Cottage Apartment In The Heart Of The Beautiful Village Of Eus

We offer comfortable, 'traditional' but contemporary accommodation in the gorgeous countryside of this region.
The apartment comprises a queen double bedroom off the living/dining/kitchen area. A bathroom with a full-size, powerful shower makes the third room. There is a private terrace/garden to the rear, with space to relax, and a garden table-and-chairs to take the indoors out.
In the living room there is a 43" TV serviced with France's Orange network, as well as a DVD player and a small DVD library. A fast, wireless internet connection is available to keep your digital devices connected and for streaming shows on the TV.
Quite rare but sometimes a necessary luxury in Eus, a village often touted "the sunniest in France", there is air conditioning in the living room and bedroom. You will appreciate it on the hottest days in July and August! Ceiling fans are also installed to keep you refreshed.
A fully equipped kitchen with cooker, stove top and microwave will allow you to indulge a little ‘cuisine française' if the mood should take you.
The small village of Eus is officially recognised as one of 'Les Plus Beau Villages de France' on account of its stunning location and well kept 'old world' quaintness. The narrow alleyways are fringed with exotic plants and flowers, and you can see that the locals take a great deal of pride in their lovely village. There are several artists and crafts people who live and work in Eus, and their products are available right from their workshops and galleries or in the craft-shop in the village square. If your appetite for local crafts is not satisfied here, there is a larger selection in the nearby, fortified village of Villefranche de Conflent.
Eus is a popular destination in summer and is served by a growing number of cafes and eateries popular with the locals, many with commanding views of the surrounding mountains.
Dining experiences further afield in Rousillon-Conflent are as varied as the countryside and its people and you will discover why the region is famed for its fusion of Catalan, French and Mediterranean cuisine.
Close by is the market town of Prades, where supermarkets and other essential services are to be found, and famously plays host to the annual Pablo Casals music festival in July/August. Browsing the stalls of the busy Tuesday market and a local farmers market on Saturday are must-do’s in the town square of Prades. Try the assortment of cheeses and other locally produced delicacies!
Indeed, there is so much for the visitor to enjoy in Eus and the surrounding area. For those on a cultural visit, there is rich history to be found in the many villages of the Conflent and beyond. The region is an important wine producer and if that interests you, there are several vineyards that offer tours and tastings. Mountain sports from walking or mountain-biking in the hills and valleys, to rafting or canyoneering the many rivers and tributaries are all on offer here in the foothills of the Pyrenees. The major ski resorts of Font-Romeu and Les Angles are less than an hour away by car or bus. Take a scenic train ride to the mountains on the famous 'little yellow train' and eat delicious crepes in one of the many bars and restaurants of the fortress town of Mont-Louis.
There is simply too much to do and to see in this stunningly beautiful and unspoiled area to give it justice here, better to go explore for yourself and you will see why the few who have discovered this tiny corner of France, always vow to return!
