Great house, great location
The house is great....excellent facilities including a wonderful pool, with fantastic views of the stunning village and the surrounding hills. Ideal location, just a couple of minutes walk down the hill to the village bakery, butchers, general stores, a couple of bars and a handful of restaurants. The friendly owners couldn't have been more helpful and maintained good communication before and during the trip.

Beautiful location - fabulous holiday
We had a great week! The property was perfect for a family of 4 - peaceful with a gorgeous view and pool. Easy walk into Orlagues for groceries, boulangerie etc. and fab pizzas from the town’s pizzeria. We hired e-bikes from Velo Riques in the town and had a brilliant day of traffic-free cycling on the Voie Vert. Also visited Carcassone which is approx 90 mins away by car. Lovely hosts who kindly let us check in slightly earlier after an early landing in Montpellier airport. Thank you!

Olargues gîte with stunning views
We loved our week here. The house is well equipped with plenty of fans available for the unusually high temperatures we experienced (39 in the shade) and the pool was very much appreciated. We ate on the shady terrace for every meal and it was lovely to watch butterflies and an occasional gecko enjoying the flowers and sunshine. The village is a short (steep) walk away with beautiful views along the way. Cyclists can use the cycle path that is accessible from the village and the village has a small grocery shop, butcher, bakery and a couple of bars/restaurants. Thank you to Lou for meeting us and answering questions about the house and the area.

Family Summer Vacation
We stayed as a family of 6 (adults and teenagers) to celebrate a special birthday and to revisit the area. The treelined house is located just off the centre of Olargues and is within walking distance of the local grocers, butchers and bakers. The town is known for its art and there are a number of artist studios and craft shops to visit.The town is riverside and Frejo warerfall is within easy walking/biking distance on the voie verte cycle path. The house is much more spacious than the photos suggest as mentioned by another guest. It was helpful to have 3 bathroom spaces. The kitchen is well provisioned and the bedrooms have hanging and shelf space. The lounge is very comfortable and the owners have supplied a DVD player by way of Freebox multimedia console. Able to watch Netflix and a multitude of channels which was great for movie nights. Pool was a good size with shallow area and loungers. The view from the pool area and terrace is stunning. Very private and accessible at the same time. Would recommend for families and small groups wishing to be central to the Orb area and have the benefit of river beaches and bike trails on your doorstep. The owners were very helpful in providing local information and helping with queries. Overall a very enjoyable summer holiday location.

Beautiful house, lovely location
We had the most wonderful holiday at the property. The property is on one side of the valley opposite the village of Olargues. We would swim every morning in the pool and have breakfast on the terrace overlooking the village and the surrounding mountains. We felt very welcome and comfortable in the property. We especially enjoyed sleeping in the mezzanine bedroom with lovely views in the morning. It was very airy and cool, and the bed was very comfortable. We also enjoyed trying to work out the code of the church bells! The village has several small shops, including a boulangerie, butcher, and general store. One evening, we walked to the local pizza place and had fresh pizza for supper, perfect for staying local. There are many activities nearby, from hiking to cycling and canoeing. We hired bikes from the nearby garage in Mons -la-Trivalle, a few minutes' drive away and spent the day cycling the Voie Verte. The trail is open year-round, and the scenery is beautiful. Walking the Gorges d'Heric was a wonderful surprise. The white-water canoeing down the River Orb was exhilarating! We visited Carcassonne, Béziers, and Montpellier. We have fallen in love with Olargues and the surrounding area and look forward to returning. Thank you to our hosts for sharing this wonderful home.

Ferienhaus Olargues
Schönes großes Ferienhaus in toller Umgebung. Etwas störend sind die vielen frei laufenden Hunde in der Nachbarschaft sowie die enge und steile Zufahrt. Ferienhaus war nicht ganz einfach zu finden, da es keine Hausnummern gibt.

