Great place in a quiet town
This property was exactly what we needed as a big group of single friends due to the many twin beds. The location is great as climbers with the house being an easy walk to the boulders and a bakery for delicious pastries and sandwiches. The host is very kind and went out of his way to help us when the washing machine in the property wasn't working. I will note that there was not a hot tub at this property as listed in the description which was a bit disappointing but I am imagining that was some sort of translation error.

Gîte idéal pour proximité escalade et randonnées, petit bourg avec histoire, très calme
Maison ancienne retapée, Propriétaires très accueillants et bienveillants, équipement correct, logement propre, lits confortables, linges de lits propres et en bon état. Lits faits à l’arrivée. Parfait pour notre week end de deux jours avec nos enfants. Bien pour 7 personnes.

Estancia en familia 15dias
En el anuncio no se especifica que hay que dejar 300 euros de fianza en efectivo nada más llegar, cosa que me parece super importante, y que la luz que se gaste apartir de 7 pasos diarios, se paga aparte... La limpieza bastante justa. El resto muy bien
