Gezellige woning, perfect om de regio te verkennen
Gezellig verblijf in Lespignan, knusse woning met alle voorzieningen. We verbleven er met kinderen tssn 6 en 14 jaar.
3 slaapKamers beneden blijven koel, waarvan 1 slaapkamer met 3 bedden echt wel voor kids is ( kleiner bed en 1 stapelbed) . De trap naar beneden is voor kleine kinderen moeilijk.
2 persoonskamer gelijkvloers wordt wel te warm , daar zou airco mogen.
Het huis heeft een schuin plafond, in de slaapkamer en badkamer op gelijkvloers is dit voor grote personen minder handig.
Het zwembad is niet zo groot, maar wel zeer verfrissend op warme dagen.
Huis ligt op loopafstand van bakker/slager/Spar/enkele restaurantjes en apotheker, wat zeer handig is.
Verder is Lespignan zelf eerder toe aan een opfrisbeurt, de mensen zijn er wel vriendelijk. Het dorpje is niet toeristisch.
Met de wagen ben je op +/- 20 min aan zee, Bezier, natuurdomein La Clap, le canal du midi….
Ein herrliches Haus mitten in einem ruhigen Dorf bei Beziers. Haus, Innenhof und Pool sind herrlich. Die Inneneinrichtung ist geschmackvoll, komfortabel und mit vielen liebevollen Details. In der Umgebung befinden sich tolle Sandstrände und hübsche Städte. Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert!
maison très facile à vivre et à s'approprier. Juste une petite remarque l'heure du départ qui se fait à 10h est un peu tôt, surtout quand les personnes pour nettoyer la piscine arrivent à 9h30.
Mais cela n'a en rien changé à notre séjour très apprécié de tous.
We have just returned from an idyllic stay in this beautiful house in the middle of a lovely French village. We were 6 adults - 3 couples - and the house was more than big enough to accomodate us all with ease. It is charmingly furnished with a fully-equipped kitchen and plenty of seating inside and out. The pool is big enough to cool off and have a short swim and if you bring a lilo like we did then there is extra sunbathing space! Sitting outside in the garden and hearing the sounds of the village around us was a great pleasure but it was quiet enough to sleep - even though the village was 'en fete' when we there and had a fair and bands playing - enormous candy floss and dodgems!
There are 2 boulangeries within 5 minutes walk and the Spar had nearly everything we needed - if not the Casino supermarket was 10 minutes drive away. Great greengrocer and very helpful Pharmacy as well.
Our favourite beach was Valras Plage which is pretty and fairly uncrowded but has restaurants and shops as well - this was a 20 minute drive away and there were other beaches not much further. Beziers itself was very lovely with lots of Cathar history.
Jennifer was extremely helpful throughout our stay.
All in all if you want a lovely lazy holiday in a proper French village then I cannot recommend this house highly enough - we were very sad to come home.
Wir (zwei Familien 4 Er. und 3 kleine Kinder)
haben unseren Urlaub bei Jennifer sehr genossen.
Im Haus hatte alles notwenige um den Urlaub zu geniessen.
Draussen war es eher eng und es hatte nur zwei Liegen für uns ausreichend. Zudem war für uns vorallem für die Kids der Pool eher kalt.
Auch unsere Hunde kamen nicht zu kurz, ca in 30min war ein Strand (Portiragnes) an dem sie auch dabei sein durften. Und es hatte viele Parkplätze sowie ein tolles Restaurant am Meer.
Jennifer und ihre Familie war sehr freundlich und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Vielen Dank

Beautiful rustic house with plenty of space for everyone
Right from the initial point of contact Jennifer couldn't be more helpful. When we arrived there was a lovely welcome gift and a bottle of wine. Everywhere was clean and tidy and just lovely.
The rooms are all a good size and the pool is just a God send on hot sunny days.
There were 8 of us and we had plenty of space.
The kitchen had everything we needed, the oven is a bit fierce so would suggest cooking everything at a lower temperature.
We stayed for 2 weeks and Jennifer was the other end of the phone if we needed anything. I personally can't recommend this place enough and would love to go back again, well to be honest we didn't want to leave.
Thank you for letting us borrow your home and for everything along the way.

Everything I wanted and more!
The listing was as advertised. It's rustic charm gives the feeling of more than a place for a holiday; a feeling of coming home. Sunny days under a palm tree by a lovely clean pool and an easy to operate barbecue. The owner was charming and even purchased extra outdoor chairs when we said there would be guests for a barbecue. She is certainly someone willing to go the extra distance for her guests. The open plan kitchen/dining area is very convenient. With comfortable bedrooms on both floors there is plenty of privacy. The rustic feeling gives an idea of what the village might have been like a century ago, but with modern conveniences. It was altogether the happiest of times and I look forward to a return stay.

