Renaissance Renaissance

Holiday Rental Description

Live out your history-rich dreams in this charming apartment. Located within a 16th-century private mansion in the style of the first Renaissance of Toulouse, this apartment is a historical monument. Centrally located in Saint-Etienne, this apartment is an elegant city base with a storied past.

The pared-back design is complimented by characterful elements, like the beamed ceilings, period furnishings and artworks that are a joy to relax amongst after a day exploring Place du Capitole, a short walk away. Grab a croissant from your local boulangerie and sip your morning coffee at the sleek 70s-style table, then gather on the plump leather sofa to plan the day.

Amble your way around Saint-Cyprien, where you’ll find contemporary galleries, bars floating on the Garonne, local delicatessens, vintage boutiques, undercover food markets, and riverside hangout spots.

Wind down in the evening at one of the city’s authentic restaurants for a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon and cassoulet Toulousain. As night falls, wander through the buzzy streets back to your historic hideout for a restful night’s sleep in the elegant master suite.
