Family stay
Very peaceful property in a good location. It's worth the effort to get down for a swim in the river (although it's not the easiest to climbs down). Excellent and very helpful communication from the owner.

A picturesque village under a medieval castle
We have spent a week in Luzenac. The gite is nice, located on the bank of the Arriege river , just close to the village church. The coutryside is fantastic and there are many possibilities of short trips - to a talc mine, the castle, a spa, historical towns. In the gite there is everything you need. The only unimportant "trouble" is the stairs. Not good for families with little children or older people. The owner speaks French and English but his local representant speaks French ONLY, so it is sometimes difficult to manage everything. The place is close to Andorra (cca 30 km) and to Spanish border. We definitely recommend a visit to Foix, the mine (just up the hill), caves (Lombrive, Niaux, etc.) and local markets. It was our second visit to the area and we will return.

Exceeded Expectations
We spent 10 lovely days at this property and my only complaint would be that they passed too quickly! Christian was co-operative, easy to contact and communicate with, answering any queries quickly. Madam Gady the property manager lives just around the corner and so is available for any problems (there wasn't). We found her friendly and keen to make sure all went smoothly. If you are English you might want to learn a little basic French as she only speaks a little English but this wasn't a problem even with my poor level of French. The situation of the property we found delightful with the sound of the adjacent Ariege river in the background and the scent of the honeysuckle coming in through the open widows. l personaly found this river quite special, there are dippers which we watched feeding their young, wagtails & ducks but beyond that something else which l cannot put into words but which anyone who has read and understood Herman Hesse's 'Sidhartta' will at once recognise. l should also mention the numerous lizards outside the house, fascinating to watch. The property is charmingly rustic, comfortable and exceptionally well equiped, cool in the heat (and l would assume warm in the cold). All in all it exceeded my expectations and if or rather when we revist this beautiful part of the Pyrenees again we would be happy to return here. One word of warning though. When you arrive, park in the church car park until Madam Gady shows you the correct parking place. l didn't and mistakenly drove down the lane to the property almost getting stuck there - it is as stated not suitable for cars so you will need to walk a short distance but this was no problem. Do be aware that there are some extra charges including for bed linen, towels and a cleaning deposit. the Home Away site doesn't make this clear in English. A great holiday so thank you Christian & Madam Gady

Excelente para clientes locales, porque solo hablan frances
Estubimos 5 dias todo estubo dentro de las espectativas.... la limpieza de la casa un poco justa.... y el unico aspecto negativo a corregir fue la comunicacion tanto en la llegada como la salida....puesto que solo hablan frances....intente hablar en español e ingles pero nadie habla otro idioma que no sea frances..... por lo demas todo estaba aceptable

Séjour abominable. Prix élevé pour la qualité du gite
Annonce sans précision d'absence de parking. Voiture garée à 100m et gîte accessible par des escaliers et un chemin en forte pente. Dans le gîte de nombreuses marches dans chaque pièce sur un même niveau. Fort risque de chute.Odeur dégout dans la salle de bain. Gîte à fuir au plus vite.

maison "trop atypique"
arrivés le 06/05/2023 , le soir à 22 h mon Mari est tombé dans l'escaler : oui il y a plusieurs niveaux : escaliers en bois, plusieurs niveaux rapprochés en carrelage, donc le dimanche aux urgences : cote fracturée ! D'autres part : pas de jardin pour un chien , ni cour avec le gite "la marmotte", passage des personnes du 2ème gite, à 15 m un endroit avec table et chaises très sales et à la vue de tous ! et pour garer notre voiture , grande distance en pente, trop loin du gite, :donc impasse "très raide" jusqu'à l'église, ou plus loin, selon . Nous ne louerons plus jamais le gite "la marmotte

Superbe Région
Le gîte a un charme désuet que nous avons personnelement apprécié. Point de vue équipement tout était parfait. La proximité de la rivière et le cadre sont un + indéniable. Pour le parking, il y a une vingtaine de m en montée à parcourir, mais on est à la montagne ;-) Pensez à passer un petit coup de fil pour annoncer votre heure d'arrivée ce sera très apprécié de la dame chargée de vous accueillir à l'arrivée!

Blotti au long de l'Ariège
Cet Appartement située au long du torrent Ariège offre tout le confort, sans aucun excès. Son coin terrasse privatif le long de la rivière offre, en été, un coin merveilleux pour partager l'apéritif ou un repas en famille . Nous y avons séjourné en compagnie de nos petits fils qui comme nous étaient enchantés par le site et la région environnante .

Logement très bien équipé et accueil très chaleureux. Visites et belles balades à proximité.
Nous (2adultes2enfants) sommes très contents d avoir passés deux semaines dans ce gîte. Il est grand, propre, très bien équipé, nous étions comme à la maison !. Il y a plein de belles choses à voir aux alentours. Ce que nous avons beaucoup apprécié aussi c est l accueil chaleureux, la disponibilité, le dévouement de Jeanne afin que tout se passe bien, tout en restant discrète. Nous recommandons donc avec un grand oui ce gite. Vacanciers du 76
