Guests enjoy our 120 peaceful acres of meadows, woodlands, breathtaking scenery, pure clean air, fresh spring water & wonderful climate. The main pool 10m x 5m has a fabulous position with panoramic views & in full sun from dawn to dusk. It is fenced, gated & alarmed to French standards.

The cottage is gorgeous, the hospitality is great the views are beyond words, the FOOD IS AMAZING, and the animals are so SWEET! All in all a very memorable stay. Thanks!
Lynne, Mark, Louse & Ken English, Norwich. -

Everything you need & nothing you don’t need! And spotlessly clean.
Mandy Nettlemill & family. -

We came exhausted & left renewed….
Wonderful food & company at the “Cherry Time” dinner (banquet). Thank you all for your kindness, hospitality & warmth of welcome.
Adrian & Helen Thorp. -

Ideal spot for group visits, so much to share with friends. We shall return.
Gillian & Jack Penrose, Somerset. -

The main attraction was the animals (better than the peace, quiet & wonderful views etc.) They made it for the kids (8, 8, and 5). Thanks again for letting them feed & help generally. Hope you have as much fun, future visitors. We’ll be back.
Nicki, Steve, Philippa, Alex & Guy. -

Our 5th. year & as wonderful as ever.

Total Tranquility

Pauline & Bill West Sussex
Review Submitted: August 25, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
If you like to stay in the hub of the action, with nightclubs,pubs and every amenity on your doorsep then don't stay here! If on the other hand you are looking for a holiday location where you can relax in the most beautiful surroundings, away from the rush and pressures of everyday life then you've just found your ideal location. When we arrived we thought that the view from our gite was fantastic, but the view from the pool is absolutely unbelievable!
We stayed in the smallest gite, for 2/3 people. It was spotlessly clean,and was provided with everything that we needed. Children, (and adults!), will love all of the free roaming animals, especially Rosey the dog.
Loads of places to see locally, or about 60 minutes drive to the beautifull beaches at Argeles.
Don't miss Jane's goumet evening! I must admit I was fearing it was going to be like the 'Goumet Evening' on Fawlty Towers! Not a bit of it, Jane, Felix and George cooked up the most fabulous meal.
If you are looking for a holiday location where you can relax in beautiful, peaceful surroundings then this is the place for you!

We are returning for the third time over a period of seven years. Idyllic location and homely atmosphere make this a fantastic place to be for people of all ages. Jane Felix and family make you very welcome and provide excellent organic meals if required. They are a mind of useful information on good resturants and places to visit, although you do not have to leave Le Paloume to have a relaxing day. In a nutshell
Chillout factor 10/10
Natural beauty 10/10
A perfect location to regenerate your mind body and soul.

Review Submitted: June 2, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Our family returned for the sixth time this easter. We have now been alone (pre-children), with in-laws, with one child and now two. We experience instant relaxation when we come here. The setting and view is like paradise. It is peaceful, natural and fun. The children really appreciate the sense of space and freedom - the opposite of what they have in London. They love Jane and the animals and love feeding the chickens and ducks. The dogs follow loyally if you go off on walks which they find thrilling. Jane has lots of recommendations for local restaurants but equally buying local produce and cooking at the farm is a joy. Whenever we leave we never feel it will be the last time - this place has such a magnetic attraction.

Fabulous

Bev and Warren Brighton
Review Submitted: May 21, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2007
Warren and I stayed with Jane, Felix and George last summer and had an absolutely wonderful time.
With their free-roaming chickens, geese, dogs, cats, and Jane bustling about in her apron, they are real-life Larkins (from The Darling Buds of May)
Once a week, Jane and George cook up a fabulous three-course dinner, putting their own spin on local dishes. We joined them for succulent Catalan meatballs and divine brioche ‘bombs’ filled with warm chocolate and cherries, while dry-witted Felix entertained us with hilarious stories of farm life, demonstrated the Sardana, the local Catalan dance, and taught us how to drink the traditional Catalan wine, Garnatxa.
It's a great location too. From the gites, we explored the Medieval town of Prats de Mollo and took the beautiful drive across the Pyrenees into Spain to the Dali Museum at La Figueres (just 45 minutes) and then on to Girona (the same again).
We would highly recommend a stay here.
