Great location and warm welcome. We really enjoyed our time in Beaucaire. It's central to many great locations in Southern France, including Avignon, Nimes, Pont du Gard, etc. The provision of a computer/printer was excellent (in addition to the WiFi) and really helped us. The restaurant just down the road was great (recommended, very friendly people, despite our lack of French). We really recommend this location, both the apartment and town.

large clean apt in a building with attractive interiors, completely equipped including telephone, wifi and convenient street parking Two of the bedrooms have large beds with good firm mattresses. Although Beaucaire may not be the most attractive place it more than makes up for for it with its location which is a relatively short round trip drive from many interesting towns and places.

There could be no better place from which to explore the delights of the Bouch-du-Rhone area. You are about 30 minutes from Nimes, Avignon, Arles or St. Remy--or you can be up in the Luberon's or out in the Camargue in an hour. There is something interesting to do in whichever direction you venture. And, if you never go anywhere and just sit on the terrace sipping wine, that's fine too. Loads of great restaurant choices within walking distance and 2 markets every week if you want to cook in. Contact information is plentiful and the on-site supervision is attentive and English speaking.

This apartment was a lovely base for traveling in Provence. It was comfortable, in a great location and offered all the amenities of home. I highly recommend this apartment for basing your travels in southern france...I would definitely stay at "My Beaucaire" again and will recommend to friends & family! Au revoir

"Lots of Room--and Comfort" This is a big apartment. Four adults (two couples) still had room to spare. The kitchen is new--with full sized appliances and Ikea style. The shower was also very up to date. The walls are very thick, with full shutters on all the windows, so it is quiet. The clothes washer does not have a drier function, but we got by with the drying racks. The WiFi worked great. The apartment's computer and printer made it easier to plan our daily trips and keep up with things back home. There are plenty of places to sit in the high-ceiling living room, as well as lights and fans throughout the apartment. Beaucaire is central to many sites in eastern Provence, so driving was easier. The apartment includes secure indoor parking--a big plus in the crowded, narrow streets common in the area. The local managers were very helpful--especially when we needed advice on a medical emergency. There were no cleaning fees or complicated contracts. We felt like we were visiting a friend's place, rather than risking unknown expenses in a complicated contract arrangement we saw at other places we considered.

We (2 couples) stayed at the flat for 3 days in mid May, 2010. We found the flat via the internet and all the comments were positive so we made the reservation. Our arrival time was coordinated by phone with John (the owner's representative) and we met him at the flat. He explained everything to us and answered all our questions about Beaucaire and the area. The flat was clean and spacious. As we were two married couples, having 2 bathrooms was important. The kitchen was fully equipped and we used it for breakfasts and dinners. There were lots of books, maps and brochures (many probably left by previous guests) that were very helpful. The fact that there was a desktop computer, printer and wireless connection made it very convenient to keep in touch with family. Beaucaire is an interesting small town. The flat is in an older building in an old section of town. We had no problems walking from the flat to the market or the river (both a 5 minute walk). The market on Sunday was small but you could get everything. Beaucaire as a town is near most sites in the region and thus is very convenient to use as a base for sightseeing. I would easily recommend the flat to others.

We stayed in the Beaucaire apartment for 1 week in April 2010. We had a very pleasant stay and would certainly recommend this accommodation to other travelers. The apartment was well set up with everything we needed, and we were especially pleased to find the computer with internet access and the English satellite TV channels. The kitchen was very well stocked too. The place was more than big enough for 2 of us, and could easily accommodate 4 people. (6 is possible as there are 3 good size bedrooms but it might feel a bit too crowded after a few days). John and Lisa, the local agents, were very helpful. Beaucaire itself was fairly quiet while we were there, but it is a wonderful base for exploring the region...close to Avignon, Arles, Nimes, Uzes. Don't miss the Cathedrale d'Images at Les Baux.

