Description Mirabeau Afternoons: Aix-en-Provence

A saltwater pool shaded by mature trees, a landscaped garden, and a terrace made for long alfresco lunches – this is a rare find for a city-centre house in Aix-en-Provence. Multiple living areas mean a group of eight can spread out without ever feeling crowded, especially with the self-appointed studio to retreat to. When you're ready to explore, Cours Mirabeau's fountain-lined boulevard and the Provençal market are a ten-minute walk away – close enough to feel connected to the city, far enough to retreat from it.

Home truths:
* The fourth bedroom is located in a self-contained studio. It also has a kitchenette.
* You're a ten-minute walk from the centre of Aix-en-Provence, with bakeries, restaurants, and shops easily reachable on foot – no car needed for day-to-day exploring. That said, parking is provided in case you plan to explore further afield.
* If you're travelling with a baby or toddler, your host can provide a cot – request it in advance so it's ready on arrival.
