About this property

Mountain Lodge - Taurinya



Mas Lartigues is a stone-built mountain retreat, it is situated within the Canigou National Park, 2km (4mins drive) outside of the village of Taurinya and only 15 minutes drive from the market town of Prades. This unique property is nestled at the base of Mount Canigou. Ideally suited for families, hikers, nature lovers, explorers and cyclists. The property benefits from total isolation and tranquility (nearest neighbour 1km, nearest road 700m).

Stunning scenery visible from the property includes Mt Canigou to the right, Abbaye De Michael Cuxa ahead and views over Prades and the Eastern plain of Rousillion to the left.

INSIDE

The house is arranged over two floors with the upstairs split into two parts and accessed by independent staircases. The first staircase leads up to three bedrooms, one ensuite bathroom and one shower bathroom. The other staircase provides access to two more bedrooms, with another bathroom. Four of the upstairs bedrooms have access to the communal balcony.
The ground floor comprises a sixth double bedroom with en-suite shower and sink, a large entrance hall area with sofa, piano and WC. The kitchen features granite worktops, La Canche range cooker, fridge, freezer, microwave and all necessary utensils needed for family/group cooking. A large country table sits 12 guests. Finally, on the ground floor is a comfy lounge area complete with fireplace (free firewood), sofas, games, TV and sound system.

OUTSIDE -

The property sits within it's own grounds of some 18 acres within over 1000 acres of protected forest, a large outdoor dining table sits beneath a mature Fig tree providing shade from the sun. When not soaking up the views, the heated pool (10m x 4m) provides fun for all with plenty of pool toys/infaltables and diving board. Optional pool fence available for young children. Pool Room has toilet, sink and shower.
Pool Heated between May - September


BBQ is a traditional charcoal. Fruit trees are dotted around the property which guests can freely pick from (Apple, Fig, Grape, Pear). To the rear of the property is a large terrace accessed from the upstairs of the house or from the front patio area.

Throughout the grounds can be found many other seating areas and hammocks. For children, we have an area under a mature Oak tree with swings and a 17ft long trampoline. The property's driveway extends for over half a kilometer where it joins a quiet rural road which makes for this to be an extremely peaceful location.

By foot, various trails lead from the property's location, towards the villages and towns of Taurinya, Fillols, Prades, VilleFranche de Conflent, Clara and Ria-Sirach.

Within sight is the Benedictine Abbaye of Saint Michel De Cuxa, a popular tourist location and venue for the famous yearly Prades classic music Pablo Casals Festival.

Fantastic mountain getaway
We are a group of 8 and just had the most fantastic 2 weeks in this house. Views are spectacular, the house is well equipped and very spacious and the pool was a good size and a nice temperature. All bedrooms open up on to the balcony where you can watch the sun rise & deer grazing on the garden. Buzzards & kites flying over every day. Market at Prades on Tuesday is worth a visit and also Fort Liberia - if you don’t take the 800 steps up then be prepared for a adventurous & very bumpy jeep ride!! The bbq area is large with useful surface areas & plenty of fridge & freezer space in the house. Nick was very helpful and responsive. We’ve been holidaying in France for many years and this tops everything, we hope to visit again some day.

séjour très médiocre
a part le charme de la maison, tout est à critiquer, propreté (une souris morte dans la friteuse !, ménage moyen...) mais surtout au bout de quelques heures plus d'arrivée d'eau ni de chauffage en plein hiver !!! Propriétaire quasiment injoignable qui a juste envoyé un ami qui ne maitrisait pas du tout ces problèmes et pas en capacité de joindre des professsionnels. Nous exigeons un remboursement total de ce séjour.

La maison a la campagne
La situation est superbe complètement isolé.Locaux communs mal rangés et quelques équipements réfrigérateurs limite propres.La cuisine pas nettoyé ,mobilier de salon limite.Quelques chambres et salle d’eau à terminer au niveau Déco + fuite évacuation lavabo.Porte fenêtre et volets dur à ouvrir et fermer.Nous avons loué une maison aux prestations et prix identiques mais pas dans cet état.Pour ne pas accabler on voit que tout est fait pour vivre à l’extérieur et on peut oublier certaines choses.ATTENTION à votre électricité dans les pièces humides pour la protection des usagers.

Merveilleux séjour dans un endroit magique
Nous étions 12 personnes (adultes et enfants) à séjourner pendant deux semaines dans ce joli chalet. L'emplacement du chalet est magnifique avec une vue imprenable sur la vallée et un calme absolu. Les espaces extérieurs avec la piscine, le salon d'été et la table sous le figuier sont très agréables et bien entretenus. A l'intérieur le chalet est bien aménagé et propre malgré une petite fuite de plomberie dans la salle de bain du haut. Les chambres et salles de bain du premier étage sont plus modernes que la chambre du bas et sa salle de douche. Il manque un peu de vaisselle pour des tablées nombreuses. L'accueil et la gestion du séjour furent parfaits. Toutes nos remarques et demandes ont trouvé réponse à chaque fois. Nous avons été très heureux de notre séjour.
