Peaceful house in « Provence »
Our house in situated in a small city called "Manosque". We are in a countryside place very calm. Manosque is sunny every days during the Summer but not too hot. The sunlight is amazing and lot of painters like Paul Cézanne appreciated these lights.

On the floor : 3 bedrooms ( 2 double bed + a single one), a bathroom and a WC.
We have a garden with a terrace, a small swimming pool for kids and we have a barbeque / grill :-)

CA1014198Guillaume and Virginie were very nice and accommodating. Their home was clean and comfortable. We spoke a number of times leading up to the exchange, and they made sure to have everything we would need on hand. They even put in an extra effort to arrange a tour for us and plan an evening dining with their friends. The family took great care of our home and left everything as it should be.