Quirky property full of character
When we arrived at the property the owner was there to greet us and give us a guided tour. She was friendly and helpful and was able to answer all our questions. The property itself met our expectations in terms of facilities. It is an unusual property, very rustic and full of character. The courtyard garden was lovely and our children spent hours in the little swimming pool. We enjoyed using the BBQ and there was plenty of room for all nine of us to sit and eat outside. There were a few minor issues which need to be sorted out: the kettle leaked, there was a hole on the staircase which needs fixing, fridge did not seem 100% efficient, the dishwasher was a bit temperamental and there were no hangers in the wardrobes. However this did not detract from our overall enjoyment and we would definitely rent this property again. The village of Lespignan is quiet and feels quite off the beaten track which we liked. There is a bakery, greengrocers, butchers, a Spar, a pizza shop and three restaurants within a few minutes walk. There is also a good supermarket and Mc Donalds 10 mins drive away. There were lots of lovely beaches and plenty of places of interest to visit within an hours drive including the beautiful Canal du Midi, Carcassonne and Montpellier .

Fantastic holiday villa
Our party of 6 stayed in May 2016 and we LOVED it.
The villa is the perfect base from which to explore the area or for a relaxing break. It is full of character and wonderful features. Outside has a great area to make the most of the climate: to sit in the sun, dine, BBQ and has a lovely sized pool.
Indoors has lots of space and is very well equipped. Actually, if anything we would say that the pictures do not do it justice - it is best to see with your own eyes!
In addition to the property, the owner was absolutely lovely. She was so helpful and knowledgeable, we really thank her for allowing us to stay in her home. Thank you Jennifer! Highly recommend.

Nice house for up to ten persons
This is a very nice house for up to 10 persons. We were there for two weeks with our kids (14 and 16 years old) and several adult nieces and nephews. We came by car from Germany, but others used the airports in Toulouse (2 hours) and Béziers (with a flight for 23 € to Dusseldorf!) or the trainstation in Béziers (20 minutes) or Narbonne (30 minutes). The rooms were fine (bring warm pyjamas in the end of may for the downstairs rooms!). The upper bathroom is very small but fine for the two people sleeping upstairs. Only two WC´s for ten persons can cause a "traffic jam". The kitchen was well equipped with really everything you need. Maybe it would be helpful to know that the "coffee machine" is for Senseo pads (I brought plenty of coffee powder for filter coffee which is mostly used in Germany). The living room has plenty of space and a huge table for everyone. The pool has an adaequate size even for many youngsters playing in it (I am afraid the neighbours didn´t have as much fun as the kids in the pool...). Everything was clean and well-maintained. The only minus is the small outdoor area beside the pool with only two sunbed chairs and no place for any other outdoor activity except reading, sitting and talking. In the first week it was very windy and the parasol couldn´t be used when the wind was too strong. But in the second week with perfect sun and warmth there was always a bit of shade and a bit of sun for everyone who liked one or the other (very nice to have breakfast on a sunny table in the early morning).
For food you have the Spar close by and within 10 km Lidl and big French Supermarkets (where you get cheap fuel!). And a very nice boulangerie in walking distance.
We made nice trips to Carcassonne, the Kathare castles Quéribus and Peyrepertuse, Narbonne, Béziers, Montpellier, Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert, Abbaye de Fontfroide and Sete. Dining in France is expensive, but we recommend an evening in Sete, where you can dine along the canal for 15 € for 3 courses - try the seafood, snails and frog´s legs!). Menus at noon are often cheaper.
Altogether it was a wonderful holiday in Languedoc!
The owner Jennifer awnsers e-mails really quickly and helps with any information you need - and she is really generous! I can recommend her house warmly to larger groups!

Late summer rental
We rented L'Oasis for a late summer early autumn break and the weather was perfect for enjoying this part of France, namely the vineyards. The house was airy and had plenty of room for kids to run around. We particularly enjoyed the bar b q and pool area, it was very cosy.
Jennifer was extremely helpful and attentive to all our questions and requests, she is a mine of information and really made a difference to our stay.
Thank you and best wishes,

A Wonderful French House
We booked this house for the weekend to celebrate my partners 50th, There were 8 of us in the party all adults, we wanted a house with lots of french charm and we were not disapointed, this house oozes with charm, it is in a beautiful village with everything you need to make it a holiday to remember, we were all fighting to get to the village every morning to get our pastries and french bread for breakfast, there is plenty of room for 8 adults + it has everything you could need. plenty of room, with charming bedrooms. Jennifer was so helpful answered all our questions before we booked, and even sent a message while we were there to make sure we had everything we needed. she also recommended a lovely place to eat for our birthday meal nearby at Hostellerie du Chateau! which was very good food and a very reasonable price. We were very unfortunate to book the weekend that it rained, but that still did not stop some of us using the pool and with a large log burner to warm us up after was a treat. We hired a car a drove around the area and it is truely beautiful. If you want a slice of french charm than dont look for anywhere else this property offers it all. and made it a birthday weekend to remember. We are hoping to go back next year, there really was not a single dislike about the service or the property

