Fisherman's house above the Old Port in Port-Vendres
This is an attractive small 19th century house recently restored, in a quiet cul-de-sac, less than 100 m from the waterfront. It has a large living and dining room, with an open plan kitchen separated by a bar. Above this is a mezzanine with 2 single beds. Below is a roomy bedroom with 1 double bed and 1 single bed, a bathroom (bath plus shower cabinet), and separate toilet. Sleeps 4 â 5. Reversible air conditioning and supplementary electric heating. Internet connection and telephone. Television and DVD player. From the sitting room there are pleasant views to the church and headland, and from the balcony a view to the Old Port. Outside the front door is a small enclosed terrace (lemon tree, pomegranate, oleanders etc.) with a garden table and chairs.
We wanted a base from which to spend 10 days srokelling and mountain walking - Gareth and Irene's house was perfect!
Everything you need is within walking distance - restaurants (we recommend Le chant du poulpe', amongst the best restaurants I've been to) bars, and grocery store. There's a small quiet creek 10 minutes walk away to cool down in the sea. A little further (20min drive) the marine nature reserve awaits you - you don't need to go to an aquarium, you just stick your head underwater. The only thing missing is the David Attenborough voice over and your in a BBC nature documentary.
The house itself is basic, but it has everything that you would need. Everything is clean and in good condition, the living room is large as is the main bedroom. As it's built into the mountain side it remains cool even in the afternoons which is great. The shady patio is a real bonus, and the views of the port at sunset are great. There are loads of info if you're into hiking, with all the detailed ordinance survey type maps you will need so that you don't get lost!
We really recommend a stay at Port Vendres - perhaps not as picturesque as Colioures ar Banyules, but so much quieter, and this is still a working port, not just a tourist trap.
Diolch i chi, Geraint ac Irene, fe ddaru ni fwynhau!
Interesting, comfortable multi-level house with good harbor and surroundings view. Central location for hikes, shopping, swimming, dining, transportation. Car isn't necessary here. Cool loft for kids or old kids has view out skylight. Facilities all work well.
Owners have been ill, so we understood why it wasn't sterile like a dentist's office but adequately clean.
Fun place, nice neighbors--
Alles entsprach der Beschreibung. Freundlicher Kontakt mit Vermietern und sehr unkompliziert. Tolle Ausstattung, alles da was man fĂŒr entspannte Ferien braucht. Viele schöne Ausflugsziele in der nĂ€heren Umgebung. Deutlich weniger touristisch als die Nachbarorte.
Funkade bra! Har gÄngsvÄrigheter sÄ trappan i huset och i staden var utmanande, men det funkade. Parkering saknades egentligen men det löstes med hjÀlp av en hjÀlpsam granne.
à tervÀndsgata som ocksÄ var en utmaning att vÀnda pÄ. HÀrlig utsikt! Praktisk semesterbostad. Bra kontakt med vÀrden. Kan tÀnka mig att hyra igen !
Wunderschön gelegene ruhige Altstadtwohnung.
In wenigen Minuten steigt man die Treppen hinunter zur Uferpromenade.
Sehr gute Einrichtung der Wohnung.
