About this house rental
Situated in a small lane just off the Round Pont d'arenes, Le Jardin Secret is literally a secret garden and house hidden in the winding small lanes of Arles. An unprepossessing wooden door opens into a house full of sunlight from the small courtyard garden at the heart of the house.
The hallway leads to a small conservatory, kitchen with domed stone ceiling and sitting room across the courtyard. Although there are two bedrooms we only let the main bedroom with ensuite bathroom/shower. (The second bedroom is available for long term stays and has a small shower en suite but a downstairs toilet),
Adjacent to the main bedroom, small bureau and a veranda overlook the garden. The kitchen is well equipped with a gas range, electric oven, microwave, two fridges and dishwasher. There are stairs into the basement which has been converted into an overflow for the kitchen with a butler sink and stone worktops for food preparation, a washing machine and a freezer space. The house has internet, television gas heating and hot water.
Across the courtyard is a cosy sitting room with sofas and TV.
The bedroom, kitchen and basement are ancient and made of stone with arched ceilings (which may flake dust due to their age). The sitting room and second bedroom are only about 300 years old and a different style - mainly constructed of wood. the hallway and upstairs bathroom form a third age of construction and probably were formed by infilling the alley way to the other two parts of the house - leaving a courtyard at the heart of the house.
Please note however that the stairs are made of stone and have become uneven with age, also both sets of stairs are steeper than modern staircases.
