Each year we take over the entire building as a base for the St Gauderic Music Festival. Each year the Festival gets better - due in no little way to the warm welcome and excellent food and accommodation provided by Dave and Sylvia. We run them off their feet, but they still smile. The facilities are excellent for such a... More

Spent 3nights here recently after reading the reviews on this site and we were not disappointed. The place itself is lovely and the views all round from the lake and fields at the back to the panorama of the Pyrenees at the front are fabulous. The owners David and Sylvia were very welcoming and the food excellent. The breakfast was... More

Very friendly welcome. Family room was split into 2 rooms separated by an archway, giving a nice sense of privacy. Lovely scenery with mountain and lake views from the auberge. We ate in the restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed the lovely meal. We stayed in 6 hotels during our 3 week trip and this was definitely the best experience and best... More

Situated just outside Mirepoix this was in an ideal location to tour the area. The food was excellent when we ate there and the service was faultless. The views from the hotel were perfect with the Pyrenees in the distance.Very quiet location and just what we were looking for. Nothing was too much trouble. We would recommend to anyone and... More

I am not often ashamed to be British but I was here. The British couple who own/run it clearly have no idea! The whole place looked run down and tatty. Rooms are awful and the bar / restaurant no better. A few flowers in pots outside and the area surrounding the hotel tidied up would make a great difference. More

We were very sorry to read this review. The comfort and enjoyment of our guests is obviously tremendously important to us and clearly we fell short of expectations on this occasion. Our neighbour's property, part of which can easily be mistaken as our own, has been rendered and painted and the outside area, which comes up to our restaurant has... More

We stopped here en route from Chamonix to The Pyrenees so after a long drive we could not have asked for better. Spotless rooms, comfy beds and a great view (if the weather had been good) and very quiet. We had a delicious meal and the quail was excellent.

The location of this charming Auberge was well suited to my requirements for visiting the region, providing both pleasant walks of the surrounding area and an ideal location for motoring further afield. The nearby town of Mirepoix is very pleasant, providing varied shops, a market and a small collection of bars and restaurants. No matter what my activity I could... More
