Description

 

Cent Cinq welcomes guests all year round for short and long stays. These fully renovated self-catering apartments are in an 18th-century townhouse in Apt, a vibrant market town in the heart of the Luberon.

The Apartments:

Each apartment has a bedroom and bathroom, an open plan kitchen and living area, and sleeps a maximum of three (3) guests. An ensuite bedroom is also available for rental independently or in addition to an apartment. In addition, there is an internal courtyard for the use of all guests and storage for bicycles. The accommodation’s tranquillity is essential to the owners, so they don’t accept pets or children under 14.

Staying in Apt:

Much of Apt’s town centre is pedestrianized during the day, including Cent Cinq’s street. In the evening, the restaurants and caféa are just a short walk away, but not close enough to be heard!

On Saturdays, spend the morning enjoying the excellent market throughout the streets and squares of Apt. If you like people-watching, plan to arrive early for a café table. Explore the market stands with a wide range of fresh, seasonal produce. The Apt market is one of the largest in the area, and where you will find everything, including Mediterranean fish, paella, and North African dishes alongside traditional Provencal fabrics. Stock up on a few ingredients for a meal or two later in the week.

Cent Cinq’s owners, Jen and Chris, are wonderful hosts and always happy to help guests with ideas for sightseeing, avoiding the crowds, and some of their favourite spots for wine tasting. Here is a sample itinerary for a holiday week in Provence. Let yourself imagine arriving on a Friday evening and starting early the next day on a lovely excursion.

Ideal for:
Couples who want to explore the region. Friends who are travelling together.

What their guests say:

“Our stay was so nice we changed our plane tickets so that we could stay longer.”

“Jen and Chris’s place in Apt has everything going for it. Located in the middle of Apt, it is a great base to explore the Vaucluse. You can walk for meals out, shopping and groceries. Very high quality renovation of the apartment and fitted with high level furniture, bed linens and kitchen gear. Their documentation of how their rental unit functions as well as features of the town and surrounding area are the best of any rental in my three months stay in France. They have even developed an app for your phone so you can access information while on the road. Very informative information to help make your stay the best it can be. They have a separate internet site with the same infomation as well as paper documentation at the apartment. Both Chris and Jen are quick to respond to any questions and needs and are kind and interesting folks as well. I highly recommend booking your stay at Cent Cinq in Apt.” (Vance, Nov 22)

“This is one of the best rentals we stayed at. From the design of the place, the attention to details, the kitchen with offers everything that crosses your mind and a lot of others stuff you wouldn’t think you need is an amazing place. Even if we did not meet the hosts, they were super-fast in replying to messages and they were so nice to ship us something we left behind. They even developed a very comprehensive guide which includes a lot of tips on the area and check in/ check out procedures, parking tips, restaurant guide, everything . We will come back for sure, and we will recommend the place to everyone we know. The way Chris and Jen offer accommodation should be an example for everyone in this business.” (Madalina, Jan 23)

“We had a beautiful stay at Cent Cinq. Chris and Jen’s attention to detail is second to none. The apartment is comfortable, clean, centrally located and very well appointed. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back again!” (Alicia, Oct 22)

“Cent-Cinq was fabulous! The apartment was extremely comfortable and accommodating and also beautifully decorated. It’s even more beautiful in person! The kitchen was well equipped for cooking, the bathroom was nicely renovated with a shower and soaking tub, and the bed was very comfy. We enjoyed the many little touches, such as the cold bottle of wine in the fridge, candles with a lighter by the bathtub, and bedside USB outlets. You can see the hosts have spent much time and effort to ensure their guests enjoy their stay and feel at home. The town, Apt, is very charming and is close to many other towns and sites. The first morning we woke up to the delightful Saturday market right outside our window. There was actually a cheese seller in front of the house door! I will recommend the apartment to family and friends and would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Jen and Chris! (Les, July 22)
