We spent a wonderful, comfortable 6 nights in Avignon. We were 6 - two couples, a toddler and one fantastic grandmother. Everyone had plenty of space, everyone had their own bathroom, and the courtyard was a fantastic extra space for relaxing while our toddler napped. We had to DIY baby proof the upstairs a little bit, but managed. We were happy to find a playpen and high chair, two things we hadn’t counted on. We loved cooking at home, and the welcome bottle of rosé from our hosts’ brothers winery was a great touch. We absolutely loved our stay and would happily make this our Provençal home base again in the future. A very dreamy vacation property that definitely makes you feel like you’re on holiday in the south of France - even if your toddler needs to be in bed by 8:30.

Could not ask for a better place to stay and share with one or 2 more couples in order to enjoy Avignon itself as well as several of the lovely towns that surround Avignon

The apartment is in the heart of the old walled city, but has a real sense of privacy and quiet. Between the main section and the smaller bedroom, bath and mini kitchen, there is a spacious fully enclosed garden. The location has many fine restaurants, shops and bakeries within easy walking distance. The house is fully equipped and is much more like staying in a friend’s home than a typical rental. It has comfort, charm and convenience. We will certainly stay here again whenever we are in Avignon with friends. The air conditioning was also up to cooling the apartment even in 100 + summer heat - a great relief.

Our hosts Robin and Elisabeth were awesome from first contact thru our stay. The property is located in a pedestrian zone with shops and restaurants and is convenient to all of Avignon. Highly recommended.

The property is on two floors - a duplex apartment - but felt like a house.
It has been renovated and improved to a high standard.
It provided even more than we needed - plenty of cutlery, glasses, plates, corkscrew and wonderful kitchen if you are cooking your own food. The downstairs utility/shower room eoyj a washing machine and dryer was highly useful
too. There is also an outhouse with a further kitchen (and bedroom and bathroom) which we didn't use but would have been ideal for summer evenings spent in the spectacular walled garden.
The garden doesn't get much direct sunlight in the autumn, though the temprature was warm enough to allow us to sit outside. However, in summer it would be the perfect haven from the often intense heat.
But apart from listing the property's attributes there was also something less tangible to recommend it:
It had a really nice feel, and wasn't all like a sanitised corporate letting. It had been a family home and it felt like it.
The location, though. Is as much an attraction as the property itself.
It is on one of the old city's pedestrianised streets but once inside you hear none of the hubbub. It is very peaceful.
But outside, the street is packed with restaurants, cafes and shops.
We would highly recommend Fou De Fafa.
The Palais des Papes is about a five minute walk past an array of boutique stores, more restaurants and a cinema.
The main shopping street is even closer which has a useful Carrefour City and a Monoprix dept
store while in the opposite direction,
just as close, is the main market (Les Hallles) and the central (not TGV) station is also a short walk away.
Robin checked us in personally and dispensed usual advice (and maps) and he and Elisabeth were very responsive so we were sorry we could not stay longer.

Five of us stayed for 14 nights in this perfectly located property - with restaurants and shops just a short walk away. With 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, it was the perfect set up for us - and the central courtyard an absolute boon. If you want to be right in the heart of old Avignon but favour peace and quiet, we can thoroughly recommend this place!

This apartment is wonderful, centrally located in Avignon, with great amenities. I think the post is a little misleading -- there are only two bedrooms (but three beds) and two bathrooms, but it still worked very well for our group of three women travelers. There's a delicious restaurant two doors down, Fou de Fafa (you need a reservation), and it is a short walk to everywhere within the city walls. And it's a great bonus that parking is included! Robin was so helpful to us even though she was not in town the weekend we stayed. Highly, highly recommend this listing.
5.0
Our family adored this jewel of a house in the center of old walled Avignon. Located on charming pedestrian streets, close to epicerie, boulangerie, and museums, sidewalk cafes and dozens of shops. After a busy day exploring the marvelous city, we retreated each day to the leafy courtyard, often dining al fresco on a meal garnered from Les Halles, the farmer's market close by. We spent the entire month of June in Robin and Elisabeth Young's beautiful house and lacked for nothing. Brand new kitchen, washer and dryer, heated towel racks, room for 7, if we were so inclined, lounge chairs without and comfort within. We had a medical emergency, and Robin and Elisabeth were angels in their guidance and assistance. We always stay at a VRBO rather than a hotel, and this is the best one of all!
