Cottage, near Aix en Provence, with sunny terrace and outdoor fountain

In the heart of the old village of Peynier, T2 - 36 m² with 15 m² private terrace, very well exposed, very quiet. Completely refurbished. Very charming.
Ideally placed to shine in the Provence of Paul Cezanne and to do tourism from the Alpilles to the seaside beaches.
The rental also allows you to take advantage of the many summer festivals while being quiet in a village.
Peynier being a village, it is possible to do your shopping on foot from the cottage. (butcher, vegetables, bakery). In addition, numerous possibilities of excursions on foot are possible as of the exit of the house.

The warm welcome and assistance from Mylene were invaluable. The unit was beautifully appointed, private, secure and cozy. The location in the heart of this quiet, historic village was perfect to experience the unique architecture and lifestyle of old Provence, yet the amenities were totally up to date. We could not have chosen a better rental to enjoy our first visit to the region.

Amazing cottage in a cute village!
It was a pleasure staying with Mylene in the independent / self-catering cottage in Peynier. Mylene was super helpful in everything and the cottage had everything you could want in a "home away from home." We cooked almost every night with products from a local provencal farm and surrounding stores in Peynier. The small village is accessible to both the beaches and the luberon mountains as well has tennis courts and nice forest areas to go for a local trip. We thoroughly enjoyed our holidays!

A little piece of paradise
The cottage was charming, well stocked and very clean in a quiet, peaceful village. Mylene was an excellent host. She anticipated our every need, providing maps, city guides and umbrellas for our rainy day. She gifted us with welcome treats—traditional cookies, homemade jams and drinks. I want to keep this place as my secret, it was so enjoyable and relaxing stay—we felt at home.

Peaceful, well-equipped, good location
The little garden house is modern and well-equipped, with a very good and new kitchen. It's a peaceful spot built at the back of a garden, but accessed via a cul-de-sac, in a pretty and quiet village. The location is great for exploring 'both sides' of Provence (seaside and Riviera, as well as less touristy parts further inland), with various motorways relatively close at hand. Mylène was very easy to communicate with throughout, and provided a nice welcome present of Navettes d'Anis which we enjoyed. Good value for money for what it offers, the terrace would be lovely in summer no doubt

Great Host
We stayed for a week and very much enjoyed ourselves. We cooked in evenings at least half the time. Near by (not in the village) was a really great fruit and vegetable market, amazing assortment including cheeses and even chanterelles! but the veg selection was amazing for a small town. Mylene was a terrific host, she gave us many suggestions where to go and what to see in the area. Some of which we would have otherwise missed. Thank you!

Ankommen und nicht mehr weg wollen
Es gab keine Minute, die wir in dieser kleinen Oase nicht genossen haben. Das Studio befindet sich in einer Seitengasse des Ortes, vollkommen ruhig gelegen. Beim Zutritt offenbarte sich uns ein kleines grünes Paradies, eine wunderschöne Terrasse mit bequemen Sitzmöbeln, einem Springbrunnen das alles umgeben von Oleander und Orangenbäumchen. Zur Beschattung dienen zwei Sonnensegel, es ist sehr ruhig und nicht einsehbar. ... und als wenn das nicht schon genug des Glückes ist: das Studio hält auch hier mit: sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, ein großer Schrank, ein bequemes Bett. Die Küche ist toll ausgestattet, alles modern, sauber und stilsicher. Mylene und ihr Mann waren herzliche Gastgeber, sehr bemüht, dass es uns gut geht und trotzdem nie aufdringlich. Das war mir Abstand eine der schönsten Unterkünfte und die Gastgeber haben und das Gefühl gegeben als Gast zu kommen aber als Freund zu gehen. ♡ Merci beaucoup

Freundliche aufmerksame Gastgeber. Neu und chic ausgebautes separates Hinterhaus mit eigener Terrasse mit altem Springbrunnen und vielen Blumen. Schöne Atmosphäre mit Blick auf verschiedenste Hinterhöfe/Terrassen. Mit dem Bus konnte man problemlos und günstig nach Aix en Provence fahren oder in die Umgebung des Mont Ste. Victoire erwandern.

