What a Gem!
Kathy’s property is such a special place. She has done a wonderful job of making it feel like your own home. Plenty of books, great art, fully stocked kitchen. The downstairs is an apartment- with its own bathroom and toilet, kitchenette, and patio. Kathy was a pleasure to work with; she was super communicative and offered helpful guidance/ advice for taking full advantage of the place and the area. The upstairs patio is a lovely place to enjoy your coffee/ evening wine and watch the village. You are a 3min walk away from a bakery, which we thoroughly enjoyed as we had fresh croissants each morning. We feel lucky to have found Kathy’s fantastic apartment and are already thinking about how much we would like to return.
Best. Rental. Ever.
We’ve traveled quite a bit, and stayed in a lot of different rentals. This is the first rental where I will absolutely return, hopefully multiple times. Never in my life have I been to a more exquisite location, with a more perfect apartment. The town, the property, the view, the accommodations? Absolute perfection. It does not get better than this. It really really doesn’t. It was heaven. The owners are so responsive, and went above and beyond with our communications, so that we were all on the same page. The location itself? Feels like it’s straight out of a fairytale. The market is literally a three minute walk. If you’re a slow walker. Parking was easy and so close. You could walk around the entire town for an entire week and never get bored. It’s small. And charming. While we were there, we visited Avignon, Aix-en-Provence, Saint Remy, Arles… It’s central to everything. But out of the way, so you feel like you really are just living the French countryside dream. We drove past endless lavender and sunflower fields. And the apartment? I could live there forever if given the opportunity. Forever. I’m hoping that this wasn’t a once in a lifetime opportunity for us, but if it is? I will cherish it for the rest of my life. Thank you so much Kathy and Charley.

Could not have been better
We could not have had a more perfect experience. The apartment is situated on a beautiful street just a short distance from the town square (where you can park your car all days but Market Day) and all the delicious restaurants. On market day you can park your car a bit further away, but it’s entirely worth it because the market runs down right in front of the apartment! (Keep in mind their home is on the second floor, so you aren’t bothered by it at all).
As for the home itself, it is decorated in a beautiful red and yellow theme that matches the French countryside perfectly. Local art on the wall helps depict how the building looked throughout the town’s history and its transformation. The kitchen was magnificent and one of the most up to date kitchens I have ever seen in Europe. To assist the hidden chef inside of everyone, the kitchen is stocked with a plethora of spices in additional to the fresh herb plants on the terrace for use. After dinner, you can play the many games they provide out on the beautiful terrace while drinking a glass of wine.
Kathy and Charley provided us with a long list of things we could do and even helped to orchestrate a personal experience with a local winery. In addition to that, they provided information on the market day for all the local towns and where in town we could rent bikes (strongly suggest electric ones!). Everyone in Bonnieux was incredibly friendly and when you mentioned you were staying in Kathy and Charley’s apartment, they lit up and even gave us special treatment.
We spent a over 2.5 weeks touring the French countryside and our stay in Bonnieux was by far our favorite. The home, Bonnieux and Provence were just wonderful and we could not thank Kathy and Charley for a better experience.
