HOLIDAY ACCOMMODATION - VACATION RENTALS

| Madame Saltiel,
Jusqu'à ce jour je n'avais pas pris le temps de vous remercier de l'accueil personaliusé que vous nous avez réservé, lorsque nous sommes venus à Pâques avec nos amis. Ce fut un week end de partage et d'amitié et notre lieu d'hébergement, au sein de votre propriété, n'y fut pas étranger! Sachez que nous recommanderons chaleureusement vos gîtes à nos connaissances! |

| Nous avons passé un excellent week end dans votre région. Le gîte mis à notre disposition était très confortable et agréable. Dommage que le mauvais temps ne nous ait pas permis de profiter de l'extérieur. L'année prochaine nous reviendrons certainement un peu plus longtemps.Avec nos remerciements.Claude Pétriat. |
| Catherine Mimeret, décembre 2010 |
| Bonsoir, un petit mot pour votre accueil. Le gite est superbe et le cadre est magnifique. Nous avons bien profité de notre week end qui fut court mais bien rempli. Le gite est très agréable en fauteuil roulant avec de l'espace pour circuler. Nous envisageons de revenir le week end du 8 mai. Quand pensez vous que nous devrions bloquer notre réservation? Très cordialement, Catherine. |

| Das Mas ist in der Nähe von arles gelegen und verfügt über einen wunderbaren grossen Garten mit altem Baumbestand. Unsere Wohnung war stilvoll und mit viel Liebe eingerichtet und wir genossen jeden Morgen das Frühstück auf dem kleinen Balkon mit Blick auf den Garten. Nach den ausflügen in die Umgebung war ein Bad im grosszügig bemessenen und gut unterhaltenen Pool sehr willkommen. Béatrice und Philippe sind warmherzige und grosszügige Gastgeber. Sie hatten immer gute Ratschläge auf Lager und kamen jeder noch so kleinen Beanstandung umgehend nach. Schlussendlich hat auch unser Hund sich in La Tourette sehr zu Hause gefühlt. Wir kommen gerne wieder. |

| Domaine de la Tourette is very well located to easily explore French Provence. A car is required in any case -no public transport. The Domaine is 3 km outside of Fourques, a village where you find two (good) boulangeries and other basic services. Arles is nearby only 10 minutes by car.
The Domaine is a superb place to relax in a vast shady garden which is well looked after and in an excellent shape. Listening to all day-long chirping of cicadas and looking into plane trees already gives you a cosy background for your mediterranean holidays. Next attraction is the large pool (roughly 14m by 5m) which is also in a very good condition and a superb place to sun-bath or to swim. There were even barbecue facilities next to the pool (which we did not use). Our appartement (Gaugin) is furnished in Provencale-style with all facilities needed. We especially liked the well equipped kitchen. The hospitality of the owners was warm and open - we allways felt very well received. More Details ► |

| We had a wonderful stay - the apartment was very clean and ideally situated for day trips throughout Provence. We had a few barbecues with friends who were able to enjoy the pool and dinner. The kids loved the place - very accommodating to families and way too many things to see in one week. We have stayed in 4 or 5 places in provence in the past and this was by far the most reasonable price for what we got. Highly recommended

| The gite is set on a rural property about 8 kilometers from arles. It provides good access to arles, Nimes, the Camargue and surrounding lovely villages such as Remy. There is lovely landscaping and the swimming pool is welcome after a hot day's touring. Mme and Monsieur are very helpful when planning excursions. The bedroom is upstairs and that's a limitation for guests with tired knees. The experience could be enhanced by the updating of some of the crockery but overall the gite worked for us.

| We greatly appreciate staying in an authentic private Provencal accommodation with excellent service from the Saltiel family. They helped us locate many sites to visit within easy day access such as Le Beau, St. Remy, Pont du Gare, Avignon, the Camargue and of course arles within a few minutes drive.
Beatrice Saltiel is especially knowledgeable in the history of the area from the Romans forward. The tranquility of their countryside home, pool and gardens was very appealing. |

Dear Beatrice and Philippe, Thank you so much for letting us stay in your wonderful house this past week. We have had a great time taking short trips to see the sites in the area. The Camargue, Les Baux de Provence and Le Pont du Gard are some of our favorites. The house was very comdfortable and we enjoyed walking along the river. Thanks too for helping us over the phone to find our way here. Once again, thank you for your hospitality. Sincerely, Grace Drown. |

| Dear Friends and Family,
"We are now finishing a wonderful two-week stay in a farmhouse located in a small village just outside of Arles. Provence was one of the two locations where we had planned longer stays (Tuscany was the other), and this has turned out to be agreat decision. similar to what we found in Tuscany, Provence has a tremendous amount to offer. the scenery includes beautiful mountains and valleys filled with vineyards and olive groves, the Camargue nature reserve and ts abundant wildlife (including thousands of pink flamingoes), and picturesque hilltop villages. this setting has been a rich inspiration to many artists, and here we've been able to see the studios, homes and subjects of Matisse, Renoir, Cezanne and Van Gogh. The whole area is deep in Roman history, and has some of the best-preserved ruins anywhere in the world. The small villages of Provence are wonderful to explore, and each one seems to have its own unique story and character. Provencal food and wine are fantastic, and we've enjoyed some delicious meals here. For all these reasons, we know that we'll leave Provence on saturday with some very special memories". Fondly, Steve, Paula, David and Katie Koppel www.koppelquests.net www.koppelquests.net/France%20Pages/October_7.htm |

| Dear Mme Saltiel,
"Thank you for providing us with such an excellent accommodation for the Christmas holiday period. We thaught Appt Gauguin was one of the best properties we have ever rented in France: it was warm, well equipped, spacious and well situated for our needs. There was even a friendly dog to greet us as we came back each time." Mrs C Brewer |

| "We wish to thank you again for your kindness and hospitality.After long walks, tours and climbs, we've had always a beautiful rest in your comfortable house and shaded garden. Really the Tuscany and The Provence are similar for their landscape, but they have both different and beautiful roman and medieval monuments."
