We had a lovely time in the area with easy 30 mins to the beach or the mountains. The help and information from the hosts was excellent and the provision of the bikes was great. House was in a central location to the village with many amenities, restaurants and Boulangerie close by. Narrow streets could mean larger cars could find it more difficult. Lovely market on a Wed evening. Lack of air conditioning in the 2nd bedroom made sleeping more difficult in the south of France heat.

Lovely cottage to stay in, fully equipped, wonderful location between mountains and sea. We also followed the hosts' excellent recommendations for restaurants and places to visit which were well worth it. Friendly neighbourhood and pleasant village atmosphere. Very smooth communication with the host. Would highly recommend!

We spent a fantastic week at this cottage in Tautavel. 2 adults and 3 kids. Tautavel is a lovely small mountain village with very friendly people, good restaurants and wines - especially we recommend Domaine Fontanel. The house is in excellent condition, and exactly to the description. The rooftop terrace provides a special view to the Tautavel castle ruins - and we also highly recommend hiking up there for a beautiful view. Pay attention to the house folders where the owners have put a lot of information and recommendations for sights and places to visit. One special thing we want to mention about the house: We have been using HomeAway and rented cottages and villas for at least 10 years traveling all around Mediterranean. We think that the household appliances, kitchenware and overall functionality of this cottage is the best so far. Very practical also - you will find everything you need for cooking. The owners Inger Marie and Kim are very friendly, and communication and all arrangements were very easy with them. So we give this property and their owners the highest rating of 5/5 and hope to be back sometimes in the future!

Communication with Kim was easy and he was helpful with ideas for places to visit. The house in Tautavel was a real pleasure to stay in, very well equipped for visitors, with an extremely private sun terrace and a parking space. (A small hire car was useful as the roads are narrow). We enjoyed both the charms of the area and the design of the house. There was a striking lack of insects so we needed NO mosquito repellent, even at the lake (hard to believe but true!) The only thing to note is that the sofa-bed in the hall on the top floor was a little hot for sleeping as the air-con did not reach the top of the house. We won’t forget swimming in the lake or seeing a shooting star from the roof terrace, many thanks for sharing your space Kim and Inger-Marie.
