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.
