Come for a lovely old laid-back stone house, with pretty views of fields and hills. Here lives Sheila, with cats and ducks! You can share the family’s living space or retreat to the guest sitting room, but summer evenings are usually spent outside, drinking in the scents and peace. Breakfasts with delicious fig, cherry and apricot jams set you up for the festivals and flower markets of Aix (6km). Return to comfortable beds on carpeted floors and ceiling fans to keep you cool. Time it right (from May to October) and you can join in with the lavender and olive harvests: great fun.
We just returned from a lovely stay at Les Arnauds. Very well situated in the countryside 5 minutes from Aix, close to Luberon, Marseille, and Avignon, we were able to visit and enjoy many of the sites and sounds of Provence. We will surely return as soon as we can. Sheila was great and also recommended a wonderful B&B for us in Paris, in a nice quite home, which we thoroughly enjoyed. A bientot Sheila.
