our host Isabella was always very alert and quick with her answers.

This is an exceptionally beautiful house located within very easy reach of Marseille and Cassis but feels wonderfully remote. It’s probably not for you if you want to be able to walk to restaurants/shops; but there is an incredible local world to discover if you are happy using your car or public transport! The house is very well equipped and the internal and external spaces are absolutely stunning. All rooms had effective air conditioning. Isabelle the owner is really lovely and was great with communication. The pool was delightful and much loved by our children particularly. There’s also bikes and table tennis, and many great spots for hide and seek! The gardens were well kept and we loved the view of the mountains too. We did day trips most days, as tempting as it was to stay in the beautiful house and grounds. We spent 3 days discovering key sites in Marseille, and another 3 discovering Cassis and the Calanques (by boat and on foot), Aix-en-Provence, spent beach days at Plage du Verdon (Martigues) and the Prado beaches of Marseille, sampled traditional bouillabaisse in Les Goudes and fine dined in Cassis at the Villa Madie brasserie. Such a wonderful fortnight filled with city culture, history, stunning natural beauty, and sunshine. There’s much more we could have enjoyed in this region, two weeks was not enough for us! We are already planning for our return.

Had a very relaxing stay. The villa and pool were perfect. Some great local places to eat, would recommend 😀

We stayed here for our trip to the Rugby World Cup quarter finals. Despite a language barrier, Isabelle was extremely welcoming and we were able to understand each other. She gave us a thorough tour of the property and made us feel very welcome. The property is beautiful and has everything you could need during your stay. There is a fabulous bakery just up the road which we visited often. We visited Cassis, Marseilles, Aix-en-Provence, a local vineyard and the nearby mountains. This was our first time in France (other than Paris) and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
