Inside the apartment
(56 sqm including balcony-terrace and loggia)

Living room - Two comfy easy chairs look across the room, over the terrace, above the treetops and out to sea. There is a large, top of the range, sofabed that easily converts into a large, comfortable bed with a proper mattress – and feels like a real bed! A round table and elegant chairs make a romantic dining area. There is a large walnut sideboard full of crockery, glassware and a selection of games and DVDs. An LCD flat screen TV sits on a dark wood cabinet which houses the CD player. Even in deepest winter it is pleasant to lunch with the French doors open, looking out to sea.

Kitchen - A well equipped, practical kitchen with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, coffee maker, kettle, toaster and general kitchenware and utensils. There is a small table and stools for feeding children, breakfast or quick snacks. Ample storage space makes it easy to pack away the groceries. There is a washing machine in the loggia, together with small ironing board and iron.

Bedroom - French windows open out onto the balcony-terrace. Savour the views from the king size bed. (This bed can be converted into two large singles). Other features include a built-in wardrobe, a bedside table, a large oak chest of drawers and two chairs.

Bathroom - There is a large bath with hand held shower, a towel heater and plenty of storage space. The wc is separate.

Balcony-terrace - This looks out over the treetops to the church, castle and sea. Two deckchairs and an occasional table make it an ideal spot to soak up the sun. There is also an awning which can be rolled out during the heat of the day.

Message from the owner - "I recently fell in love with Cassis whilst on a rock climbing trip. Cassis is a gem; it is a classic, old, Mediterranean fishing village steeped in history and packed with wonderful restaurants and shops. The port and promenade are an eclectic mix of boats, yachts, bars, cafes and restaurants.

Spectacular hidden coves (les Calanques) are just a boat-ride away. The colourful market comes to the village square twice a week. The scene is just as you imagine ..... olives, cheeses, honey, fruit and vegetables together with that essential bustle of people.

Moreover Cassis is one of the truly unspoilt parts of the Cote d’Azur. Thanks to the national park, medieval castle and the famous vineyards, property developers have been kept out and Cassis has retained its 16th and 18th century architecture.

Victor Parsons is a truly charming and helpful gentleman who will meet you and look after you during your stay in Cassis. I hope I have drawn you a full and accurate picture of what Cassis and the apartment have to offer.
