A taste of old France high above Paris - sleeps 2/4.  Map

Nestled in the small cobble-stoned streets high on the hill of Montmartre, this 1 bedroom apartment offers a fairytale location. Surrounded by beautiful views and buzzing with an old world atmosphere, it has been attracting artists, poets and writers for centuries and is the France of the movies - indeed the area was recently depicted in the international success "Amélie". The Place du Tertre, the Sacré Couer and the vineyards of Montmartre are all within a few seconds walk away and there are an abundance of restaurants right at your doorstep. The nearest métro is Lamark, a 5 minute walk away.

Situated on the fourth floor (with lift), the apartment sleeps 4 in 1 double bedroom and a fold-out sofa-bed in the living area. It has been decorated in a traditional French style with a mixture of antiques and paintings with wooden floorboards throughout. The nature of the area with its small winding streets and village atmosphere means the apartment remains quiet and calm thought the day.

You enter the apartment into a large hallway that connects all the rooms.

To your right you will find the living area (15ft3 x 10ft6 / 4.65m x 3.20m) which offers uninterrupted views over northern Paris. Here you will find a sofa which folds out into a standard double bed (4ft7 wide), 2 armchairs, a coffee table, and a fold-out dining table that seats 4. The large widows means the room stays bright and airy the whole day.

Across the hall is the bedroom (14ft9 x 10ft3, 4.5m x 3.1m). There is a standard double bed (4ft7 wide), 2 bedside tables and lamps, 2 small antique chairs, a clothes cupboard and a TV. There's also a high-speed broadband internet connection.

The room offers wonderful views over the rooftops to the south of Paris.

The kitchen is located to the left of the entrance and offers all the expected appliances including oven, ceramic hobs, microwave, fridge, freezer, coffee machine, kettle and toaster, (but no dishwasher).

The en-suite bathroom has a large bathtub with a handheld shower, a washbasin and a washing machine. The loo can be found separately in the hallway.

Montmartre is well known for its wealth of traditional French restaurants and bistros and some of the best can be found on the short walk down to Abbesses.


Try the Galette du Moulin on the rue Lepic for a sophisticated atmosphere with modern French cuisine.


Further down the same road you will find the Virage Lepic which offers a more rustic French cuisine, in a true smoky, Parisian atmosphere.
