Apartment with terrace in lively village near Montpellier and the sea.

Description

When you open the door to Appartement Francois you can't help but relax. The high ceilings with exposed beams and windows on three sides compliment the bright and airy feel throughout. The pièce de résistance is the sunny terrace, next to the fully equipped kitchen and dining area. Being all on one level makes everything easy. The apartment is situated in the historic centre of Pezenas - a lively village famous for its former resident, the playwright Moliere. Everything is mere steps away and yet once inside the apartment, all is calm and quiet. Appartement Francois is bright and airy. The ceilings are high with beautiful beams in the main living area. Tall windows on three sides allow for cross breezes and there is also an air conditioner and wall heaters so that any season is comfortable. The entire apartment is very private - perfect for relaxing after a busy day of sightseeing or working on your project. You will find that it provides you with all that you will need while you are on holiday. In fact, many guests comment that it feels like a 'home away from home.' That is the best compliment to us as hosts. You will have access to everything in the apartment, including highspeed internet, linens, etc. There are various places you can set up your workspace - in one of the bedrooms, at the dining table, or our favorite - the marble topped table looking out at the terrace and rooftops beyond! The terrace is private and perfect for sunbathing, dining or just soaking up the sounds of Pezenas -- like churchbells and birds singing. The storage cupboard is well equipped with beach towels and beach toys/chairs. You can wash and iron your clothes. There are also safety and mending kits as well as a safe for your valuables. There's even a yoga mat so you can say you did your downward dog pose while in the south of France! Other things to note - there is something for everyone in Pezenas and area -- from restaurants to brocante (antique) shops to beaches, as well as a library. We have had guests stay in the winter - writers, artists and couples wanting a home base while they travel throughout Europe. Spring brings a fresh start to those who choose to travel then. Mimosas are blooming and the air is warm and inviting. Summer is when all the artisans open their doors to the public, more restaurants appear in the most unlikely places, wine tastings abound and beaches beckon to young and old. Fall is lovely -- for bike rides, the grape harvest and any excuse to eat al fresco. We are proud to have so many return visitors and hope you will be next!
