A wonderful family holiday for 3 generations
We Australians spent two weeks at this idyllic spot during August 2016, together with our two grandchildren (aged 2 and 4 years) and their parents from the UK. The house was modern, clean, roomy and comfortable, fitted out with everything we six needed. Our hosts were nearby and their assistance was generous and gracious. We felt at home in a foreign land. We left our busy lives, and soaked up the peace and tranquillity of this sprawling property.
The crystal blue pool was for our exclusive use, large and clean, so refreshing in the summer heat. We used it everyday. From there we looked directly onto the magnificent Sainte Baume mountains. The skies were blue, the temperatures perfect at around 30 degrees. An air conditioner was at our disposal. We enjoyed balmy evenings with easy barbecue meals outdoors, savouring the French wines.
We visited the cave shrine of Mary Magdalene in the Sainte Baume mountains, with lovely views of the surrounding countryside. We drove to the beautiful Mediterranean cities of Cassis and Marseille, each only a 45 minute drive away.
We strolled many times to the small Centre Ville of Nans Les Pins, to eat at the local restaurants, or to buy groceries and sample the delicious freshly baked pastries and bread from the local patisserie.
We really experienced the authentic life of a small French village, away from tourist crowds of bigger cities. This holiday was everything we wanted and needed. Many thanks to Anne Marie and Michel for your hospitality (and the delicious home grown tomatoes and peppers). We will always remember this special time with fondness.