L'Oasis Lespignan
The living room is absolutely lovely with plenty of room for the seven of us and the kitchen is generously equipped. The bedrooms are beautifully set out and those downstairs are dark, spacious and cool. The upstairs bedroom is sunny and low-ceilinged. The garden is a courtyard with chairs, barbecue, two sun loungers and an excellent dining table and although charming, we found it disappointingly small for the seven of us. It is a compact, shady space laid with pebbles making sunbathing difficult. Some of us lay towels on the narrow planks surrounding the small pool and balanced precariously. If, like us, you like to lounge around outside reading and basking then perhaps this is not the house for you but it is the perfect base for exploring the local beaches, towns and tourist resorts

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Mar, 2020
Thank you for your feedback. We will create more soft lounging space and offer additional loungers for the 2012 season. The best sunshine in the courtyard is in the morning and early afternoon, in the late afternoon there is not a great deal of sun, but in the heat of summer that can be a godsend. Cheers.

Clean well maintained property
We spent a very pleasant week in L'Oasis with a large group. Enjoyed the bottle of excellent rosé and welcoming guidebook put out to greet us. The house is unique in that it ihas the space of a villa, but is literally in the village and convenient to small grocery stores, bakeries and such.
We loved the very original and spacious Provencial charm of the house, the open-beam ceilings and the open floor plan. The owner has taken time to furnish the house with unique and rustic furniture that adds to the cosy atmosphere. It is more charming and spacious than it looks in the pictures, and feels clean and airy with white floorboards and elegant touches. It appeared that the owner had taken great care to remedy all complaints posted by an earlier visitor and she also told us that she had made several upgrades to the house over the winter. We used the new stone barcecue to cook outside and eat by the pool.
The bedrooms downstairs were cool, private, and stylishly decorated. Having the two full bathrooms helped handle the crunch during bath and shower time. The couple sleeping in the master bedroom liked the added touch of the Balinese netting above the bed. The pool was clean and has a child enclosure. The owner was concerned about our well being and phoned to make sure that everything was satisfactory and to our liking.
The house is within 10-15 minutes of several nice beaches; we´d recommend a car to get around.

village house Lespingan
This house is French rustic, The listings were fairly correct and directions good,The village can provide all necessities,the bread and pastries from both patissieries are excellent, the shops are just a short walk away
The house was clean and well equiped and there were fans in every room.On the downside the stairs to the bedrooms were very steep and had only one handrail, stairgates provided for young children,there was no switch at the top of the stairs to put on the downstairs light you had to go down the stairs to put it on before switching off the upstairs lights before going to bed,even so the stairs were badly lit.Two of the bedrooms were very dark and were lit by rather dim bedside lamps,the shutters were too far out of reach to open easily and could not be fixed in semi open position. There was no lock on the bathroom door and we had to devise a signal system for occupied/vacant. the second bath room was directly off the sitting room and only suitable for children or washing hands. the furniture inside and out has seen better days and is quite uncomfortable. The wooden surround of the pool is rotting and the paint peeling, sometimes into the pool. the outside could be made more attractive by,ie; painting the rusty entrance gate and tiling the poolside. The "barbeque" was disappointing.On saying this we had a good holiday and would probably come back to this house again if we were holidaying in this area.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Mar, 2020
In response to the above review, we are thankful for all the
constructive feedback, and have thus remedied all the concerns noted:
we've updated our furniture, added another handrail, installed a light
at the top of the stairs, installed better lighting in the bedrooms,
developed a better opening/closing system for the shutters, and put a
lock on the downstairs bathroom door. Since this review, we've also added an additional bedroom and also updated the furniture in every room, while keeping with the French rustic style. We've put in a larger dining room table and added a bunk bed in one of the children's rooms. While the wood around the pool was not rotting, we took it out and installed a special pool decking material around the pool. We also installed a stylish terra cotta barbecue into the pool courtyard wall and put in a larger outside table. We also painted both the inner and outer gate, as well as the shutters, a lovely turquoise. Thanks again.

Fabulous house in a beautiful village
We stayed in this lovely house in October 2009. It is an unusual and quirky property that is ideal for a relaxing break away.
Located in a quintessentially French village the property has all the charm we hoped for. The living accommodation is above the sleeping accommodation. The bedrooms are darker than the upper floor living area which is perfect for ensuring quality night's sleep! There were some lovely touches such as a bottle of rose waiting for us. It was clean and well kitted out.
There is a secluded yard with a pool - rather on the cool side but welcome after heating ourselves up beside it in the sunny afternoons. There is also a barbeque and plenty of dining space.
The village has several boulangeries and enough places to get your supplies to cook at home. There are not many places to go out in the evening, but we didn't feel this was a problem as the house is perfect for realxing in in the evenings.
We spent the days windsurfing in the nearby village of Saint Pierre la Mer and exploring the local vineyards. We rented bikes from one village, Valras Plage I think, and cycled to Beziers, along the Canal-du-Midi and watched the boats descend a huge flight of locks.
On our last night we ate at the restaurant in the hill top villa. It was wonderful and the views from the terrace looking over the pan tile roof tops was magical.
I would highly recommend this property as a holiday location.
