Testimonials

A beautiful home in Languedoc.

We have house sat for Anna several times. On each occasion we have had a wonderful time. Anna has made a beautiful home which is spacious, airy and full of light. There is a peaceful terrace to enjoy meals or evening drinks and a roof terrace which is a perfect spot for stargazing. During the day there are distant views of the Pyrenees. Her home is very comfortable and well equipped, and Anna was generous, welcoming, thoughtful, great at communication and an excellent host. Her Labrador has a very sweet temperament, is good company, is responsive and well trained. Walking with him at any time is a pleasure. Anna is an enthusiastic gardener and has made an exceptionally beautiful garden space to be in. She was very clear with information about what needed to be done to keep everything healthy while she was away. None of which was onerous. The house is situated in a village on the edge of the Languedoc national park close to the beautiful Orb River Valley where there are great opportunities for hill walking and hiking through gorges, kayaking, cycling and sightseeing. Plenty to keep us occupied at any time of year. The Mediterranean coast offers a dog friendly beach for seaside walks and the city of Beziers is not too far for exploration if desired. All in all we have had a wonderful time in Anna's home. Thank you Anna!! Chris and Caroline
