Fantastique villa, piscine, près de Château Valmy, près du village, du port et de la plage et de La Racou

We stayed at Karen and Tim's villa with our 4 children aged 23, 20, 17 and 10yr. The villa was perfect for our family - it felt so spacious and was impeccably clean! In fact it felt like a brand new villa as everything was so immaculate. The pool was lovely with plenty of sunbeds around it and 2 sets of outdoor seating areas each with 6 seats. Loved the fact it had off road parking which was behind a gate we could lock. Felt very secure. The air-conditioning in the living area and all bedrooms was very welcome as the weather was rather warm, as you would expect in the South of France. It was very peaceful - we never heard any of the neighbours. There weren't any shops within walking distance so you would definitely need a car whilst staying here. It was only a 5 minute drive to the local Lidl though, which had everything you could need. We spent most days at the beach in Argeles - lovely sandy beaches (the sand was a bit coarse so our 10yr old was a little disappointed when she couldn't build sandcastles) but the beautiful sea made up for it - so clear and calm. Even though we stayed in August the beaches were not over crowded and had plenty of parking. Went to Collioure a couple of evenings for dinner which I would thoroughly recommend. Thank you Karen and Tim for allowing us to spend our summer holiday in your gorgeous villa. We will recommend to all and hope to return ourselves one day! .

Property suited our group well. Future tenants should be aware of the rather steep stairs to lower level. Any queries/problems we had were dealt with by the owner & caretaker immediately. Could I suggest a “booklet” giving information on local attractions & transport options. I would certainly recommend this property with it’s beautiful pool as a wonderful holiday accommodation.

Our French and the Villa Manager’s English was poor so welcome was not easy. However, the owner dealt promptly with the initial issues raised and even arranged for a plumber to come next morning who was excellent and sorted out a problem with one of the showers. Guests need to be aware that only one bath towel is provided per person and no hand towels or pool towels are provided. Only four chairs around a table in the living area but plenty of outside chairs and sun beds by the pool. Great location, 5 minutes drive to Racue beach, Port and one euro bus from Eric Cantona stadium (near Port) takes you to Collioure (well recommended). Plenty of markets around including a night market around the port. Children loved the pool and we all had a great holiday.

We found this villa in Argeles very comfortable and convenient. It was perfectly clean and described accurately on the website. Arrival was straightforward and we had been given all the information we needed. Soon after we arrived in fact, someone called to the door to make sure that everything was okay for us. The owner was easy to contact at all times before and during our stay. It is a convenient spot for exploring the whole area and we visited the local market in Collioure and also the fishing villages of Port Vendres and Cerbere. We didn’t have children in our party but I can imagine how they would have enjoyed the pool at the villa, and the long sandy beach close by.

We spent a wonderful two weeks in the villa in Argeles sur Mer. The villa is in a perfect location, a short walk to the village with lots of public transport nearby. The villa is spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean. I would recommend the yellow train for a great day out. June was the perfect time to go as it was not too hot and not too crowded.

Fantastic place, lots to do in the area, the villa had everything we needed very modern and seemed newly renovated. The pool was great for young and old and June was the perfect time to visit as previously we found July /August very busy. It proved to be a lot less expensive as well. Spent a day in the mountains and it was breathtaking, highly recommend the yellow train. The bikes were brilliant but bring a ‘Gilet Jaune ‘if out late. Hugh variety of good restaurants near the beach and Port. The manager was very helpful and kind and we will be back.

Myself and seven others stayed in this beautiful villa for two weeks in June. The villa had four big bedrooms which comfortably slept all 8 of us. It had a large living area and the kitchen is a major bonus. This allowed us to prepare meals on the nights that we didn’t eat out. There is also a BBQ. The back of the house has a large patio area and private pool. This is one of the major bonuses of the villa as we had privacy to swim and relax in the sun. The location of the villa is perfect as it is situated between the old town and the port of Argeles- sur-mer. It is a 5-10 minute walk to the old town and from here we could stroll to the local markets on a Wednesday or Saturday morning or go for dinner or drinks in the evenings. To the port it is a 5-minute drive which has many restaurants, bars, shops etc. The villa was close to many gorgeous beaches such as the main Argeles beach and Racou beach etc. We drove to Collioure which is located around 15-20 minutes away which was a lively picturesque town by the sea. From the villa we drove to Barcelona for a day trip. It took around 2 hours to arrive from Argeles to Las Ramblas in Barcelona. I would definitely recommend this villa as everything was perfect and Isobel the manageress were extremely friendly and helpful. I will undoubtedly be back again!

Lovely villa with everything you need.Great space inside .The pool and garden area were fantastic.The boys were in the pool two or three times a day and with the hot weather it was the perfect way to cool off.I loved swimming at night with the pool and garden lights,magical.Easy walk to old town for bars ,restaurants,small but very well stocked supermarket and bakers for fresh bread (and cakes!!)Lovely tourist train brings you to the new town and beach if you want a more livelier atmosphere.Villa in a very safe ,peaceful area.We didn't do any day trips as we had been to Disneyland the week before but plenty of places locally to discover if you wanted.We had a great holiday and highly recommend this villa.
