Our family of four and the dog spent a lovely two weeks at La Paloma. The place is immediately relaxing and close to a lovely village with a couple of good restaurants and shops for most things you need. The pool area is fantastic and the boules track and table tennis were great for the kids. Wi-Fi was strong enough for video calls too. John was a fantastic host and super helpful when our car broke down on the way down to Arles - really appreciated. He really went out of his way to make sure we were OK and nothing was too much trouble during our stay. Thanks so much for a lovely stay!
Nous avons passé de bons moments en famille. La maison possède une belle terrasse et a beaucoup de couchage. Seul bémol la pression de l’eau et le nettoyage de la piscine qui peuvent être améliorés
10 of us stayed in this lovely property. The accommodation is split into two - the main living area upstairs and a flat with two bedrooms and a small kitchen downstairs. Location is great. Amazing views. Lots of local shops in easy walking distance.

Views to die for!!
A great property for a large family as you can hire both levels. We stayed with our family of 3 generations and all really enjoyed the house, pool and garden. There are quite a few steps up to the house which is not ideal for elderly parents and little ones, but the views over the mountains are so amazing that it makes it so worth the climb.
The house is very comfortable and very well equipped - everything seems to have been thought about .
Our 6 children loved the pool, gardens and table tennis table and the board games in the evenings.
The location is fantastic as it is so quiet, but you are only a couple of minutes walk from the village with it's shops and cafes.
John ,the owner was so very helpful and even found us a local vet for our dog.
Overall, a super holiday home in a beautiful area

A fantastic base for cyclists!
La Paloma is a wonderful location for cycling breaks. The scenery and roads around La Paloma are perfect for creating some truly memorable rides. We went out every day on rides organised and guided by John Biggs. The variation in the rides, and some of the views from the mountains made every day an adventure. La Paloma has it all..hill rides, flats, coastal rides. This resort is highly recommended for any keen cycling groups. We will never forget our stay there.
The resort itself is perfect for evening recoveries after a day on the saddle..thank you, John for your hospitality and organisation.

Casa para familias y grupos grandes
Hemos estado una semana un grupo de 10 personas entre adultos y niños y alquilamos tanto la casa como el apartamento. La casa es espaciosa, hay suficientes habitaciones y baños para estar cómodamente y con independencia. La decoración es muy sencilla, tal como se ve en las fotos y hay gran cantidad de menaje de cocina. La piscina es muy agradable, la temperatura del agua muy buena. Por estar rodeada de jardín y plantas, nos hemos encontrado con muchos mosquitos, sería bueno tener mosquiteras en las ventanas. y quizá más ventiladores, ya que hemos estado en una semana de ola de calor.
El propietario resolvió rápidamente un pequeño contratiempo, está muy pendiente y contesta con rapidez. Hemos tenido una buena estancia.

Spacious house, stunning views in great location
We stayed at La Paloma for 10 days this month. We arrived in the dark - so to wake up to that stunning view in the morning was amazing.
There were 12 of us, 7 adults and 5 children and there more than enough space. Plenty of room for us to sit around all the tables, both in and out. The layout was as listed and clean and well maintained, although the villa is slightly more up to date than the apartment.There are rather a few stairs, which was good exercise after all the lovely local cheese and wine but some may struggle with them. Adults and children loved the pool, so much so that we hardly left the villa - great that the pool had gazeboeetc for some shade. Table tennis and mountain bikes got used well too.
The village, Arles surles tech, was very handy to walk to for the shops - Spar, butchers, bakers etc and the restaurants were good, altough not open very late as we discovered on our first night! Bigger supermarkets were about 20 mins away.
John was very helpful and easily contactable with any queries we did have. We had a great time and would love to go back.

Fantastic villa with impressive views and a great location...
We have just returned from a fantastic week at La Paloma - we were 7 adults and 4 children and the house was more than spacious enough. The facilities are as clearly explained, and more than comfortable, with plenty of crockery and cutlery to cater for meals, and the convenience of dishwashers to help with the clean up. The best facility was by far was the pool - separate enough from the house that the kids couldn't accidently fall in - a great feature that was used daily. The BBQ got lots of use, with the dining mostly happening on the main terrace. The house was clean and generally well maintained, although the main villa is better appointed then the apartment downstairs. The only negative was that the TV wasn't getting reception, but that wasn't a significant problem - you're not on holiday to watch TV!
The centre of Arles-sur-Tech is only a few minutes' walk away and offers a small Spar store for the essentials, a couple of restaurants and the expected patisserie, charcuterie amongst others. The Abbaye is worth a visit - very beautiful and peaceful. You need to go a little further for a larger supermarket (we went to the one in Céret - about 20 mins drive).
The owner (John) is quick to answer questions and in general great to deal with - we will be recommending La Paloma to friends and family looking for a spacious house to accommodate a large group of people, in a beautiful setting and offering great value.

Great place for autumn break!
We spend really nice two weeks in La Paloma villa in Arles sur Tech. The village and the surroundings are really beautiful. There are a number of places to visit within short drive and you can easily enjoy both of the mountains and the sea in this location. In many ways the area is more orinal and less crowded compared to other coastal regions in southern France. This time of year (october) you can still have really nice weather (we spent many days enjoying the pool) but as the summer season is over the area is really calm.
The villa is really spacious and it has many terraces and balconies to enjoy of sunshine and the marvellous views over the village and surrounding mountains.
John took very good care of us providing information and checking that everything was ok. I am happy to recommend this rental.

A good possibility for families with children. Good property with excellent pool. Charming town and good possibilities for excursions in the Pyrenees.
