South France Apartment - 2 Bedroom Rental in Puyloubier, Provence (PR-1177)

You get the best of both worlds with this apartment, a charming two bedroom in the center of a typical Provençal village. Options for hiking and exploring abound right outside of this quaint little community. You'll still find everything you need right in town though, at the boulangerie, the supérette or at the tabac-presse.

The apartment is located on the ground floor of a three story (two French floor) townhouse in the village of Puyloubier, close to Pourrières. The two bedroom accommodation is fully furnished with everything necessary for a stay of any length. Some of the amenities of the apartment are:

• Living room with armchairs, sofa, TV and DVD
• Washing machine
• Open kitchen with bar-style eating area
• Oven
• Microwave, coffemaker, toaster
• Refrigerator
• Dishwasher
• Double bed (140 cm wide) in the master bedroom
• Single bed (90 cm wide) in the second bedroom
• Bathroom with combination shower-tub, toilet, sink, window and heated towel rack

This vacation rental provides a window into the peaceful, traditional lifestyle of Provence and the French countryside. High above the small towns of the valley is the Montagne Sainte-Victoire, the peak crowning a dramatic ridgeline that dominates the surrounding area. This scenic area is popular for camping and is also close to other attractions. Aix-en-Provence is a mere 28 km (30 minutes driving) away from the apartment. For more excitement, head to Marseille, 55 km (45 minutes by car) to the southwest. At the same distance are several sandy beaches on the coast, providing a nice contrast to the cool and dry mountain air.

Finding your way from the Marseille-Provence airport to this vacation rental is easy and fast, taking about 45 minutes (a distance of 50 kilometers). It is also very easy to drive to the location from Paris and Northern France. Puyloubier is right off the A8 autoroute, the easiest way to get around the South of France.
