In the ancient heart of Arles, a fascinating 17th-century mansion. Warm vibrant Julia is curator of aesthetics, cultured conversation and a gallery that combines art with hospitality. Flagstones, fireplaces and original panelling abound, homemade jams at breakfast accompany a stylish tea selection and occasional dinners are paired with wine from friends’ vineyards. And staircases wind past Chinese scrolls to your suite: exquisite tommette tiles, dreamy ‘ciel de lit,’ restored frescoes, marble touches and a small mosaic shower room with a gilded mirror. Explore Arles, a town ripe for discovery, enjoy the Camargue wilds!
I highly recommend this haven in beautiful Arles. Julia is a wonderful host and runs an immensely attractive and interesting gallery. The accommodation is charming and comfortable.
