Pretty Provençal Apartment w/ Private Pool and Summer Kitchen. Pet Friendly!

Wake up in our peaceful green corner of Provence, breakfast beside your own private swimming pool and step back in time and enjoy the slow pace of life in our sleepy southern French village situated within the Golden Triangle of Provence.

The large graduated pool is bordered by conifers for privacy and equipped with a security cover and family sized solar shower. It is open from beginning Aprll to the end of October making La Soleillade an ideal location for your Spring or Autumn break.

Your independent ground floor apartment sleeps up to four plus baby, the garden is completely enclosed to allow your pet to roam free and your accommodation comprises a large living area with doors to the south facing patio. There's a SmartTV with connection to British broadcasts, a DVD player with a selection of movies and a dining area for cooler evenings. You have one double bedroom and one twin bedroom plus one of the sofas also converts to a double sofabed. There is also a boxroom with a travel cot for baby up to two years. You have a fully equipped kitchen decorated in the Provençal style with local colourful pottery and a bathroom with a large walk in Italian shower, toilet, Mexican porcelain hand basin and a selection of local olive based soaps.

There's a Summer Kitchen equipped with facilities for making your own paella, a plancha grill, a fridge freezer for cool poolside drinks and an inbuilt charcoal barbecue. Meals can be enjoyed on the patio and the pool is surrounded by loungers for sun worshippers or, if you prefer, you can just float up and down the pool in the large inflatable armchair.

Your apartment benefits from a southerly aspect so you have the sun all day long. It's within walking distance of shops, bars and restaurants and has a direct bus service to Avignon.

Nestling amongst the vineyards of the southern Cotes du Rhone La Soleillade is particularly suitable for wine buffs as you are surrounded by the major wineries of Laudun, Lirac, Tavel and Chateauneuf du Pape.

If you have limited mobility, the apartment has easy access and a large spacious walk in shower.

Avignon is 20 mins away with its arts festival in July. You have three of the most beautiful villages in France within a 20 km radius and you can discover the World Heritage Sites of Orange and the Pont du Gard or visit Arles and follow in the footsteps of Van Gogh or just wander the cobbled streets and enjoy the weekly Provençal market in the Duchy of Uzes.

"But of course the heart of it all is Avignon with its honey-coloured, rose-faded walls and machicolated towers rising steeply from a country dusted silver with olives, and, more likely than not, swept by the roaring mistral."
— Lawrence Durrell Avignon
