We are looking for an exchange for summer 2023, in Europe and ideally in Northern Europe. 2 to 4 weeks.
Our house is located in Mouriès, a village in the Alpilles natural parc in Provence. It's famous for olive oil, hills and traditionnal villages.
It is a very quiet place, ideal to spend sunny holidays and enjoys all must-sees from Provence : villages (les Baux de Provence, Saint Rémy de Provence),
markets, hiking and biking, cities such as Arles, Avignon and Marseille.
We live in a beautiful house, 120 m2, very bright. It can host up to 6 people, but ideally 4 as we have 2 rooms. You can enjoy sunset on a large terrace with beautiful view on olive fields.
The space
The house is located in the olive fields. It is a beautiful house made by Rémy with stone and wood.
Its 120m2. There are 2 rooms (1 double bed, and 1 with 2 single matress) and a large mezzanine with a double bed. We have all equipements for babies (bed, high chair...) .
The house is very bright, with a large terrasse for diners and enjoy sunset, and a place under oak trees to have lunch in the shade. You can enjoy unlimited outdoor space and go hiking from the house, but we dont have a proper garden with grass. A small canal 3 minutes away offer a nice refreshment in the summer.
Guest access
The main rooms are located on the ground floor and are easily accessible : rooms, loving room, bathroom.
The access to the house has stones so it will not be accessible to wheelchairs.
The house is equiped for young kids and the stair to the mezzanine can be closed.
Notes
We have 4 bikes.
We can consider car exchange if reciprocal.
