La Bastide Tara

Our hosts were so friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious, including homemade yoghurt, jam and a new kind of cake each day. Parking was safe and locked at night. The property is very quiet, perfect for getting a great night's sleep.

Wonderful B&B with great host

This is an elegant country inn just 11 minutes from the Aix en Provence TGV train station which is actually outside the city area of Aix. It was such a convenient place for us to stay after a long day on the train from Barcelona and again the night before an early train leaving Provence. Our room was immaculately clean and spacious. The rooms are on the first floor so we had to carry bags up one flight of stairs. There was a king size be and also a twin bed in the room, along with a toilet room and a shower room with a vanity. We enjoyed a breakfast prepared by our host of homemade yogurts, breads, pastry, and jams. There was also a goat cheese spread, bananas and apples, orange juice and freshly made coffee. Our host was kind and welcoming. She also helped us with suggestions about what to see in the area, restaurants, and grocery shopping. The home and grounds are gorgeous including a terrace and large swimming pool (which we didn’t use as it was only springtime weather.) The only sounds we heard were birds when woke us gently at daybreak. It was a wise choice we made when we decided to stay at Bastide Tara!

What a lovely cottage in St. Remy!! We found our apartment clean, comfortable, and well-located. We felt like locals. The kitchen is well-furnished so we cooked a dinner; 2 fabulous supermarkets are in St.Remy. The lovely enclosed garden is delightful and always visible from the LR/kitchen making the living area light and bright. There is a washing machine. Parking is immediately in front of the front door so accessibility is so easy. Hosts live next door. They gave us complete privacy but were readily available if needed. Nothing is lacking in this darling residence. We would return without hesitation!

The property is lovely and the hosts are very helpful!
