chambres d'hotes le vieux mas

"Underneath the 2700 metres of Mont Canigou, le Vieux Mas is hidden away on the Pyrenean mountainside. We were made to feel welcome and offered refreshment on arrival. Then Marie-Hélène told us where we could walk - either up or down! Dinner was served and we ate with Gilles and a niece and enjoyed good conversation with good food and wine. Our room and bed were comfortable and breakfast was excellent."

"First let's start with the important part. This is not a hotel, nor a refuge, it's a Chambre D'Hote which in the case of our booking included half board (dinner and breakfast). As this was my first experience staying in a Chambre D'Hote, I was surprised how it works. You are staying effectively on the property of the owner and they are your host. They prepare the meals and eat and apero with you. Equally, they work to join the other guests and bring everyone together for conversing about local subjects, things to do, etc... For me this was interesting but not really my cup of tea. Having known the format, I would have chosen another place to stay; that said, the owners are very, very nice. The food they prepared was delicious and copious. The rooms were good, but the bed not the most comfortable. We would have liked to have had access to WiFi for researching areas in the coming day. Finally we had hoped to bring our dog along but were informed that the owner had just had puppies and it wouldn't work which was a shame because our dog would have really loved the area."

"Nous sommes 2 couples et y avons passé 2 nuits. L'endroit est beau, calme et très dépaysant. Nos hôtes, Marie-Hélène et Gilles, ont été parfaits : à l'écoute et de bon conseil pour l'organisation de notre séjour et des visites conseillées dans le coin. Petits déjeuners et diners concoctés par Marie-Hélène étaient très bon et copieux. Notre séjour était malheureusement trop court, mais cette découverte nous a vraiment donné envie de revenir. Merci !"

"Super séjour dans un endroit authentique et cosy. Marie Hélène et Gilles sont adorables à l'écoute souriants et chaleureux. La chambre est spacieuse avec une literie confortable. Salon cosy idéal pour lire regarder la télé ou jouer aux jeux de société avec petit feu dans le poêle (mon kif absolu 😍). Table d'hôte pour le repas du soir (vraiment pas cher) repas délicieux et très copieux |Petit déj parfait |Bref on s'est régalé. Adresse à retenir absolument."
