This is the lower apartment and sleeps 2/4 . This is a beautiful studio apartment for 2/4 people with large outside terrace. There are stunning lake views and it's positioned in the centre of the village with all shops and restaurants only a couple of minutes walk away. The lake is beautiful for swimming and relaxing. It's only 5 minutes walk or a minute in the car away. There are beaches near the village with snack bars and boat hire. Or, if you prefer privacy, the lake is surrounded by secluded beaches which you can walk, drive or better still go by boat to. Patio doors open into an open plan living room with a well equiped kitchen on one side and large sofa on the other (which converts into a large double bed). At the rear of the apartment is a mezzanine level with a beautiful antique French Demi Corbeille bed and antique French bedside cabinets. There are built in wardrobes and cupboards providing plenty of storage. Steps lead down under the mezzanine to a store area and generous size modern shower room. Underneath the terrace is a large storeroom where there is a washing machine (shared with apartment one) and also space to store large items such as bikes etc. St Croix Du Verdon is in the unspoilt heart of Provence which is characterised by deep valleys and snow capped mountains to the north and gentle undulating fields of lavender, vines and sunflowers in the south and west. It is where the Haut Var meets the Alpes-d'Haute Provence and is known as 'Green Provence'. This area offers a very different pace of life to the more bustling south coast and it is characterised by forested mountains, vineyards, lavender fields and olive groves between beautiful ancient hilltop villages and small towns. Nearby towns and villages such as Riez, Aups, and Forcalquier still thrive on their traditional industries of making honey, cheese, cultivating truffles and pressing olive oil. Riez, only 10 min from St Croix has a wonderful street market on Wednesdays and Saturdays, two supermarkets and many lovely cafes, shops and restaurants. The area is probably most famous for the 'Gorges du Verdon', one of Europe's biggest canyons. The gorge itself is at the head of the Lac and makes for a multitude of outdoor activities. There are awe inspiring roads, cycle routes and walks all around. For the more adventurous there is climbing and rafting. The Verdon river which formed the gorge runs into the Lac (Ste Croix) and then downstream there are further gorges and additional Lacs (Quinson, and Esparron) for further exploration. Car essential to visit other places as very limited public transport ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen -

The water is truly as turquoise as in this photo, magnificent. I'd love to share some tips if I had any but sadly I didn't spend much time in this area. However, Moustiers-Sainte-Marie is a stunning small village close to Verdon and is well worth a visit after a day exploring, swimming or climbing. #canyon #water #river #france #bucketlist](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6139599/53498c1a-b688-4770-b87e-cf99fa82deab.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Lac de Sainte Croix 3 min walk \- 0.3 km - ![486138832](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6361356/14b8476d-903b-4fca-9de3-be8800f2eeb4.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Gorges du Verdon 25 min drive \- 22.7 km - ![Lavender fields near to Ferrassieres in the Drome.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248635796023041/3d4dc641-1695-4bfb-90ec-7ee009c4a348.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Lavender Fields 42 min drive \- 33.6 km - Verdon 11 min drive \- 5.3 km - Historic Moustiers Sainte Marie 16 min drive \- 16.5 km ### Getting around - Mézel/Châteauredon Station 37 min drive ### Restaurants - Le Central 9 min drive - Mamacita 2 min walk - Le Mille Pâtes 28 min drive - La cote lac 28 min drive - Nauti-Snack 6 min walk ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Lou Marcelou - Apartment Two pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at Lou Marcelou - Apartment Two? ### What time is check-out at Lou Marcelou - Apartment Two? ### Where is Lou Marcelou - Apartment Two located? ## Have a question?

Allerdings sehr hellhörig (wenn jemand in der Wohnung darüber wohnt) und das Restaurant gegenüber hat eine laute Lüftung. Die Parkplätze sind sehr steil, ist man als Norddeutscher nicht gewohnt.

Oct 30, 2018 #### Schönes Apartment in einem wunderschönen Dorf. Das Apartment ist sehr schön, der Ausblick von Apartment 1 ist der Wahnsinn. Leider ist das Dorf ausserhalb der Saison so gut wie Ausgestorben. Das Apartment hat kein Fernseher was leider echt gefehlt hat, da man nicht mal im Dorf Abends was trinken gehen konnte, geschweige denn essen. Das Bett im Apartment besteht aus einer Federkernmatratze, die bei mir leider für unglaubliche Rücken und Brustschmerzen führte. Mit Fernsehen neuer Matratze würde ich IN DER SAISON auf jedenfall wieder kommen. W LAN ist vorhanden, jedoch sehr schlechter Empfang. Das Ambiente des Apartments ist sehr schön. Teppich und Sofa leider ziemlich verschmutzt. Es war trotzdem ein sehr schöber Urlaub, der See ist einzigartig. Ich kenne den See und die Umgebung sehr gut, da wir alle 2 Jahre zum angeln dort sind. Wunderschöne versteckte Buchten und tolle Wanderwege. ##### Jennifer Z. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Jorg B.
