In a rural area and near theme parks, this vacation home is in a walkable area with good shopping. Abbaye de Sainte-Marie and Prats de Mollo la Preste Church are local landmarks, and the area's natural beauty can be seen at Gorges de la Fou. Be sure to check out the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.
10 of us stayed in this lovely property. The accommodation is split into two - the main living area upstairs and a flat with two bedrooms and a small kitchen downstairs. Location is great. Amazing views. Lots of local shops in easy walking distance.
A great property for a large family as you can hire both levels. We stayed with our family of 3 generations and all really enjoyed the house, pool and garden. There are quite a few steps up to the house which is not ideal for elderly parents and little ones, but the views over the mountains are so amazing that it makes it so worth the climb. The house is very comfortable and very well equipped - everything seems to have been thought about . Our 6 children loved the pool, gardens and table tennis table and the board games in the evenings. The location is fantastic as it is so quiet, but you are only a couple of minutes walk from the village with it's shops and cafes. John ,the owner was so very helpful and even found us a local vet for our dog. Overall, a super holiday home in a beautiful area
La Paloma is a wonderful location for cycling breaks. The scenery and roads around La Paloma are perfect for creating some truly memorable rides. We went out every day on rides organised and guided by John Biggs. The variation in the rides, and some of the views from the mountains made every day an adventure. La Paloma has it all..hill rides, flats, coastal rides. This resort is highly recommended for any keen cycling groups. We will never forget our stay there. The resort itself is perfect for evening recoveries after a day on the saddle..thank you, John for your hospitality and organisation.
We stayed at La Paloma for 10 days this month. We arrived in the dark - so to wake up to that stunning view in the morning was amazing. There were 12 of us, 7 adults and 5 children and there more than enough space. Plenty of room for us to sit around all the tables, both in and out. The layout was as listed and clean and well maintained, although the villa is slightly more up to date than the apartment.There are rather a few stairs, which was good exercise after all the lovely local cheese and wine but some may struggle with them. Adults and children loved the pool, so much so that we hardly left the villa - great that the pool had gazeboeetc for some shade. Table tennis and mountain bikes got used well too. The village, Arles surles tech, was very handy to walk to for the shops - Spar, butchers, bakers etc and the restaurants were good, altough not open very late as we discovered on our first night! Bigger supermarkets were about 20 mins away. John was very helpful and easily contactable with any queries we did have. We had a great time and would love to go back.
We have just returned from a fantastic week at La Paloma - we were 7 adults and 4 children and the house was more than spacious enough. The facilities are as clearly explained, and more than comfortable, with plenty of crockery and cutlery to cater for meals, and the convenience of dishwashers to help with the clean up. The best facility was by far was the pool - separate enough from the house that the kids couldn't accidently fall in - a great feature that was used daily. The BBQ got lots of use, with the dining mostly happening on the main terrace. The house was clean and generally well maintained, although the main villa is better appointed then the apartment downstairs. The only negative was that the TV wasn't getting reception, but that wasn't a significant problem - you're not on holiday to watch TV! The centre of Arles-sur-Tech is only a few minutes' walk away and offers a small Spar store for the essentials, a couple of restaurants and the expected patisserie, charcuterie amongst others. The Abbaye is worth a visit - very beautiful and peaceful. You need to go a little further for a larger supermarket (we went to the one in Céret - about 20 mins drive). The owner (John) is quick to answer questions and in general great to deal with - we will be recommending La Paloma to friends and family looking for a spacious house to accommodate a large group of people, in a beautiful setting and offering great value.
