rate for the 6 weeks beginning on January 5, 2008. The cost for the entire 6 weeks is 3500 euros.
