Traditional stone house - Provence

The house is an old stone house with terracota floor tiles and wooden beams. There are all mod coms in both kitchens. 3 showers and a bath. 3 toilets.
The house is well lived in, we have 3 lovely grown up children, all three at university but who come back home during the holidays and dump all their stuff! The house is not spotless and you might come accross the occasional spiderweb. That also means it`s ideal for a holiday not having to worry about furniture or anything.
You might want to water a few garden plants and splash your feet to cool down a bit. Watching a video on a lazy afternoon to keep out of the sun is also an easy alternative.

About the location

The house is set in the middle of fields (cereals, sunflowers or chickpeas) on one side and the Sainte Victoire mountain on the other. It`s good to have a car but we also have plenty of bikes (+ 2 electric bikes if you`re feeling lazy or it`s too hot to peddle in the sun) you can use to go and get your morning croissant and baguette. Public transport is very good to go to Aix (25 minutes) or Marseille (40 minutes). Nice (but crowded!) beaches on the Mediterranean sea at Cassis or La Ciotat about 50 mn by car. Aix is a beautiful city with its many fountains, narrow streets, good outdoor restaurants.
We have 3 cats: a black and white Jack who likes to shelter from the sun indoors and two wilder ones that stay outdoors. Ideal for two families (two separate kitchens) who enjoy the heat and like to have a siesta in the garden under the figtree.
