Our stay in Maison Canigou Sorede

Alan and Linda Ireland
Review Submitted: May 24, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
We satyed in this lovely french village house in May. The location of the property coudn't have been better. It was within walking distance to the square and shops.
The location was in a quiet area of the village and any locals who passed by were more than pleasent.
We had everything we needed within the house and the kitchen was exceptionally well equipped. The owners really had thought of everything.
The surrounding area did not dissapoint either. Colliure was the highlight and we visited here on more than one occasion.
Caroline is a real lady and went out of her way to make our stay most enjoyable. We will defineately stay here again and will be bringing friends the next time.
Owner's Response: Thank you, we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Clean comfortable apartment with a lovely private balcony. Ideal for two. Very well equipped, all essential items available. Village quiet and peaceful. Short distance to local beaches and city. Wonderful rock pools up in the mountains also only a short distance away. Recommended. Mike and Orna.
Owner's Response: The rockools are really special. There is so much to explore in the area.

Welcoming Village House

Kit and Ann Quarley, Hampshire UK
Review Submitted: April 24, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
We stayed in Maison Canigou, which is the house fronting the village street. It was spotlessly clean and well-furnished with everything we needed, including a cupboard full of games which kept our grand-daughter amused. The kitchen has everything, including dishwasher, cooker hood and a very swish ceramic hob plus oven.
If you want to eat out, there are three good restaurants within easy walking distance. As the house is in the heart of the village, there is a choice of two boulangeries for the breakfast croissants within three minutes walk.
The road outside the house is very quiet, with little traffic, and passers-by always said hello and would stop to chat if you encouraged them with some school French.
The owners, James and Caroline, could not have been more welcoming and although we thought we knew the area already, they gave us some good ideas for new things to do.
Lastly, this was great value for money and we would certainly stay there again.
Owner's Response: Thank you very much. It is so lovely to welcome our guests back for a second time.Guests who leave our place so clean & tidy & are so pleasurable to deal with, make it a joy for us to rent out.

Best holiday yet!

Review Submitted: March 18, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2007
Caroline and James helped to make our holiday in the beautiful Pyrenees-Orientales the best holiday we have ever had. The villa was immaculate and well stocked.They were very knowledgable about the area,including restaurants,activities,seasonal events etc.We felt very welcome and at home as soon as we were greeted.at the door.I would definately recommend this property to my many friends and relatives in the U.S.A. We also plan to return to Gites Sorede and to our welcoming hosts as soon as we can!
Owner's Response: Thank you very much for those comments.
We are having more & more people from the U.S.A. & Canada which is interesting. Our area has such a different lifestyle to these countries that it is a real eye opener for visitors from these parts.
Here there is always time to relax & stop for a chat etc. Nothing is more important than enjoying life!

A very pleasant holiday in Sorede

Caricard Madrid
Review Submitted: March 12, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2007
A very comfortable house in a charming village. The surrounding area is beautiful and offers lovely mountain views and the nearby sea. Many activities available including visits to towns such as Collioure. The owners, James and Caroline, are extremely friendly and helpful. Most definitely a place I hope to re-visit and would strongly recommend it to anyone.
Owner's Response: We understand that holidays are precious times, so we do our best to make sure our guests enjoy their stay & are comfortable. We are there to help should anyone need it, Living only 10 minutes walk away from the gites helps.

The area is very special so one can enjoy a whole variety of different scenery & activities & return home refreshed & relaxed.
