Fin de año en la montaña

La casa tiene unas vistas espectaculares, está muy bien dotada y es muy cómoda para un grupo grande. En invierno disfrutamos mucho la chimenea y los paseos por los pueblos aledaños. Si buscas un lugar para desconectar está muy bien!

What a treat it was to stay in this home. The house is beautiful and shows pride of ownership. You can easily imagine that this house has been passed down generation to generation. This is wonderful place to stay with your family. The owners rightfully ask you to be careful with the hardwood floors and once you see how beautiful they are you will understand why. This is the perfect place to go for a quite family getaway. If you are from the states it like staying in a fariytale. There are plenty of amazing things to do within a short drive. Castles, caves, villages, hiking and more.

Séjour atypique

Gîte très agréable et accueillant mes amis ont apprécié les grands espaces du logement et le cadre extérieur. Tous ces bons côtés font oublier l'accès voiture un peu raide.

About the host

Hosted by Jean-Barthélémy Maris

Originally from Roquefixade and Ariégeois, I live in Toulouse where I practice my profession. In love with this pretty corner of the South of France, I have at heart to discover this magnificent terroir and this beautiful surrounding nature that I rub shoulders with since my earliest childhood. The Maris House is a family home to which I am very attached and which contains a lot of history. I will ask you to preserve it and respect it as if you were staying with one of your close acquaintances.
Not living there, you will be in contact with Margaux who will manage the entire activity. It will inform you about the activities of the surroundings and will be your only and privileged contact.
Do not hesitate to ask her to organize your arrival and stay, Margaux can advise you and indicate the places you cannot miss.
I hope you enjoy this accommodation as well as I enjoy sharing it with you!
