Fantastic property heated pool. Our guests say it is even better than the photos

The property is one of 2 gites located next to each other. They appear to have connecting do9ors in the event of a large family renting both. The Gite was well furnished and equipped , it was obviously well maintained and far more spacious than it appeared fro the photographs. The bedrooms were large and all had ceiling fans which was a definite plus in the heat. The main room and 2 of the bedrooms had views over to the Pyrenees. The views are as impressive as shown in the photographs. The owners are on site but remain unobtrusive whilst being on hand to deal with any problems. The Property is located within easy travelling distance of a number of mediaeval sites and Toulouse and Carcassonne or even a day trip to Andorra. This was a late booking for us as we had business in Toulouse and we combined a holiday. We were pleasantly impressed and would certainly consider visiting again.

We were 3 couples of sisters, brothers and partners. What a beautiful setting and a stunning renovation! Perfect for our needs, so well equipped and so relaxing. Lorna, David and Rosie were brilliant as yhe hosts as were the other couple staying the same week in the adjoining house. Carcasonne, limoux and foix all well worth a visit in the area with the Guidot wine tour a great experience Thanks all, we will be back!!

Fabulous! Lorna is a star!

This gite is in a superb setting, quite high up near the village of Manses, with wonderful views of the Pyranees. Lorna, the owner, gave us a very friendly welcome and told us about local dog walks for our dog Max. The gite was enormous and as we were just a couple we only used the downstairs which had a beautiful bedroom and ensuite shower room. There were a further three bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs! The lounge and kitchen/dining room were huge and fully equipped. We had a great verandah where we spent most of our mornings and evenings. It was peaceful, hot, and with the views, who could ask for more. We travelled quite a bit in the area as we are planning on retiring to France and wanted to get to know the area. I would recommend Mirepoix on Monday market day but get there early, it is also great for a drink/lunch/dinner etc. on any day of the week, sitting in the ancient square with all those fabulous buildings. We travelled through the Pyrannees to Pas de la Casa in Andorra, a very scenic journey but the end result, the ski resort, looked quite drab and too commercialised, especially without snow! We also had a very pleasant lunch at the cafe on Lac Montbel - the colour of the water being the bluest you have ever seen. All in all I would recommend this gite without exception and the host Lorna, was very hospitable and welcoming. Thanks again for a lovely stay.

Een fantastisch adres, zo ontzettend mooi!! Lorna en David zijn een super aardig Engels stel, die van een voormalige stal een ontzettend mooie accommodatie hebben gemaakt: zeer ruim, zeer licht, zeer modern, brandschoon en super comfortabel, het kan echt niet beter. Vanaf de woonkamer en het terras heb je dus precies het uitzicht dat op het plaatje staat: over het licht glooiende landschap naar de pyreneën. Schitterend! De pool is eveneens fantastisch en met hetzelfde uitzicht! Tevens: zeer zonnig hier, we waren er eind september en hadden vanaf 8 uur 's ochtends tot om half acht 's avonds zon bij het huis en de pool. En Mirepoix - ein klein, zeer charmant stadje - is binnen 7 minuten met de auto bereikbaar. Hier zijn tal van leuke restaurantjes en cafés en winkeltjes en maandag vindt er een schitterende markt plaats. Kortom: het kan niet beter en we komen zeker terug! ----- Ein wunderbarer Ort und die vielleicht schönste Unterkunft die wir je gemietet haben (wir mieten über diese Website seit 11 Jahren;-). Wirklich der Hammer: David und Lorna sind super nett, die Unterkunft ist sehr geräumig, sehr hell, modern und super komfortabel und sauber, und vom Wohnzimmer und der Terrasse aus hat man genau den Blick wie er auf dem Foto steht. Einfach umwerfend! Auch den ganzen Tag Sonne, wir waren Ende September da und sogar zu dieser Jahreszeit hatten wir ab 8 Uhr morgens bis halb acht abends Sonne. Der Pool (mit demselben Blick in Richtung Pyrenäen) ist klasse und Mirepoix ist nur 7 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt. Ein sehr nettes und charmantes Städtchen, wo man alle Einkäufe tätigen kann, gut aus essen und Montags ein sehr netter Markt stattfindet. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder! ------ Ce gîte vraiment est encroyable! Très spacieux et limineux, soleil pendant toute la journée (au mois du septembre à partir de 8 heure le matin jusqu'à 19 heures), vue superbe sur les pyrenées et Laura et David sont très sympa! Le gîte est très moderne, propre et très comfortable, aussi le swimming pool est parfait et la ville de Mirepoix (très charmante!) est de 7 minutes en voiture. Vraimemt parfait, on espère revenir bientôt!

Lorna and David have done an excellent job with Le Cazal. We are all agreed that it is the best gite holiday we have had in France. The property is of a very high standard, the views are spectacular and Lorna and David are always available should you need any help. Highly recommended and we wish them all the best.

Can I keep this a secret ... no, it would not be fair to Lorna and David Cannell. This place is a gem, we had a wonderful stay for 4 weeks in April, with the most hospitable and caring hosts. Le Cazal is such a beautiful and authentic French Farm with the most lovely gites. The walks are fantastic, the gite was fantastic, the hosts fantastic; what else can we say, I would like to have stayed forever.

A week at the beginning of February could have been dismal but we we had sunny days and clear crisp nights so it was perfect. The living area faces south so it was bright all day long because of the patio and french windows and warm too. We only needed the wood stove in the evenings and it kept us nice and cosy. The property is attractive, comfortable, spacious, clean and well equipped. The views to the Pyrenees are just fantastic. It all looks great in the photos but in reality, it is even better! Mirepoix is a lovely town and surprisingly lively for the time of year. The market on Monday is well worth a visit, if only to sit outside with a glass of wine and watch the world go by. Carcassonne is great, especially the castle. The drive to the Cathar castle at Queribus was as enjoyable as the castle itself. It was only a hop skip and jump from the Mediterranean so we drove there across country and back via the coast. We managed a couple of days skiing at Ax-les Thermes. Great place, inexpensive - make sure you ask for insurance to be added to your ski pass. We had a busy week but could just as easily stayed at Le Cazal enjoying the views with some good wine. Le Cazal in winter is fantastic so we are planning to return for a summer stay too.
