Owned by a creative family, and their home for much of the year, this delightful apartment in the Latin Quarter is stylish, fun and packed with character. Set in a typical period building, its high ceilings, wood floors and tall windows make for a classic Parisian stay – topped off with a balcony overlooking the bustling streets below. Just a short walk from Notre Dame, it's an authentic homestay that will immediately make you feel like a local. The big living space is sociable and bright, with statement lighting and wall art, leather sofas and a huge dining table. Open to the rest of the room, the chef of the group will be able to whip up home-cooked meals in the modern kitchen, thanks to the well-stocked cupboards and high-end appliances. Elsewhere in the flat, there's an office with a piano and a guitar for the musically inclined, and a desk if you have to get some work done during your stay. We love the master bedroom with its large en-suite bathroom and quirky little craft room. The apartment is opposite the Cluny Museum and just a minutes walk from the open-air market of Maubert Square (held three times a... week). It takes only fifteen minutes to walk to the Louvre and there are all sorts of places to eat and drink on your doorstep.

About Île de la Cité
Ile de la Cité is one of the two natural islands known as the official epicentre of Paris, where the medieval city was founded. With only 1,000 inhabitants, it's definitely exclusive! The streets are picture perfect, with paved streets and curving walls aplenty. With these film-star looks, you’ll inevitably see a fair amount of tourists during the daytime, though you'll also see plenty of Parisians too: simply crossing the Seine,...
