"Thank you again for making it such an amazing trip. It was so much more than a cooking course - it was a sensory experience of note, with a cultural and history tour included - so much more than what I bargained for."

Bed and Breakfast
The Bed and Breakfast is open for the summer season from July through September. It is open for month to month rentals from October through May.
Come visit Arles and make our home your home-base in Provence.
In our lovingly renovated Bed and Breakfast we have five individually decorated and spacious rooms.
Upon entering our home you'll see a blend of the ancient and the new: modern
plumbing and air conditioning, fully renovated 10th century walls, and beamed ceilings from the Renaissance...
We've sought out hand-stitched quilts,
comfortable easy chairs, writing tables, plush towels and more.
And as a devotee of good novels, mysteries and more, I've put a lending library in each room-- take one, leave one, as you choose.
I'm sure you'll find something to your taste, and even in your language...
We are located right in the center of the city
of Arles, in the heart of Provence and in the crook of the Rhône River, just off the Place Voltaire, below the 2000 year old Roman Arena.
Easy to find, there is plentiful parking nearby, and for those of you who come by train, we are just a 5 minute walk from the Arles' train station --
So you don't need a car to find us. Note that we've put directions to our home on our web site and you can print
them out at home and bring them with you.
Two of our rooms look onto an inner courtyard, two look out onto a small street, and our last is on the top of the house, with views in all four directions.
The rooms are 85E the first night for a couple with breakfast. 140E for two nights, and 70E for each additional night. 15E per additional person in the room, children under 12 are 10E.
The room with the mezzanine is perfect for 2 couples, or a family, or simply people who appreciate space and tall ceilings. It has a large bed below, and two twin beds above.
The blue room has two twin beds that can be fit together The blue room has a king, and an antique wrought iron bed that serves as either
a couch, or a child's (or small person's) bed. It features an antique bathtub and a multi-jet shower.
The green room, colored in tones from the sea, sand and foam, can be a comfortable double or triple. It has two twin beds which fit together to form a king size bed, and a third smaller bed. This room features a marvelous multi-jet shower, but no bath-tub.
The yellow room is our most luminous and features a both a large bed and a smaller bed,
