In the heart of the historic town of Pezenas a former 18th century convent has been tastefully converted into four holiday apartments for weekly rentals.

As you walk through the walled garden the magnificent stone building that greets you gives no hint of what lies within its walls. Pass through the gracious arched, French windows and you’re met my spacious, open plan salons, light and airy and furnished comfortably, with dining tables that seat 6-8, club chairs, leather sofas, and exquisite hand-crafted chandeliers. Fully equipped kitchens, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, etc, are neatly tucked into the corner. Ground floors also have easy access toilet facilities.

The mezzanine provides a recluse with television, DVD player and radio, there is also a sofa-bed which turns it into an extra bedroom.

On the second floors there are two double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. They enjoy garden views and adding to their attraction are antique furnishings and large marble fireplaces. With their subtle and unique decors these bedrooms provide a restful atmosphere.

Each apartment opens onto a private sunny terrace featuring a garden table and chairs for outdoor dining. They spill onto a large, Mediterranean garden with palm trees and mature plants and a wood-fence protected swimming pool. The 9×6 metre pool is cleaned by oxygen active elements which eliminate the need for chlorine, and is equipped with a jet stream for the delights of children and teenagers.

The child-friendly features of the apartments make them attractive to families as well as groups of friends seeking to enjoy a holiday together all the while having separate accommodations. These comfortable apartments boast a central location so you can walk to the local bakery, tourist office and the many restaurants in the heart of town.

A wifi network and beach towels are available.