We spent a week in Beaucaire in early September 2009. There were five in our party, me – the mom – and my two adult children and their spouses. As it was the first time in Provence for all but me, we had many sites to see. What we didn’t see much of was Beaucaire, but for everything else, this city was a very convenient location. The apartment was large, comfortable and very light. Being on the second floor, it was high enough to see over the city walls across the street and even catch a glimpse of the Rhone river. Since we were doing a blog of our trip, we appreciated having the computer for our use. Additionally, the wireless feature in the apartment allowed use of our own the laptop. I appreciated having various guide books available that I could consult in addition to my own. We all enjoyed the art work throughout the several rooms. The kitchen and its equipment were new and easily used We used the clothes washer extensively. The drying racks worked pretty well, since the weather was warm and we could leave the windows open while we were gone. We would have liked a way to have gotten some air flow at night into the bedroom, the window of which opens onto the terrace, and we hope that something will be worked out like a shutter within the main shutter. The apartment was in a residential neighborhood with few shops. It was good to have the secure parking area on the ground level of the building. We got some good take-out meals at the pizza cafe down the street. Also found some boulangeries about a five minute walk away. We had one meal along the canal, but didn’t explore that part of the city. A couple of us walked over to the nearby Rhone and watched some jet ski racing. When we arrived, we bought produce for the week at the Sunday market. We also shopped at the super-marche in Tarascon, eating most of our dinners on our terrace. It was a good experience, and I certainly would return.

This apartment in Beaucaire gives you the best that Provence has to offer with great space and room for everyone! The apartment is decorated with inviting colors and all the amenities one could need. We were there in December (not exactly Provence's high-season), but getting to enjoy the Christmas lights and the local Fetes and street-fairs was amazing. I highly recommend renting this apartment. It was convenient and easy --plenty to do within walking distance and then short drives to all sorts of vineyards, other towns, and even the coast. In the summer, apparently, there's a bull run that passes right beneath this place.

This apartment turned out to be more spacious, comfortable, charming and better equipped than I expected. It was ideal for our family of four adults – and can accommodate more. It is within walking distance of all basic food needs, including delightful food markets (3 times a week) as well beautiful walks along the Rhone and interesting historic sites. Just as important, it is within easy driving distance of all the places we wanted to visit – Nimes, the Pont de Garde, Avignon, Arles, and many more. The owners and their agents are friendly and helpful, and lots of information was provided in the house about places to go and see, restaurants to try – and that’s just what we did. We were very pleased to have computer and internet access and to have a user-friendly kitchen stocked with basic cooking supplies. For guests spending Christmas there, the midnight mass with live animals in the nativity pageant and choir in traditional dress, followed by a festive serving of mulled wine, delicious pastries and dried fruits in the medieval alley leading to the church, is not to be missed. We loved it - even in December without its summer outdoor attractions. Many thanks.

We enjoyed our week in your Beaucaire apartment.John and Lisa were pleasantly efficient and helpful as we settled in and out of Hotel Luxembourg. It is indeed comfortable and well-equipped with kitchen, bathrooms, washer, garage space, computer and plenty of books. J It was also an excellent place to just reside. We enjoyed walking around---- finding the PO, the multiple markets,the fine castle, the special baker, the bottle recycling container, and, of course, the dragon in the square. Every evening we walked along the dike, listening to conversations in French, in Arabic, in other languages as the stars came out. It seemed that we were truly in the France of the medieval days as well as in 2009. Thank you for making an easy introduction to such a fascinating place. Best wishes to John and Lisa and to you both. Sincerely, Ann and Pug

What a wonderful place to stay! We found the apartment in Beaucaire quite spacious and offering all the amenities of home (English-language television, Internet access, modern kitchen and the two bathrooms a major asset!) PLUS a lovely veranda on which we took our leisurely meals while enjoying a pleasant breeze from the Rhone. The town of Beaucaire itself gave us a sense of being in the midst of authentic small town France, surrounded by local people instead of tourists, yet we could reach such traditional tourist destinations as Arles, St. Remy, Avignon and Les Baux surprisingly easily by car. We were delighted to find that the train station in Tarascon just across the bridge (a 15 minute walk) gave us easy access to many locations (such as Marseilles and Avignon) by public transportation as well. A magical experience for us - we do so look forward to visiting again.

We had a fantastic time in Beaucaire...made perfect by staying in your wonderful apartment. Travelling with 2 teenage daughters, we appreciated the extra space of having 3 bedrooms and 2 toilets (and of course the computer). The clean, modern new kitchen was equipped with everything that we needed. We loved the huge terrace and had most of our meals on it. The location was great...we could walk to the outdoor market as well as to the grocery store, post office, tourist information centre etc. We loved the sleepy atmosphere of Beaucaire...it truely did feel like a piece of Heaven!

