Lourdes 150th Anniversary starts 8th December 2007

In 1858, in a cave situated below the town of Lourdes in the south of France, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared, in person, on eighteen occasions to Bernadette Soubirous, a very poor 14-year-old girl from Lourdes. The first apparition took place on 11th February and the last took place on 16th July. In 2008, Lourdes will celebrate the 150th Anniversary of the Apparitions.

Other Activities Ski 30 mins. Water Park, zoo, caves, aquarium within 30 min drive

5/5

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.
