A great welcome and great location

mpjbells Macclesfield, UK
Review Submitted: January 30, 2010 Date of Stay: December 2009
We went here as a base for for a weeks skiing - our hosts were incredibly helpful giving us advice on ski lessons, helping us arrange ski hire and lending us some snow chains which we needed on 2 days. The location is great with some good restaurants down in the village and about 30-45 mins from slopes. Accommodation is clean, modern and well equipped and spacious with enough room to comfortably sleep 5 of us (3 in bedroom, two in very large lounge area). All in all highly recommended made all the better such a great welcome.

What are you waiting for ?

Friends who bring ale and pickes Eccles, Greater Manchester
Review Submitted: February 2, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2009
There is no better compliment in the hospitality business than repeat business. It shows you did everything right as a host and venue.

We have now been to Le Parede twice and we are already looking forward to our third holiday there in August 2010.

Your hosts, Astrid & Barrie, are the loveliest couple you could ever meet, affording you privacy and company in equal measures and most importantly, at the right time.

I would describe the accommodation as comfortable, lacking nothing yet don't expect luxury. There's a good reason for this: You will only be spending your sleeping hours indoors. The area is a cyclists "Mecca" with all the famous Pyrenean climbs on the doorstep yet the most challenging climb is the road leading from the town of Bagneres-de-Bigorre up to your mountain retreat at Le Parede.

For families with children, there are numerous attractions within a 1 hour radius by car: Lac Vert with its' waterpark (and well behaved French families - no one shouts at their children !!), mini-golf in Bagneres itself, Donjon des Aigles with their birds of prey (and what a show they put on !) the list goes on.

Instead of me telling you what a fantastic holiday you will have WHEN you get here, contact Astrid and get your reservation in place. What are you waiting for ?

Australians in France

SallyP Melbourne Australia
Review Submitted: February 1, 2010 Date of Stay: May 2009
We spent three weeks with Astrid and Barry in May/June 2009 and had a wonderful holiday. We spent time walking up mountains, some of which we thought we would never get to the top of, and others that were flat and very easy. The best walk was the hardest due to the sheer strain of a 2 hour walk up an incredibly steep slope, I cannot remember the name of the walk but we were rewarded at the top with a huge mountain lake, filling from numerous waterfalls from the melting snow. Chunks of ice were still visable in the freezing water and it was the perfect setting while we ate our lunch and recovered from the climb. Only five other people were at the top with us, probably because it was such a hard walk however it was only classified as 3 shoes which probably means we need to get fitter!.
Astrid and Barry acted as the perfect hosts sharing food and wine on occasions, and supplying us with fresh eggs from their free range chickens and DVD's for the rainy days (Lead Ballon was our favorite).
Would we recommend you stay here .....yes we would encourage you to experience what we experienced particularly if you like peace and quiet. It is out of the village up a small road, which can be tricky when a car comes the other way but you soon learn where to pull off so the other car can pass.
Highly recommended!

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.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway
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.