Just wanted to tell you what a great time we had in Beaucaire and your cheerful, spacious apartment. Traveling with three 16-y.o. girls was heavily weighted towards seeking out markets far and wide -- and their sleeping in until noon whenever possible -- but the location was perfect. Besides Tarascon, we also visited St. Remy, Arles, Les Baux, Pont du Gard, Aix-en-Provence, and Avignon before heading to Paris. I loved the old windows and shutters and the quiet view across the street, the great shower and having two toilets! Our daughter loved that it was close to the water and was so photogenic (she's into photography). The girls especially liked having access to a computer (and, of course, would have liked to have access to the full range of Sky TV...Can't say that I missed it, however.)

What a wonderful apartment! Hotel Luxembourg is a stunning historical building with a beautiful terrace. The apartment is spacious, extremely comfortable and all of the amenities (computer, washing machine, parking area) helped us maximize our time for exploring the sights of the region. We were there for 7 days in May, with near perfect weather, and especially appreciated the genuine, non-touristy aspect of the town with its lively market and beautiful canal. Great vacation and we can't wait to return. Karen and Ted

We spent 7 days just before Easter in the apartement and thought it was great. Beaucaire was quiet but very attractive and medieval, in the process of renovation to reveal some very characterful buildings. Enough bars, shops, restos, and markets to keep us busy, and easy access by bus or train to Arles when we wanted crowds. We arrived by TGV to Avignon and taxied from there, but on the way back went on the dedicated bus from Tarascon, feeling more confident about it. WiFi much used by Facebookers, all other facilities good, and decor pleasant without being fussy.

We really enjoyed staying at Hôtel Luxembourg. The flat is delightful!The weather was a bit mixed (two days of rain, two days beautiful one day mixed etc) so it was especially nice to have a comfortable, roomy, well equipped and warm place to come home to. We found the old town of Beaucaire very interesting and the history fascinating – it was easy to imagine how it looked a few hundred years ago.We rate this flat as 'Highly Recommended'.

Exceeds all expectations. This apartment is Large and Comfortable, very Roomy. High ceilings, good beds, new 21st century kitchen, new bathroom and second toilette/sink. Everything works including computer, etc. Huge windows open on the green open Field of the Fair (Champ du Faire) on the banks of the Rhone. You are in medevial Beaucaire behind a city wall with narrow streets, castle ruins, and all Provence before you. Walk, bike, motor to your hearts content, and come back to your happy lodging, and enjoy your own private balcony terrace to boot. It was warm in winter, and thick walls will help keep it cooler in summer I am sure. I'm a big fan of this large comfortable apartment!

It's our last day in Beaucaire and I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying at your apartment. It has everything an American needs in France, although it's so comfortable I sometimes forget where I am. The rooms are so spacious, the TV is in English, and having a computer so handy made it convenient to stay in touch with friends and relatives. My friend and I LOVED the area, although we didn't realize how many stores and restaurants would be closed this time of year. On the positive side, however, we had very little traffic and parking was a breeze. I plan on returning sometime in the spring/summer so I can experience the color of Provence. Hopefully your apartment will be available at that time. Thank you. Rae-Marie

An excellent apartment. Lots of room for all of our party, which varied from 4 to 6. adults. The terrrace (whilst not entirely private) was a marvellous place to spend the evening. Beaucaire is a lovely place to base yourself for exploring this part of France. We spent 2 weeks here and visited some of the touristy sites (Arles, Nimes, Avignon etc.) We were lucky when we went to Uzes as the bull running was on. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property.

Hello from two jet-lagged but happy occupants of your flat in Beaucaire. I just wanted to thank you for renting us such a lovely place. It was comfortable, spacious, full of light and color even on the (unfortunately) grey days. Beaucaire turned out to be a rather interesting town. We enjoyed walking around both Beaucaire and Tarascon, and found the location to be incredibly convenient for our travels either north or south. Although I have been in France many times, I did not know Provence at all, and now that I have experienced a bit of it, I will absolutely have to come back again (and again). The Forrestals were very helpful and as I said above, the apartment is even nicer than your descriptions and photos showed online. I would certainly be glad to serve as a reference for anyone thinking of renting, and thank you again for allowing us to share your Beaucaire world. Caroll

