Choose a holiday apartment in Provence AptProvence is one of the most attractive parts of France. The area is particularly famous for its exquisite lavender and poppy fields and excellent wines, especially rosÉ. For many decades it's been a favored location for artists like Paul Cezanne, van Gogh and Chagall - there is a special quality to the light here which is apparent in the work of many of the Impressionists. Sportier visitors will enjoy horse-riding, hiking, golf and fishing.Those exploring the delights of Provence won't go short of entertainment. Aix-en-Provence offers a chance to soak up some of the most modern ballet performances in the world, from Ballet Preljocaj, or head for the basement of nightclub Le Mistral. Blues and jazz lovers will find music to soothe their soul at L'IntermÉdiare in Marseille. Visitors to Avignon can pick up a light lunch at Le Grand Cafe, a combined bistro/cinema/bar complex converted from an old army supply warehouse, or those in the St-RÉmy-de-Provence area should try out the Michelin starred La Maison Jaune. There are hundreds of towns and villages to explore in this beautiful region, and choosing to stay in Apt apartments will give you the flexibility you need to make the most of the area. In Marseille, the second-largest city in France and the bustling, cosmopolitan capital of the region, visitors will find a taste of Morocco in the fascinating souks, combined with traditional French fare of bouillabaisse, a fragrant, spicy fish soup. The region has been settled for many centuries - in Avignon the 14th century papal palace is a must-visit, and in Saint-Remy-de-Provence there are Roman ruins to explore. Nearby Les Baux has even more ancient remains, dating back to around 6,000 BCE. Staying in villas in Provence gives you the freedom to explore the region at your leisure. Booking Apt accommodation allows you to come and go as you choose - in effect it's a home from home. Whether you opt for the convenience of apt apartments in the centre of the city, or the tranquility of a more rural setting, a holiday in Provence is one that won't be forgotten. |
