BEAUTIFUL HOUSE near the ARENES

Location was excellent…very close to Arles old city sights…coliseum, Roman theatre, museums as well as eateries and ever important train and bus station(10 minute walk) for day trips to Avignon and Nimes.

Great property! Very clean, wonderful introduction to the property with instructions about Arles restaurants, attractions, and public transportation and the home itself. The home owner was fabulous and super attentive. Her assistant Nathalie, who greeted us and saw us off, was great as well. This was a great visit all around! Thank you Jocelyne and Nathalie !

A very nice property with all the amenities we needed. Just wish it had air conditioning!

The property was excellent and our stay was wonderful. The location looks like a postcard of a Provence street, and the house is clearly historic. The owner has added lots of great touches, from little elements for kids to enjoy, to elements highlighting Arles as the home of Vincent Van Gogh. Reproductions of Van Gogh paintings are throughout the house, and you can clearly see his times reflected... the reed chairs, the shape of the bedroom, the artfully placed sunflowers. All very nicely done.The kitchen is very functional, with all necessary cooking equipment, and made it easy to enjoy all the treats we got at the weekly Arles market. The bathroom is very spacious and modern. Although a historical home, surprisingly spacious and perfect for our family. The location is very convenient for a Van Gogh walking tour, but also just two blocks from the two thousand year old Roman Arena, and one more block from the Roman Theatre. You are right in the heart of historical Arles, within the city walls. Very handy to excellent restaurants, bakery and grocery store. The weekly market (the Little Market) on Wednesdays was jaw dropping. It was simply huge, and gave a great sense of what a Provencal market can be. Parking could potentially be challenging, but the property manager reserved us a space, held it with his car while we were touring around and moved for us again after. Otherwise we found the inner city very walkable, and easy to find street parking within a reasonable walking distance. The location was great for exploring the area. We travelled to the Camargue, Avignon, Nimes, Pont du Gard, St. Remy and elsewhere through Provence in easy day trips. My only comment for consideration (which the owner was very clear about) is that the owner and property manager speak only French. They are prepared to try to communicate, but have virtually no English, so you must be prepared to practice your French. That said, as someone with high school French from 20 years ago, I was able to communicate enough to understand, and Im so grateful we were able to have this very Provencal experience.