Beautiful holiday hide-away with lovely hosts
The flat is an own building on the property of the hosts with an own patio surrounded by lots of greenery. It is accessible via an own gate and is, although on the same property, very secluded with lots of privacy. The flat is very well furnished, maintained and very clean. The hosts are a very lovely and caring couple. They gave us a lot if helpful tips for trips and were available for questions anytime. Our stay couldn't have been more comfortable :).

Schöner Paar Aufenthalt in der Provence
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Urlaub in der netten, gemutlichen und liebevoll eingerichteten Wohnung. Die wunderschöne gestalte Terrasse hat uns jeden Morgen zum Frühstück rausgelockt. Unsere Gastgeber haben uns herzlich begrüßt und uns hervorragend über mögliche Aktivitäten in der Umgebung beraten. Die Küche war sehr gut ausgestattet. In dem schönen kleinen Örtchen bekam man alles Nötige in Fußnähe. Das einzige Manko war der leichte Schimmel in der Dusche. Zusammenfassend können wir die Unterkunft wärmstens Empfehlen. Vielen Dank an Mylene und ihren Mann dass wir dort bleiben durften. Kommen gerne wieder!

Wunderschönes Häuschen
Wir waren begeistert von der Idylle, die wir inmitten einer Altstadt vorfanden. Mylène ist ein begeisterte Gärtnerin und hat die Terrasse wunderschön gestaltet. Das Häuschen ist modern mit allem was man braucht ausgestattet, alles sehr sauber, gute Matratze und wir können den Vormietern nur zustimmen, dass man wertvolle Tipps von Mylène für seinen Aufenthalt bekommt, z.B. in Cassis oben am kostenlosen Parkplatz zu parken und mit dem Bus in den Ort zu fahren. Oder mit dem Bus für 1,30 Euro nach Aix-En-Provence zu fahren usw. Man sollte sich jedoch gut mit Mückenspray für die Abende ausstatten, die leider überall in der Provence eine leichte Plage sind. Wir haben aber gelernt, dass sie nicht jeden "mögen". Uns leider schon... Aber auch dafür hat Mylène für draußen eine Räucherschale.

Sehr schönes und gut ausgestattetes kleines, modernes Studio. Das Highlight ist die private Terasse. Mylene und ihr Mann sind sehr freundlich und haben uns tolle Tipps für die Umgebung gegeben. Die Kommunikation war super und Sie wohnen direkt nebenan, aber man hat das Häuschen und die Terrasse für sich alleine. Peynier ist ein sehr charmantes kleines Dorf (mit guter Bäckerei) und eignet sich super für Tagesausflüge. Vielen Dank!

Un havre de paix qui sent bon la Provence
Je viens de passer deux semaines délicieuses dans cette petite maison et c'est vraiment à regret que je l'ai quittée tant on s'y sent bien. Confortable, bien équipée, située dans une petite impasse, entourée de vieilles pierres et de végétation, elle offre un cadre idéal pour se reposer de l'agitation du monde. Une jolie terrasse bien exposée invite à la détente. Quel plaisir d'y boire son café du matin au son apaisant du glouglou de la fontaine ! Mylène et son mari, propriétaires des lieux, nous accueillent avec chaleur et gentillesse et ont un réel souci du bien-être de leurs hôtes. Merci à Mylène pour ses belles suggestions de sorties et de découvertes ! La région est magnifique et le village de Peynier, vivant et authentique, est particulièrement bien situé pour des escapades à pied, en voiture ou même en bus (un bon plan à la fois pratique et économique pour rejoindre Aix-en-Provence ou Marseille). En conclusion : une excellente adresse, un endroit attachant et un vrai coup de coeur pour moi !
