With this house there are a range of positives and negatives and overall the positives out way the negatives. The property is on a substantial south facing plot with a good sized pool and masses of outdoor sitting, lounging and dining spaces more than ample for 6 guests. The property is located about 1.5km or 15 minute walk from the town centre in a beautifully quiet residential area, so the description of "just 2 steps from the centre" needs revising and as taxis are virtually none existent during the week, it might be an important factor if you have mobility problems or don't want to drive at night. Positives : Jean was very prompt in responding to emails prior to arrival, he was also very prompt in arriving to welcome us and show us around the property and quickly got us a second key, as we were two couples. The owner leaves you alone and doesn't disturb you whilst you are in the property. The ground floor is modern and well furnished. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with crockery and cutlery and glasses and every appliance you could want including a very large fridge freezer. The Weber gas bbq is top of the range and very efficient although very limited bbq cooking utensils. The property has air conditioning throughout The ground floor bedroom is modern with a lovely, if not quirky en-suite bathroom. The owners were very prompt in attending to major issues they were on site within the hour and the pool was in full working order by midday - you couldn't really ask for more Negatives The owner did not respond to the request for three light bulbs that weren't working, one being the main light in the third bedroom. The bedding smelt fusty and we had to wash and dry all the bedding to freshen it up, which made a massive difference. All the bedding could do with replacing for next season as they have seen better days. The first floor is looking tired and need of some TLC but we assume the owner will address this in the winter months, especially the bathroom, although the beds were comfortable. Limited wardrobes on the first floor with no coat hangers but a lovely separate lounge area. Nobody involved in the property speaks anything but French, so Google translator or a good grasp of French is essential although we got by, it was slightly frustrating when you had an issue. It would have been useful to have a handbook about the do's and dont's of the property and local attractions and a map. Having a guide to Montpellier, i
