“Lidia and Philippe were amazing and warm hosts - very helpful and friendly. The studio was very charming and beautifully arranged, complete with amenities such as oven/microwave, dishwasher and stovetop. There’s a spa area (in photo) with a jacuzzi which is what we needed after a full day of exploring Provence. We had delicious pastries and coffee for breakfast with a pool view. My partner and I went in April so unfortunately the water is too cold for a swim. Would love to be back next time to enjoy the pool! Highly recommend this place.”
“The ideal place for relaxation and carefree vacation!! Lydia and Philip make you feel part of the family and are always willing to help. The rooms are very clean and cozy with great interior design. I had one of the best time of my life chilling out by the pool and lying in the hammock among the olive trees, under the warm sun of Provence. At night you can relax in the spa under the stars. We will definitely come back!”
“The perfect place for a relaxing holiday. Lydia and Philippe will do everything to make your stay comfortable. The studios are fully equipped, clean, with a good queen size bed, a small table & 2 chairs a small breakfast bar. The shower is large with a rain shower. Outside you have a little terrace that overlooks the swimming pool.”
“Perfect place to stay just outside of Marseille/Aix in beautiful studios! Philippe and Lidia are super kind and helpful and have created lovely studios that are immaculately clean, relaxing, and have everything you need for comfort and convenience. The bed is very comfortable, kitchen has more than everything you need to cook, and the breakfast they offer in room or in the beautiful terrace is fresh and delicious. The jacuzzi and spa terrace is amazing and I’d like to return in warmer weather to enjoy the pool. Philippe and Lydia recommended a great restaurant to us as well, and we enjoyed the dinner they offer one night which was super convenient. Very professional people and great stay.”
“Into the nature, perfect location to use for daily trips, clean, peaceful, like the home on the countryside you dream to have. Spent a week there, neither one bad comment. Much love for Paco and Pepy thank you Lydia and Philippe!”
“Thank you Lidia and Phillipe for the most wonderful stay. The place was perfect - quiet comfortable with the added bonus of being welcomed by your beautiful dogs at our window and most of all your incredible hospitality. We knew it would be wonderful when on our arrival, Phillipe told us he and Lidia were here to give us the us the best experience. Our experience was wonderful beyond expectation. You will both be remembered as a highlight of our trip. We will be back in 2024 knowing we will always have a room here in this beautiful place. Fresh coffee and breakfast delivered with a smile every morning! Highly Recommended. Be prepared to be embraced by this wonderful couple with a commitment to making you feel at home! Loved it. Mille Grazie! Anna and Vince Melbourne, Australia”
