High quality accommodation
A really well looked after property with a great layout inside and fantastic views. We enjoyed our summer immensely. The house was very clean and easy to keep clean. Emmanuel and Sandrine were warm and welcoming and had everything covered. Anything we needed to know they had the answers. Istres itself is a small town and it was a brilliant base for sightseeing in the region or visiting the beach - we found a lovely one 25 minutes drive away. We visited Avignon, Arles, Nimes, Pont Du Gard and Marseilles to name but a few as well as a few of the smaller towns closer by. Getting around by car was easy, as was the train. If forced to find fault I'd say I missed not being able to use a conventional gas/electric oven. There was a microwave oven that also functioned as a little conventional oven, but I couldn't work out how to use it and it wouldn't have cooked enough for my family of 5 in one go, so I didn't ask for a demonstration. It's the tiniest thing anyway. We all had a great holiday. When taking all the above into account and with the wonderful French countryside, weather and people it's amazing value and I can't recommend it enough. Thank you Emmanuel and Sandrine!!
