Paradise in salon-de-Provence
We were looking for a home with a swimming pool within walking distance to town and a short drive to interesting spots nearby. We couldn’t have found anything more perfect. Catherine has a beautifully appointed home that looks exactly as the photos! She made us fell so utterly welcome and had a terrific personalized guide of things to do. Merci a Catherine for everything. We will return again. A bientot.

Great Base for Day Trips
This property was a great home base for discovering the charms of Provence. The cottage is very comfortable and exudes the flavor of Provence both inside and out. Morning expresso in the courtyard was a great way to start the day. The village center was a 10 minute walk, and all of the other villages we visited were within a 45 minute drive. Catherine, our host, made sure we had everything we needed, and we were delighted to meet her and her friends, Stuart and Ruth, who met us upon our arrival. If you are considering a visit to the Luberon/Aix region of Provence, you would do well to stay at Catherine's cottage.

Perfect
Stayed for a week with four generations of my family with ages ranging from 90 to 2 years old. The accommodation was perfect for all age having adaptations for the less mobile and safety features such as safety gates on the stairs and the swimming pool. Salon old town is lovely with lots of restaurants in the picturesque narrow streets. There is a choice of supermarkets, the nearest only 5 minutes drive away. We all wished we had booked a longer stay

History, art and nature beauty
We spent a wonderful week in Salon.
The house was very nice, cosy, clean and provided us with a very charming atmosphere. We had everything we needed. Bedrooms are completely separate and comfortable. The kitchen and the living room allowed us to spend calm and relaxing evenings with a bottle of fine Provence rose. The garden is quiet and perfect for the coffee in the morning.
Catherine was very helpful and kind.
Salon is a very good starting point to explore Provence. One can find the extreme diversity from nature beauties (Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, Les Calanques, the red ochre sands of Roussillon), Roman history (Arl, Nimes, Orange), unforgettable French villages and small towns on the hills with castle ruins (Les Baux-de-Provence, Gordes, Lacoste etc.), art (the home of famous artists and contemporary approach - Carrières de Lumières is a must), tasty food and fine wines.

A Beautiful Property Conveniently situated
My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful week in this delightful house. This is primarily a home and as a consequence enjoys all those extras and comforts that distinguish it from a Gite rental. It is very stylised, beautiful furnished, spotlessly clean and decorated with a charming private courtyard type garden that includes a proportionately sized swimming pool. On the day of our arrival we were warmly greeted by friends of the owner who acted as managers of the house whilst the owner herself was on holiday so sadly we never had the opportunity to meet.
The house is very convenient for walking into Salon-de-Provence and we rarely had need to use the car other than for the initial supermarket shop and the odd trip out to The Carmargue, Arles and the Luberon Mountains which are all within easy travelling distance.
The only blight that prevents me from giving the house a full 5 star rating was the rather intrusive noise from construction works being undertaken to the school building at the end of the long private drive. This was unfortunate and obviously outside of the control of the property owner.
So to conclude - thank you so much Catherine for allowing us to stay in your beautiful house and please extend our gratitude to your friends Stuart and Ruth whose company we so enjoyed.

Un petit coin de paradis
Une petite maison provençale situé très proche du centre de Salon de Provence, dans un cadre splendide et un calme exceptionnel. Tout le confort pour y passer de très bons moments.
Un grand merci a Catherine notre hôte. Je recommande vivement

An ideal house in the heart of Provence
An excellent description of the property! The layout was ideal for our family, which allowed for some privacy -- we much appreciated having washrooms attached to each bedroom. The property was very clean, the kitchen was well equipped and we greatly enjoyed having a space for outdoor cooking (BBQ with a counter and sink). The yard is well designed with a dining area under a beautiful vine, a lounge area under a tree and a sunny pool area (which was used daily!). The bed linens could be improved by having higher quality sheets and having at least one duvet for optional use. The proximity to the village centre was ideal and accessible within a short walk. We were well greeted by the owner despite our tardy arrival and were pleasantly surprised to have a few basics in the fridge (eggs, milk, butter, bread, coffee, wine). Catherine made herself available during our stay and quickly addressed our questions. She took the time to check in with us mid-stay and shared good suggestions for activities in the area. No hesitations in recommending this property to family and friends, which I have already done!
