About the host
Hosted by Jean-Francois DUCHER
I am a French composer , mixologist and digital artist living in Paris.
A lover of Montpellier, I own a flat there, in the heart of the historical quarter (Ecusson), on a quiet and charming square near the cathedral. I spent the Covid lockdowns in that flat and I enjoyed it very much.
I hope you will like it just as much as I did !
Why they chose this property
L'Ecusson, the historic center of Montpellier, has an indescribable charm, with an exceptional density of historical monuments and lively squares with numerous bars and restaurants. Immediately in front of our windows is the Saint-Pierre cathedral (with its original architecture, its two pillars, its towers and its 12 chapels) and the medical school in a row.
Going up rue Saint-Pierre, the famous Place de la Canourgue where a Relais & Châteaux (l'hôtel Richer de Belleval) has opened, then the promenade du Pérou with its 300-year-old Arc de Triomphe. At the end of the medical school square, it is good to walk in the "Jardin des Plantes" in the shade of trees several hundred years old. Sponsored by King Henry IV in 1593, it is one of the oldest public gardens in France.
What makes this property unique
This property is ideal for staycation and remote working, as well as for a discovery of the historical center of Montpellier. Contrary to most flats in this historical perimeter, this apartment has a lot of sun and unobstructed views of the surroundings (also meaning : better intimacy). Regarding noise : there is just one restaurant on the square and it closes early in the evening .
