About this property

Ivy covered stone Mas part of an 18th century former convent.

Comfortably appointed Gite within a renovated 18th Century stone Mas, with Ivy clad walls. Mas Grandiflora is just 10 minutes from Perpignan International airport within the historic village of Espira de L'Agly. Encircled by lush gardens it is a gardeners delight with a large Magnolia Grandiflora, Hibiscus, Bougainvillea, Datura, grape vines and orange and lemon tress. The shared pool (open May to September) is private but has a view of the 12th Century bell tower and village Church.
La Bougainvillea has 2 bedrooms. ( sleeps 2-5) One is on the ground floor sleeping 2-3 people using a double bed and a single bed and opens up onto the terrace. On the ground floor there is also a toilet and wash hand basin. The stairs lead to the first floor living/ dining area, kitchen, double bedroom and shower room.
We also have 2 other Gites on the premises. La Petite Maison sleeps 2, L'Hibiscus sleeps 2 adults and 2 small children sharing a sofa bed.

Lovely property - great location
Mas Grandiflora is a delightful property in a picturesque village near Perpignan. The ideal base from which to explore the local area.

Des choses a revoir
Mr et Mme >GROOM sont très chaleureux très bon accueil jardin ravissant. la disposition du logement est a revoir la chambre à l'étage est déprimante pas de fenêtre juste un velux, dans l'ensemble le mobilier est a revoir trop ancien. la chambre du rez-de-chaussée est correcte. l'escalier pour rejoindre l'étage et trop raide. dommage que la piscine ne sois pas chauffée alors qu'il me semble avoir vu une pompe à chaleur.

Excellent Gite and Holiday
A lovely gite exactly as described, we were at home as soon as we arrived, with all the modern facilities we are used to coming from a capital city but set in a lovely countryside village not far from sandy beaches and spectacular mountains, not to mention lots and lots of vineyards, which of course means.... eating lots of grapes! :) We spent a long time searching for the right destination for our 2 week holiday because we expected a lot 1, warm weather 2, comfort 3, rest 4, access to different activities to match the weather (October) 5, value for the pennies 6, good experience and memories, all these boxes were ticked and we had a great holiday. The Owners Julia and Julian were perfect, very welcoming and helpful showing a genuine interest in our plans and exploration of the area including overseeing our efforts to BBQ (although I suspect that may have been partly motivated by self preservation and the protection of their beautiful home from a possible fire!) I could go on?........ really though, if you have read all the information and are trying to decide? It is as described, we will be back to enjoy the relaxation and so much to see and explore yet . Ana and Tony

great location comfortable apartment
We really enjoyed our stay in the area. Espira is the perfect launchpad for visits inland to the mediaeval villages in the foothills of the Pyrenees and to the (blue flag) beaches of the Mediterranean. Warm weather and warm sea in October! The owners were friendly, helpful and approachable. The apartment was well-equipped, very comfortable. Would happily return. Much more to see and do.

Fabulous
Had a wonderful week staying at La Bougainvillea and Elaine & Alvin were very welcoming hosts. The apartment was spotless and comfortable and the pool was an absolute joy after a days sightseeing. The outside area for sitting and eating was surrounded by an absolutely beautifully kept garden. There is a BBQ available and despite the stairs, this was made use of a couple of times. Based in a village opposite the church, with a small supermarket, bakers, butchers, bar and restaurant there is everything you need to hand but would recommend a car as there is so much to see and do not too far away. We very much intend to come back to this area in the future and would not hesitate to stay here again.
