Beautiful, peaceful property
First of all the property is beautiful and tranquil, one could just sit outside and be at peace all day. The pool is wonderful and the house is filled with comfort and character. Most importantly, Steve, his family and his neighbors are amazing. They are so kind and willing to help at any given moment. They let us know places we should go and places we should eat and not one place let us down. They really treated us like family and made our vacation so memorable. I would highly recommend staying here. We look forward to returning.

Great stay
We had a great time in the villa. Steve is the very best and treated us with the greatest of respect and kindness. Our holiday had been interrupted with a vehicle breakdown and Steve made up for us and our six kids to get our holiday back on track. The villa is in a great location for everything.

Lovely family home with fabulous pool
This is a delightful family home nestled in the foothills of the Vallee de Heureuse some 4.5 km south of Sorede in a small, quiet but well established residential community. The house is large, on several levels and can easily accommodate x8 people (though we were only x2). The kitchen is well appointed and there is a large covered terraced area for eating and getting out of the sun! There is also satellite TV and wifi. The pool area is fantastic and is beautifully maintained with plenty of expensive sunbeds and umbrellas. Sorede is blessed with two very good restaurants - reviewed separately on Trip Advisor- and is useful for basic food stuffs. There are two very good supermarche's within 20 mins drive and the vast beaches of Argeles sur Mer are about 30 mins away. The owner - Steve and his family - could not have been more inviting or accommodating and were very helpful in making our stay so enjoyable. The road from Sorede to the property, though tarmacked, has seen better days!

maison charmante et bien équipée
Maison bien équipée - lieu de rêve pour ceux qui aiment le contact avec la nature - la petite rivière en contrebas de la maison accentue le charme de l'endroit. Calme - paisible - le bar à la piscine est le petit plus pour des petits apéros bien sympathiques ... Proche de collioure - Sentiers de randos au départ de la maison... Très belle endroit pour passer un séjour de détente. Steve, le propriètaire, est de plus une personne très agréable ..Bref : EXCELLENT

Belle propriété spacieuse avec piscine malheureusement sans sécurité. Télévision sans chaines Françaises. Route d'accès en très mauvais état. Le reste est parfait !

Magnifique séjour ur
Une maison familiale dont les extérieurs vous charmeront par leur beauté et le calme apaisant qui y règne. La maison est bien équipée et la douche extérieure vous laissera un souvenir éblouissant. Steve est un hôte charmant et attentionné. Comme souvent dans ses propriétés la literie mériterait un petit rafraîchissement mais cela reste tout à fait acceptable. Par contre la chambre dans la tour est très chaude en été, un petit bloc climatisation serait judicieux. Ce ne sont que quelques petits bémols, nous avons passé des vacances formidables.
