Week-end au gîte les tournesols

Week-end familial enfin de tous se retrouver. Gite agréable et fonctionnel. Sortie spacieuse avec jeux pour enfants et piscine ( malheureusement beaucoup de vent et seuls les enfants en ont profité) et possibilité de repas en terrasse. Confiture, fruits, tomates et concombre nous attendaient à notre arrivée. Nous avons passé un séjour bien agréable .

Gîte fonctionnel, bien équipé

Nous avons passé un week-end en famille agréable dans ce gîte bien adapté pour 9 personnes. Seul bémol, nous avons eu un peu froid mais le climat n'était pas favorable puisque nous avons eu de la neige. Difficile de chauffer de grands volumes, il y un petit poêle à bois d'appoint dans la grande pièce, Jean-Marc nous a vendu un panier de bois pour passer notre première soirée ! Nous reviendrons avec plaisir aux beaux jours !

Agréable séjour dans le gite de CLaire

Nous avons 10 jours formidable dans ce gîte. Nous sommes retrouvés en Famille, les hôtes nous ont réservés un accueil très chaleureux. Dans logement nous attendait une corbeille de fruit et légumes de leur potager, les conseils de Claire sur les visites à faire et surtout sur les bons endroits pour manger un cassoulet traditionnel. Le gîte est très confortable, nous avons pu profiter de la piscine, du BBQ et des différents équipements mis à disposition pour les enfants (balançoire, frisbee, ping pong, Badmington). Nous avons passé un très bon séjour, à Refaire.

Perfektes Wochenende mit Freunden

Claire's Unterkunft ist perfekt, wenn man einen ruhigen Aufenthalt auf dem Land verbringen möchte. Die Unterkunft ist sauber, der Außenbereich weitläufig und traumhaft für Kinder (Schaukeln, Trampolin, Sandkasten, Fußball, Tischtennisplatte, etc.). Es war viel zu kalt um den Pool zu benutzen, dafür haben wir jedoch ausgiebig die Sauna benutzt :-) Wir kommen gerne im Sommer wieder, wenn es schöneres Wetter ist.

Location haut de gamme

Amabilité et gentillesse des propriétaires, un logement spacieux, dans un état neuf décoré avec goût, très bien équipé "comme à la maison" et très calme. En extérieur, outre la piscine, des jeux pour enfants: bac à sable, balançoire prouvent que les propriétaires ont à coeur de satisfaire le séjour de leurs hôtes. Location de grande qualité que je recommande aux personnes désireuses de trouver le calme et le confort pour leurs vacances.

Un somptueux séjour !

Nous avons passé une semaine formidable dans ce gîte. Autant le gîte en lui même que les installations (piscine, badminton, tennis de table, trampoline, vélos,...), tout était réuni pour passer une excellente semaine. Encore merci à Claire et Jean-Marc pour leur accueil, leur disponibilité et leurs conseils (Carcassonne, Mirepoix, balades en vélos,...). Nous n'excluons pas la possibilité de revenir !

Lovely gite and great hosts!

Thank you for a lovely week En Rouger. The gite Le Tournesol, was well equipped and big enough for our family of 5. The pool, table tennis, hammock and swing seat were popular with our children (14,13 and 9) and our hosts we're lovely and organised a wine tasting evening, a stargazing evening and a visit to a local restaurant with other guests. There is plenty to see around the area and Carcassonne and Narbonne plage are within easy reach. We also used the bikes to cycle along the Canal du Midi. Very enjoyable thank you.

Nice place, nice people, wonderful holidays

We were two couples with 3 little girls and we stayed at the biggest house in "En Rouger". The house was very clean, was comfortable for the adults and also for the kids. Claire & Jean-Marc were so kind and helped us with a restaurant reservation, explaining us which were the most beautiful places to visit, etc. We recommend this house because we have a wonderful time in there!!