Séjour en toute tranquillité
Nous remercions Jean-Paul et Sylvie pour leur accueil chaleureux et pour tous les petits conseils qu'ils nous ont fournis sur la région. Tout est fait pour passer un séjour en toute quiétude. L'emplacement de la maison est idéale avec une vue exceptionnelle sur le village et les collines environnantes. Les commerces (boulangerie, boucherie, pharmacie, supérette, bar tabac, hôtel restaurant) sont accessibles à pieds et les commerçants sont tous très sympathiques. La piscine est agréable et bien entretenue. Elle est très bien agencée pour les jeunes enfants et sécurisée grâce à l'alarme. Il y a énormément à faire et à voir aux alentours du village. Et force est de constater qu'une semaine n'est pas assez pour profiter de la maison et visiter les alentours. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

Traumhaftes Haus in wundervoller Umgebung
Sehr tolles Haus und ein sehr netter Vermieter. Küche gut eingerichtet, die beiden Badezimmer sind super und großzügig. Auch der Rest des Hauses ist sehr nett eingerichtet. Es fehlt an nichts. Die Terasse und der Pool sind gut geschützt und trotzdem hat man eine traumhafte Sicht. Man ist definitiv für sich, von den Nachbarn bekommt man nichts mit. Der Pool ist spitze und wir haben ihn oft genutzt. Es gibt auch einen tollen Holzkohlegrill. Die Umgebung ist ebenfalls top. Der Ort Olargues bietet einen netten Bäcker, einen Metzger, einen kleinen Lebensmittelladen, Cafes und Restaurants. Ein richtiges schönes Kleinod. In der Umgebung gibt es viele tolle Wanderungen, u.a. die Gorges d'Heric oder auch einen Teil des Passa Pais. Die Strände z.B. in Valras-Plagge erreicht man in etwa einer Stunde mit dem Auto. Das Haus ist absolut zu empfehlen, wir haben hier eine wundervolle Woche mit zwei kleinen Kindern verbracht.

Nous avons passé une excellente semaine avec notre chien. La propriété est très bien située, au calme et sans vis à vis, sur les hauteurs du village avec une magnifique vue sur les montagnes. La maison est très agréable à vivre. Nous avons passé de bons moments autour de la piscine après de belles randonnées dans la région. Seul bémol : la taille du jardin un peu exiguë.

Beautiful setting
The property is on one side of the valley opposite the medieval buildings of Olargues. The View from the property is amazing of the village and the surrounding mountains. The village has a number of small shops and restaurants that were perfect for staying local. There are a number of activities nearby from hiking to cycling to river rafting. The pool in the property was very large perfect for swimming although it should be mentioned some parts were deep and therefore there was a noticeable difference between outside and pool temperature. The terrace with bbq and table was well shaded and provided comfort during the hot days and nights Overall a wonderful property and one of the best we have stayed at over the years.

Wunderschöner Urlaub
Wir durften zwei Wochen an diesem wunderschönen Ort verbringen. Angefangen von der sehr netten Begrüßung durch die Familie Molières, die immer für Fragen offen waren, über das perfekt eingerichtete Haus, die großzügige Terrasse mit Panoramablick auf das Dorf Olargues , den sehr schönen und vor allem sehr sauberen Pool, den kurzen Wegen zum Bäcker, Metzger, Gemüseladen und Marktständen bis zur wunderschönen Umgebung, genossen wir jeden Tag. Wir konnten uns völlig frei und unbeobachtet in dem Anwesen bewegen. Ausgedehnte Radtouren auf der alten Bahntrasse und in die umliegenden Berge, Ausflüge ans Meer und in die umliegenden Dörfer und Städte waren weitere Aktivitäten die man problemlos unternehmen konnte. Es war sehr ruhig und zum Schluß des Urlaubes besuchten uns in der Nacht sogar noch ein paar Wildschweine. Alles in allem zwei perfekte Urlaubswochen.

I wish I booked two weeks.
A really lovely, relaxed and comfortable house in a really beautiful part of the Haut Languedoc. But it was the shaded terrace and sparkling pool that were the real stars. I wish I had booked two weeks instead of one. The house is larger than it looks on the photos and comfortable sleeps 6, although the 3rd mezzanine bedroom means it probably works better for families or close friends. The town of Olargues is really charming and only 5 minutes walk to a good bakery, butcher and some nice épiceries plus a good selection of restaurants. It was a lovely weeks stay.
