Lagrange - accommodation in Vernet-les-Bains

Everything completely exceeded expectations - the house, location, amenities and Martin's responsiveness and generosity. Martin very kindly allowed us to arrive early and to leave mid afternoon, excellent communication, nothing was too much trouble. There were 16 of us - 6 parents, 4 grown up offspring and their partners plus two children aged 7 and 11. Everyone had an absolutely fantastic time. Something for everyone.Thoughtfully restored ex hotel with comfortable spaces to gather and quiet areas to retreat to. Kitchen was really well equipped for large groups with 2 x 5 ring gas cookers, 2 big ovens, big pans, bowls, as well as industrial sinks. Masses of space to eat inside and out. Expected to eat out more but ease of cooking meant we ate at home mostly.Weather was hot so we made the most of the huge 9mx5m pool and barely had time for the pool table or table tennis but good to have the choice. It was 3 mins walk to the square with boulangeries, gelato, music and dancing in the evening. Interesting strolls around this historic village/small town and more strenuous walks up from the house into the surrounding hills/mountains for stunning views and river swimming. It was really liberating having so much on the doorstep without having to drive and only a short drive to ancient towns, forts, monasteries and abbeys, plus 'le trein jaune'. Perfect! Absolutely loved it. Planning our return. Thanks so much Martin.

Hotel clean and tidy. Reception staff were happy to speak English. Unfortunately no air conditioning in the hotel.

Endroit magnifique et serein. J'y serais restée plus d'une nuit si j'avais planifié autrement. Accueil sympathique et tout plein de respect. Personnelle jeune et bien entraîné.
