Maison magnifique bien aménagée dans un magnifique village.
Un gros problème pour se reposer : les cloches de l’église collée à la maison sonnent aux quarts d’heure H24 avec le nombre de coups de cloche égal à l’heure qu’il est deux minute avant chaque heure et deux minutes après chaque heure.
Nous avons donc été réveillés aux heures ou aux quarts d’heures pendant tout le séjour.
Billard en mauvais état malheureusement et balles de ping pong cassées .
Piscine sale et terrasses pleines d’excréments d’oiseaux.
Mais nous avons passé un bon séjour familial car le cadre est charmant

C'est une tradition dans de nombreux villages catalans de faire sonner les cloches de l'église 24 heures sur 24, et nous y sommes habitués, mais il est vrai que cela peut sembler étrange pour quelqu'un d'extérieur. Nous y sommes habitués mais il est vrai que cela peut paraître étrange pour quelqu'un d'extérieur.
En ce qui concerne la piscine, elle était parfaitement propre à votre arrivée. Mais il y a eu des jours de pluie et de vent, donc les feuilles tombaient. Et bien que nous ayons envoyé le jardinier plusieurs fois pour la nettoyer à nouveau, les feuilles continuaient à tomber.
D'autre part, dans un jardin avec des arbres, il y a aussi des oiseaux. Et comme pour la piscine, à l'arrivée, les terrasses étaient parfaitement propres, mais au bout de 10 jours, les oiseaux génèrent des salissures.
Quant au billard, l'usage intensif qu'il a connu cet été a beaucoup usé le tapis et nous envisageons de le changer cet automne. Enfin, si vous m'aviez parlé des balles de ping-pong, je vous aurais dit où nous gardons les nouvelles.
Je suis heureux que, malgré ces petits désagréments, vous ayez passé un bon moment à la maison.
Salutations. Alex

Nous étions un groupe et nous avons vraiment passé un excellent séjour. La maison est très belle et agréable à vivre. Nous avion peur de la taille de la piscine mais finalement elle était très bien.
Merci !

Estancia muy agradable
Hemos pasado una fin de semana muy agradable en Cal Gat. Mónica es encantadora.
Dispone de espacios polivalentes ideal para niños de todas las edades, futbolín, pin-pon, etc..
Lo más destacable es la notable calidad de los desayunos y cenas, que además se pudieron adaptar a menús para celíacos. Añadir que se puede disponer de comedor diferenciado de niños y adultos para grupo!!
El entorno es privilegiado y permite salida cercanas en bicicleta, andando en llano o excursión por montaña con desnivel. Recomendable las visitas a las pozas de la zona.
