Pour les amoureux du calme et de la tranquillité... parfait pour nous !
Idéalement placée pour la découverte de l aveyron. Logement restaurée avec goût, ou il y a tout le nécessaire. Un peu chaud dans les chambres à l'étage. Nous en garderons un excellent souvenir.
Pour qui cherche le calme - le vrai - c'est le paradis.
Le patrimoine local est riche, les possibilité de balades nombreuses et les opportunités de flâner au bord de l'eau multiples.
Un coin de nature comme il devient difficile d'en trouver.

Endroit calme et reposant
Manque climatisation dans les chambres. Manque d’entretien dans les extérieurs.
Når man ankommer til ferieboligen, så er det meget svært st finde nøglen. Vi oversætter fransk/engelsk så står der nøglen er ved posten( vi troede det var postkassen) vi måtte have fat i en nabo til hjælp. Ellers havde vi en rigtig god tur😀
Très belle demeure dans 1 endroit tranquille et très jolie.
Voisin très agréable et sympathique.
La propriétaire est disponible et très gentille également.
En bref nous avons passés 1 séjour très agréable, nous reviendrons

Gîte propre au fin fond d'un hameau
Notre séjour s'est bien déroulé par les visites environnantes. En revanche, nous avons été surpris pour l'accès au gîte au fin fond d'un hameau, les trous béants et l'état du jardin, les problèmes d'évacuation d'eau dans la douche, l'état de l'aspirateur, le manque de rideaux, les endroits où nous pouvions nous cogner la tête,... bref, le gîte a du charme et nous voulions passer de bonnes vacances, alors nous nous sommes adaptés.
La maison est très bien équipée
Nous avons appréciées l’emplacement et la tranquillité du lieu
Si vous souhaitez vous ressourcer n’hésitez pas

Rapport prix/ gîte inadapté…
Gîte dont le prix (15 jours-1050€ hors frais hébergement site) ne correspond pas à ce que l’on est en mesure d’attendre d’un gîte de ce prix. Propreté douteuse, frigo avec des moisissures conséquentes, très peu d’aération dans chambre à l’étage et sous les toits, pas de WC à l’étage-il faut descendre 25 marches et en remontés autant-alèses des lits non changés (Covid …!)SDB ridiculement petite sans la moindre tablette, tancarville tout rouillé…. Bref, heureusement que l’environnement ( ballades, rando, vue, est agréable…
ATTENTION: bien mais toutes les prestations n'y sont pas !!!
Le gite est très agréable de par sa situation et sa tranquillité.
Gros souci: pas d'accès Internet et pas de télévision comme indiqué sur les prestations. Nous avons reçu le technicien pour la réparation de la TV. Pour Internet par contre, la propriétaire vous envoie chez le voisin (très aimable en l’occurrence) - Cool n’est-ce pas ?
Nous attendons toujours le geste commercial promis malgré plusieurs échanges de SMS.
Calme et confort pour notre séjour d'une semaine. Gîte très bien équipé et bien tenu. Idéalement placé pour rayonner dans la région du Nord Aveyron.

Séjour aveyron
Lieu sympathique ! Maison agréable et au calme !
Les petits bémols : très compliqué à trouver ( surtout de nuit !), des services absents comme la wifi la TV et plus de gaz...
Mais l Aveyron est magnifique alors la semaine fut très chouette !!!!
Maison vivante, à mille lieux des gites impersonnels loués uniquement pour faire du chiffre. Idéalement placée, fraîche en été, vue magnifique, environnement délicieux, tranquillité absolue !
Merci beaucoup pour votre appréciation
au plaisir de vous recevoir à Firminhac pour un nouveau séjour
bien à vous

Belle maison dans une magnifique région
Nous avons découvert l'aveyron qui est une région magnifique. La maison de Madame Castaldo est rénovée et décorée avec goût. Elle était fraîche pendant la canicule et les soirées au coin du feu doivent être agréables l'hiver. Tout est prévu en équipements aussi bien à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur. Elle est très isolée et donc très calme et reposante. Nous avons fait du tourisme un peu tous les jours sans faire plus de 50 kms par jour. Nous conseillons tous les villages perchés, les baignades dans le lot et dans les lacs aménagés, la visite très intéressante de l'espace découverte du barrage qui se trouve à Entraigues (à faire avec ou sans enfants)...
Nous recommandons ce lieu à tous les amoureux de nature, de beaux paysages, de calme.

"tranquillité et propreté"
Une petite maison très confortable et très propre, avec un charme indéniable et une fraîcheur appréciable par temps de canicule. Mme Gastaldo et Mme Galan ont été charmantes et très disponibles. A 10 minutes d'Entraygues, nous avons pu écumer tous les lieux de patrimoine et villages typiques de la région.
Beaucoup de matériel à disposition : barbecue, micro-ondes ...
