Guest comments
"Nous avons adoré nos vacances dans le gîte « Le Hibou ».
La disposition des gîtes et des terrasses permet de garder son intimité par rapport aux autres hôtes.
L’endroit est aussi très bien adapté pour les enfants. Tout le matériel est à disposition : chaise haute, barrière pour l’escalier, petit pot, jouets, etc. La piscine est spacieuse, avec une pataugeoire pour les petits qui est très pratique et sécurisante.
Paulette et Simon font tout pour qu’on se sente bien et qu’on ne manque de rien. C’est vraiment un endroit à recommander, tant pour les vacances en couple qu’en famille ou en groupe!"

"We spent a thoroughly lovely two weeks at Le Prielle with our two daughters, aged 5 and 3. Simon and Paulette are thoughtful, knowledgeable, genuinely lovely people who have created a wonderfully peaceful, relaxed environment that combines a high standard of accommodation with all the enchantments of the French countryside. Our girls had an idyllic time feeding the chickens and hunting for eggs each morning, picking fresh fruit and vegetables for dinner, splashing in the pool for whole afternoons and playing on the swings until dusk. The gite was spacious, clean, comfortable and fabulously well-equipped - we're finding it difficult living without an ice dispenser now we're home - and the one day of inclement weather in the entire fortnight gave us the opportunity to appreciate all the extra touches that make this place uniquely personal (art class in the barn and a ride on the lawnmower made for some great memories!). The offer of baby-sitting and lifts to and from Madiran that allowed us a night out for dinner were also greatly appreciated! A rare gem of a place."
