Photos and Description of this Vernet les Bains holiday apartment 3 bedrooms; (2 double, 1 twin) 1 bathroom; separate WC sleeps 6 in comfort

A spacious, comfortable apartment in the beautiful small spa town of Vernet les Bains, nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees. This corner, first-floor apartment has its own private entrance and balconies and large terraces on two sides. The south-facing terrace gets the sun all day and provides a wonderful area for eating out or just relaxing in the sun. There is plenty of patio furniture and a built in barbecue for alfresco eating. Inside, the property is well furnished and fully equipped. The apartment is opposite the parks with children's play area, tennis courts and, in the summer, an open-air swimming pool. It is a few minutes from all the amenities of the town. It is wonderfully situated for touring and exploring this unspoiled corner of Catalonia, with easy access to both the French and Spanish sides of the Pyrenees, the Mediterranean coast and the Costa Brava. In a wonderfully relaxing environment surrounded by magnificent scenery you can do as much or as little as you like.

Vernet is set in a beautiful environment in the foothills of the Pyrenees yet is so accessible. The town offers shops, bars, restaurants, two banks (ATMs) and three market days a week in the town square. A maze of winding streets lead up to the church and castle overlooking the town. Exploring locally, or touring the wonderful surrounding area is equally rewarding. Mountains, lakes, vine and fruit-laden valleys, Cathar castles, Romanesque abbeys, Mediterranean beaches, Spain and Andorra await you. Day trips can take in Carcassonne, Barcelona and the Costa Brava and Vernet is within easy reach of excellent ski resorts. There are daily bus services from Vernet, and trains from nearby Villefranche de Conflent to Perpignan and to the Mediterranean coast, including the spectacular ‘Petit Train Jaune’ into the mountains. There is lots of information in the apartment to help you enjoy and make the most of this rich and varied area which is wonderful all year-round.

Additional information about rental rates

Please note that while 2-week bookings are preferred during the summer period, 1- week bookings are taken, but these attract a 20% addition to the weekly rental rate. Midweek to midweek breaks can be accommodated outside high season periods to take advantage of cheaper flights. Please contact me to arrange. Prices are inclusive of all bed linen and towels, other than your beach/swimming towels. For rentals between 1 October and 30 April there is a heating supplement of £40 per week.
