Vielle-Chapelle holiday lettings

We choose our holiday around this beautiful house as it ticked all of the boxes. Holidaying as two families we found the house to be perfect with the right number of bedrooms to bathrooms, a lovely outside eating area and the fabulous pool. The house is a typical French style with lovely features. With views of the national park from your bedroom window we felt as though it was outside of Marseille. Initially I was a little concerned about holidaying in Marseille for security and safety purposes but we had no trouble at all. It’s just a case of being sensible. Charlotte was fantastic, very helpful and brilliant at English. Would certainly return.

This spacious property was ideal for our adult family with plenty of home comforts. What first attracted me from the description/photos was the mix of quality modern furniture and fittings with the character of vintage pieces - giving a sense of quality above the norm. Actually, the photos do not serve justice to this charming apartment. The balcony is a decent size and serves as a bonus room. Only a 10 minute walk to the beach plus a very efficient No. 44 bus service is a 20 minute ride from the Metro/Melodrome. Definitely one for a return visit.

This apartment has everything you need as a family. The electric blinds, aircon and washing machine fantastic extras. The location is a couple of minute walk to the beaches with a little shop on your road and restaurants and bars round the corner. The parking space is small however so much safer than finding parking on the road. We used the little ferry from point rouge into the old port marseille at only 5 euro per adult which was a great way to get into central marseille. I would recommend this apartment 100% it was close to everything but far enough away from the busy main street so relaxing in the evening. If we holiday here again i will be asking Serge if his apartment is free for sure.

This location is extraordinary. The home has an open, airy layout, with comfortable rooms, beds and both beautifully spacious lounge and kitchen. The crown jewel of the property is the outside garden and large pool area, which we never wanted to leave. Our hosts were incredibly helpful, generous and informative and provided one of the best holiday homes we've ever stayed in. An absolute joy. We definitely plan to return again. It's magnificent!

My family and I have just spent a very happy two weeks in this beautiful house. It is located in a perfect and peaceful setting in Marseilles. The garden is very quiet and private with a lovely pool. It catches the sun for most of the day. The property is 1/3 of a gorgeous house built about 1840 and modernised 12 years ago. The rooms are big and airy but the whole property benefits from effective central air-conditioning. There is off road parking behind secure electric gates. The hosts were kind and friendly. They met us at the property but afterwards only dropped by quickly to maintain the pool. They responded very quickly to messages. We also bumped into the neighbours a couple of times and they were also very welcoming. The whole place just had a great atmosphere. Once you step out of the property you are in the middle of the neighbourhood of Mazargues. Within 2 minutes walk there are 4 bakeries for fresh bread and croissants, several restaurants and 2 supermarkets. You are 20 minutes drive from Cassis and an hour from Aix en Provence. We hired a boat on 2 days and visited the Calanques which were busy but great for swimming and snorkelling. In the opposite direction you are 30 minutes bike ride from central Marseilles. You can also drive or catch a bus. There is a weekly market in the near-by Prado district which had a good selection of food and drink Thank you Aymeric et Virginie
