Lucerta Bella

Lucerta Bella offers a single 40 m² holiday home, arranged over two levels for two people. The sleeping area is upstairs, with a private bathroom equipped with a shower and a hairdryer. On the ground floor, the kitchen has the equipment you need to prepare meals: an oven, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, kitchenware and coffee machine. Air conditioning is available on both floors.

This layout offers the space of a small house to yourself rather than several room categories. A private entrance leads into the accommodation; the terrace overlooks the garden and has a barbecue. A washing machine is also available. The living area is equipped with a TV with satellite channels. The large double bed accommodates two guests, while the private bathroom and kitchen provide separate spaces for sleeping, getting ready and sharing meals.

Air conditioning is a useful feature in the living areas spread across two floors.

Outside, the tree-lined garden is complemented by a furnished terrace, a barbecue and garden furniture. The outdoor pool is shared and open all year round. For getting around, free private parking is available on site without prior reservation. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. A TV, satellite channels, radio, and CD and DVD players complete the multimedia facilities. The house has a private entrance and a safe.

Aix-en-Provence stretches between a lively old centre and more residential districts that give way to the open landscapes of the Pays d’Aix. Lucerta Bella is on the Route du Puy-Sainte-Réparade, north of the centre. This address suits travellers who want to stay in a house with a garden and head into town for its shopping streets, shaded squares and museums. You can also discover the Provençal pace of life by taking time to wander through the historic centre, among fountains, stone façades and café terraces.

The centre of Aix-en-Provence is a few kilometres away. The Cours Mirabeau, lined with townhouses and plane trees, leads towards the narrow streets of old Aix. Atelier Cézanne offers a glimpse into the painter’s world and workplace; Musée Granet houses art collections in a former priory. Terrain des Peintres offers a viewpoint over landscapes that inspired Cézanne. Aix-en-Provence train station is 5 km away and Marseille-Provence Airport is 21 km away. A car makes it easier to travel between the house, the centre and the surrounding area.

For a day in town, you can explore the centre on foot, visit a museum and then take a break on the Cours Mirabeau. In fine weather, the gardens and outdoor spaces invite you to slow down between visits; spring and autumn temperatures are often pleasant for walking. In summer, it is best to plan visits for the morning and save the hottest hours for a break in the shade or by the pool. The region also offers opportunities for trips to the landscapes of Sainte-Victoire, associated with Cézanne’s work.
