We loved this home, this land, this property, the neighbors who are families of the owner, and the view. We vowed to return again and again. A car is essential, the drive into Aix is about 15 minutes, the eggs are fresh every morning, the chickens did not wake us up, the neighbors were charming. There was one double bed in each bedroom, with three close together and one upstairs. We had such a special time lounging on the outdoor beds. Loved every moment of this truly special vacation.

quelles belles vacances !
quelles belles vacances !
Nous avons passé en famille d'inoubliables vacances dans cette maison pleine de charme située dans un cadre exceptionnel, à quelques minutes seulement du centre d'Aix. Découvrir le potager et le poulailler a été la "cerise sur le gâteau" qui a agi comme un aimant sur les enfants et permis à tous de se régaler ! Pour ne rien gâcher, les propriétaires se sont montrés très disponibles et adorables. A refaire dès que possible.

Excellent séjour sur la plateau de Bibémus
Excellent séjour sur la plateau de Bibémus
Propriété basée sur le plateau de Bibémus, dans un environnement complètement préservé mais pour autant à 3 km d'Aix. La maison est aménagée avec goût aussi bien à l'extérieur qu'à l'intérieur et la propriétaire des lieux est accommodante. Séjour parfait au calme au milieu de la garrigue et à deux pas de la Sainte Victoire. Situation idéale

A wonderful place

A beautiful sight at the St.Victoire is a very good plus in the description of the location; a comfortable house where our grandchildren felt very comfortable when they visited us and we felt at home in a very short time. We look back at a very nice stay at a wonderful place.

"Une maison pleine de cha...
"Une maison pleine de cha...
"Une maison pleine de charme dans un environnement superbe, face à la Sainte Victoire et dans les pas de Cézanne, et à quelques centaines de mètres du centre-ville d''Aix... Un séjour extrêmement agréable. Madame D''Hauthuille s''avère être une hôtesse accueillante, toujours prête à donner quelques conseils avisés sur les activités locales, et attentive au bien-être de ses locataires. Un séjour en tout point remarquable."
