We love being in the nature . When staying with us, you will be a part of our family and everyday life, and that includes helping with the daily chores; handling food or doing the dishes after meals.You will have your own comfortable private room and private bathroom for the duration of your stay. We cook with local ,organics products.We would love that i you like to cook.
    You will be offered three meals a day, a typical simple light French breakfast . A hot or cold lunch and an evening meal .We are also happy for welcoming you to join us in our activities. Also,We have a nice bit of land, where you are assured to find a private spot to relax, to read, enjoy your time or just work on your tan.
    There are beautiful villages to visit nearby , in your free time . you have many paths to bicycle .We live 15 minutes away from the center of Arles. Arles is a town situated in south-west Provence. Surrounded by nature, we have the perfect balance of town and countryside.
