2 weeks of bliss

The Ridett Family Eccles, Lancashire, England
Review Submitted: August 12, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
The gite is fabulously accommodated and you WILL not get better value for money. Top that off with the incredibly friendly & informative hosts, Astrid & Barrie, and it's a guaranteed cracking holiday.

The location is great, up a mountain side where the the gentle breeze will cool you down while you sit in the shade of covering foliage on the patio, preferably with a cold drink.

For the sportingly minded, you have all the famous Pyrenean Tour de France climbs at your doorstep and if you're a golfer, well, you couldn't be better served than with Astrid & Barrie as they are keen/gifted (delete as appropriate, Astrid & Barrie) golfers themselves and can recommend courses nearby.
Owner's Response: Its so good when people enjoy themselves enough here to say such nice things and to take the time to say so.
We have been very lucky to have received a lot of positive feedback from our guests and will continue to strive for excellence in providing good accomodation and service - in a friendly atmosphere.

Spectacular location - lovely accomodation!

Peter, Tash & Hugo Melbourne, Australia
Review Submitted: August 12, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
The location is spectacular, so peaceful and quiet. The accomodation is lovely and clean - but what really made our stay so great was the hospitality shown by Barrie & Astrid. They were so generous with their time and local knowledge - thank you. We will be recommending the gite to all our friends.

Skiing @ Bareges/La Mongie - staying at Le Parede

John Stone Palma, Majorca
Review Submitted: December 27, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
The skiing at Bareges/La Mongie is great - excellent resort - an easy 30 minute drive from Le Parede. Staying at Le Parede you have the best of both worlds. We skied all day and had Bagneres de Bigorre (5 mins from Le Parede) to visit the bars & restaurants and the excellent Spa (only 15 euros a visit). The gites are fab - so warm and cosy.......will be back next year!
Owner's Response: We went skiing with John and his girlfriend the first time to show them around - they were very impressed with the variety of skiing available.
They were pleased they stayed away from the resort - its very quiet and peaceful here - and they just relaxed and went walking & sightseeing a couple of the days.
Thank you John and Kimberley for your kind words.

These gites surely set the new standard! Fabulous location with lovely people - looking forward to our next visit!

09/04/2007 - Rohan, Theresa & Avi, Banstead, UK.
We have spent a fantastic/lovely time - its a quiet place and you have everything in one place. Its very close to Lourdes, so this is an ideal place for us. Also many thanks to Astrid & Barrie for their hospitality. Lovely.

23/08/2007 - Carol & David Say, Broad stairs, Kent, UK.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful place with our family. We enjoyed the golf and the walking. Scenery is fantastic - you deserve success in your new venture.

09/2007 - Andrea & Trevor Trett, Lyminge, Kent, UK.
Accommodation and location......brilliant. Walkers are in their element - keen cyclists can challenge themselves on the climbs their Tour de France heroes have done. Col de Tourmalet is only 18km from Le Parede. Great holiday.....we will be back!
