Villembits holiday lettings

I cannot recommend Raf and Marleen highly enough! They made us feel so welcome and really went above and beyond! The villa was stunning but felt like home and our children loved playing in the pool all day! Even our dog enjoyed exploring and meeting new friends. This really was the perfect holiday for us. Thank you, I'm sure we will come back!

Our second time staying at Les Hourquets. It's a great base for the Marciac Jazz festival and exploring the Pyrenees. The garden and the pool are perfect for relaxing in between! Thank you for another lovely holiday.

The farmhouse is beautifully renovated, the kitchen is well equipped, all mod-cons, great wifi. The pool is fantastic! The location is relatively remote, in a peaceful spot nestled between two very small villages. The local town (Tries) has everything you need for daily essentials, butcher, bakers, grocers, plus an Intermarche. For larger supermarkets (hypermarkets), various options are further afield near Auch or Tarbes. Grand Frais in Tarbes was fun. There are plenty of fantastic local markets, we enjoyed Mirande and the huge market at Lannemezan, which also seems to have some good restaurant options. Marciac is a beautiful town, and a must when the Jazz festival is on, there's lots to see and free music in the main square and a few other locations in town. We enjoyed some trips to the nearby Castelnau-Magnoac which has a good little market, a reservoir with pedalos (about 5km walk around it), and a fantastic bakery/patisserie La P'tite Boheme We made a couple of day trips to the Pyrenees, although most destinations in the mountains are a couple of hours drive each way. Graeme and Kirsty stay next door (next house along) and were never intrusive but were available to help when we needed it, and have a wealth of local knowledge to share. Thanks both for helping make it an awesome and memorable holiday for all of us!

A beautiful child friendly Gite in the Dordogne. Jonathan is a very friendly host although we didn't actually meet him, it was Jo the housekeeper who met us on our arrival, she was very friendly and welcoming and easy to contact throughout our stay when needed. The Gite itself is absolutely stunning. How lucky were we to find this amazing place. It is spacious, clean, modern and fully equipped although it lacks air conditioning which would have been appreciated with the heatwave we experienced during our stay. However the bedrooms each had fans and it didn't ruin our holiday. The swimming pool is fabulous, we swam every day and so are the gardens, tennis court, trampoline, table tennis etc, etc. The church bells nearby ring frequently, every hour to be exact day and night but it was actually quite nice and you quickly get used to them. The nearest shops are 10 mins drive away in the lovely village of Trie sul Baise. It's all situated in a very quiet rural area and if you are looking for a relaxing quiet family holiday this is definitely the place. We would highly recommend it. We were the only ones there to experience this truly amazing property, we definitely felt spoilt! A visit to the Velorail 40 mins drive away was great fun, the family loved it.
