About this property

L'Olivette

You will love L'Olivette, a cottage nestled in the heart of a Provençal village perched on a hill in the middle of vineyards. It dominates the Arc valley, and the panorama includes the Sainte Victoire mountain to the Sainte Baume and Mont Aurélien. All facilities (food, restaurants, pharmacy) are in the immediate vicinity on foot. Pourrières is an ideal starting point for visiting Provence, the Haut Var or the Cote d'Azur. You will enjoy a stay that will delight lovers of active holidays as a family or couple.

The Olivette has 2 bedrooms with individual bathrooms, a kitchen-living room overlooking a south-facing balcony. WIFI, TV, fitted kitchen, microwave oven, plancha, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer are at your disposal, to facilitate your stay and be perfectly autonomous.

A balcony promises you quiet dinners, with the setting sun shining on the Holy Victory, nearby. You also have access to a space in the shade of olive trees, to have lunch not far from the pool, or to play petanque at aperitif time. A large swimming pool is shared with the owners whose independent villa is on the same plot.

A parking lot closed by a gate welcomes your vehicle safely. A small garage can safely accommodate bicycles, or motorcycles if necessary.

From the Olivette, which is a starting point for many hikes in the nearby garrigue, you can climb the Sainte Victoire, the Sainte Baume or Mount Olympus, discover the surrounding vineyards and villages by bike, motorcycle or car.

You are close to everything. Aix en Provence, Marseille, Cassis, the calanques, are easily accessible from Pourrières. Many cultural attractions, theme evenings, concerts, visits to wine estates, take place around.

Finally, access is easy, whether you come by Plane (Marseille - Provence or Nice airport) by Train (Aix TGV station) or by car (A8).

We are waiting for you.

We hebben genoten van ons verblijf. Het zwembad is prachtig en de tuin is zeer mooi. Vanop het bovenste terras heb je bovendien een schitterend uitzicht op de bergen.Ook de airconditioning in de slaapkamers werkte uitstekend, wat tijdens warme dagen zeker een meerwaarde was. Bij aankomst kregen we een vriendelijke en duidelijke rondleiding door de eigenaars. Tijdens die rondleiding werd echter ook duidelijk dat bepaalde ruimte/patio aan het zwembad niet beschikbaar was voor gasten. Achteraan het verblijf is er wel een meer afgesloten terras dat steeds vrij toegankelijk was. In de beschrijving wordt vermeld dat er twee eetruimtes zijn. In werkelijkheid is er slechts één eetruimte, namelijk buiten op het balkon. Binnen is er geen aparte eethoek aanwezig. Tijdens zeer warme dagen vonden we dit toch een gemis. Het gemeenschappelijke zwembad op zich was voor ons geen probleem. Wel viel ons op dat de terrassen en ligstoelen rond het zwembad volgens de handleiding ter plaatse voorrang hebben voor de eigenaars.De eigenaars maken regelmatig gebruik van het zwembad en ontvangen er ook bezoekers. Daardoor voelden we ons minder vrij om zelf van het zwembad en de omliggende ruimte gebruik te maken. Samengevat is dit een mooie accommodatie met een prachtig zwembad, een verzorgde tuin en een schitterend uitzicht. We hadden wel graag vooraf duidelijkere informatie gekregen over welke ruimtes exclusief voor gasten beschikbaar zijn en de regels over het gedeelde gebruik van de zwembadomgeving.

Un séjour agréable et ressourçant

Nous avons passé deux semaines incroyables dans le gîte de Patrick et Claudine. Le gîte était très confortable et l'accès au jardin et à la piscine parfait. La piscine est vraiment extraordinaire et la vue du gîte incroyable! Nous avons pu visiter les environs facilement. Nos autres ont été charmants et de bons conseils.
