Experience the magic of Provence in the beautiful and historic Old City of Avignon!
Beautifully renovated and tastefully decorated apartment in the center of historic Avignon. Situated on a quiet side street just steps from rue Saint-Agricol and rue Joseph Vernet, Avignon’s premier shopping streets full of chic boutiques and excellent restaurants. Just a few more steps brings you to the historic Place de l’Horloge; the Pope’s Palace and Gardens; the Pont Saint-Bénézet (better known as the Pont d’Avignon); the Avignon Opera; several excellent museums; and multiple Michelin-starred restaurants.
Avignon is also the center of an exceptionally rich region full of Roman monuments such as the Pont du Gard and the Coliseum of Nimes; museums featuring the many artists who worked in Provence, such as Paul Cezanne, Vincent Van Gogh and Claude Monet; an extraordinary number of historic and beautiful churches; legendary "perched" villages such as Gordes, Roussillon and Les Baux-de-Provence; literally thousands of vineyards from Cotes du Rhone to Chateauneuf-du-Pape; the delicious Provençale cuisine; and wonderful hiking and biking trails.
Pairing convenience with beauty and adventure, Avignon is also a main transportation hub. Avignon Centre, the local train station, is 10 minutes away by foot. A shuttle train from Avignon Centre takes just 6 minutes to connect to the Avignon TGV station, with high-speed trains that whisk you away to Paris, Lyon, Nice, Barcelona and many other destinations. In case you are traveling by car, Avignon is conveniently located at the intersection of the A7 and A9 autoroutes.
We love our home in Avignon, and look forward to hosting others who are excited to experience this spectacular part of the world!