Very happy with the apartment, which was roomy, comfortable, quiet and well located (if a little tricky to drive in to!). Also very well equipped with plenty of reading material, reference books for the area, and access to the internet. Although not a lot to see in Beaucaire itself, it's a handy base for exploring the area - we had some great visits to Avignon, Arles, Pont du Gard, Chateau de Beaux, etc, etc, which were all very interesting with great scenery. A large Carrefours supermarket was easy to get to on the way back in to Beaucaire after a day's sightseeing, and perfect for stocking up and enjoying great meals back at the apartment - very handy if you have kids and find eating out a challenge. The apartment also catered well for children with high chair and cot. Lisa and John were very friendly and helpful, making the whole experience very enjoyable!

The apartment also catered well for children with high chair and cot. Lisa and John were very friendly and helpful, making the whole experience very enjoyable!

The apartment met all of our expectations. It was comfortable (including the bed), spacious and bright, quiet, clean, and well equipped. Once we found our way, the access was quite convenient and the parking easy. Our usual style is to have lunch while out touring and then have a simple dinner back at the apartment. This pattern worked well on this trip. We did have a nice moules and frites lunch on the canal in Beaucaire and a good restaurant lunch at the La Provencale in Tarascon. Lisa and John were very helpful and quite pleasant to deal with. The apartment was well located for our travels with easy trips to Arles, Nimes, Pont du Gard, Avignon, and St. Remy. Somewhat farther afield, but quite manageable, were Vaison, Orange, Aix, Carpentras, Les Baux, and Aigues-Mortes. Beaucaire and Tarascon were pleasant and interesting towns to explore as were a couple of medieval chapels and the Roman milestones in the local country side. We did most of our food shopping at the Carrefour where we could stop whenever returning to Beaucaire from the west.

hi madaleine and barney We had a fantastic time in Beaucaire. we were amazed at the history of the area and it was such a good base. The brochures in the apartment were very helpful...unfortunately several of the restaurants close by were closed for holidays but the ones we found were great. There is a delightful place just down the road towards the canal that had live entertainment on the Saturday night. The apartment was extremely comfortable and having internet access was good for keeping in touch with home. thank you again and we will certainly recommend it to others. regards tim and val

We had a great 4 nights at the apartment. It was very spacious and comfortable. We loved visiting the bar at the square round the corner before dinner and found the town to be friendly and interesting. The Sunday food market in the square was lovely. Beaucaire was quite different to a lot of places we visited but some of our happiest memories are from this untouristy town. We feel very lucky that we found such a nice place to stay in a really interesting French town. We're sure we will return.

Madeline & Barney, Our short time in Beaucaire was made all the more enjoyable by the comfort and charm of your apartment. We thoroughly enjoyed the terrace, as the weather was perfect. John & Lisa were more than helpful, and very accommodating to our VERY early departure time. Thank you again, Lisa (and Beverley, Susie, Nea & Diane)

Dear Madeleine and Barney, We had a great time in Beaucaire and thank you so much for having us.The apartment was all we hoped for and our breakfasts on the terrace were amazing. Luckily we had good weather, and just walking around Beaucaire and Tarascon and visiting the markets was very enjoyable. To be able to keep up with news via the internet is a real plus too. The location is great and we visited places like Avignon, Arles, Aigues Mortes, Nimes, Pont du gard, Uzes, Les Baux, Mont Ventoux, Gordes, Menerbes and St Remy. We would recommend your apartment to anyone visiting the area. Overall a fantastic, albeit too short, experience. Kind regards Mark

Hi Barney and Madeline Just a short email to say thanks very much for the apartment in Beaucaire. We really appreciated the use of the email as it has been notoriously difficult to find email facilities in the areas we have visited - especially with the long lunches and public holidays every 5 minutes it seems! In retrospect we should have booked 2 weeks as we have run out of time and energy to do all that we had planned but still it's nice to leave something for next time. The apartment has been very comfortable and well-appointed. Thanks again Vivian and Ron

I stayed in the Lehrer's flat for six months over the winter and had a great time. Much more luxurious than living at home!

I lived in the Lehrer's appartment over the winter of 2006 / 2007, and found it just perfect - comfortable, convenient and well-equipped. It won't interest many of the people reading this, but the heating is excellent too!
