Dear Pigalle

Niched within a beautiful Art Deco block in a private alley lies this four bedroom home in South Pigalle. The contemporary interior and charming children's room make this home ideally suited to a group travelling with tiny tots and there's even parking space - a rarity in Paris. A special mention goes to the spacious dining room and kitchen island perfect for evening apéritifs and culinary delights. Lovers of more minimalist living might prefer to look elsewhere as this home certainly has a lived-in feel to it.

Home truths:
* Two of the beds are small doubles, so this home may be a squeeze for only adults

* Your host asks for special attention to avoid any damage to the parquet flooring - no stilettos in the house please!

* This is a lived-in private residence and two of the bedrooms are very clearly set up and decorated for kids

* The two bathrooms are ensuite so the other guests will have to access these via the bedrooms. There are however two separate toilet rooms with sinks

* There is no air-conditioning in this home
