The apartment is like an eagle’s eyrie, up high looking out over the rooftops. The approach to it may be challenging for some (a small lift followed by a steep flight of stairs) but it’s worth the journey. It’s a cosy nest. And for those who like to cook, there is a good range of saucepans and other implements, as well as useful basic ingredients, kettle, coffee makers and toaster. One of the highlights of the position is the nearby beautiful Parc de la Tête d’Or, a great space to take some time out amongst the greenery. And for coeliacs, a bonus is the cake shop Les Gasteliers, just three short blocks away along Rue de Sèze, where you can sample excellent gluten-free versions of many famous French pastries and cakes.
