Apartment in Centre of Old Medieval Village
Peaceful Location with Beautiful View to Rear
Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)
|
|
The property is on the third floor of an old village house which was formerly a monastery. It was tastefully updated and converted into apartments approx. 15 years ago. The apartment itself is on 2 levels with an interior staircase and a small roof terrace with views over the surrounding countryside. Although central to the village it is very peaceful and the other apartments are generally quiet. There are electric heaters for the winter and the whole apartment is simply but tastefully furnished, giving an ideal and comfortable base for getting to know this area of Provence.

Notes on accommodation
Electric heaters are used in winter and there are fans for summer. Outside space is very limited and therefore would probably not be suitable for children who wished to play outside, although the village generally is regarded as a safe environment which older children could be left to explore. The roof terrace is accessed from Bedroom 2 so small children might be safer sleeping downstairs. Sensible older children would be fine upstairs.
