EXCELLENT Based on 29 reviews frau mau2024-05-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir haben eine Woche in dem wunderschönen Haus von Anya und Axel verbracht. Die beiden sind Aussteiger aus Deutschland und haben das Haus vor ca. drei Jahren übernommen. Die beiden sind wirklich perfekte Gastgeber. Es fehlte uns an nichts und wenn doch, dann war es nie ein Problem zu fragen und sich etwas auszuleihen. Absolutes Highlight für uns war das üppig ausgestattete und liebevoll eingerichtete Spielzimmer. Die Kinder konnten sich so gut selbst beschäftigen und trotzdem hatte man sie im Blick. Das Haus war sehr sauber und die Badezimmer sind ganz neu. Alles ist wirklich liebevoll renoviert worden. Die Küche ist perfekt ausgestattet, man findet hier keine ausrangierten Küchengeräte sondern eine Küche wie man sie zuhause auch einrichten würde. Der Pool ist nur über eine abschließbare Tür erreichbar, der Garten hat ein Klettergerüst und ein Riesen Schach, üppige Wiesen und viele Schattenplätze. Das Haus ist gut mit dem Auto erreichbar, Supermärkte und Bäcker findet man in den nächsten Orten. Wir haben Tagesausflüge ans Meer, nach Narbonne und Carcassonne gemacht. Ein wirklich tolles Ferienhaus für Familien oder große Gruppen mit oder ohne Kids/Hunden. Man ist absolut unter sich und trotzdem sind die Gastgeber jederzeit erreichbar. Maison Tranquil ist ein absoluter Geheimtipp den ich wärmstens weiterempfehlen kann! Danke an Anya und Axel! Wir kommen im nächsten Jahr definitiv wieder.

Jonas Braun2023-11-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 Sterne von mir. Wunderbare Lage, tolles Haus, frische Kräuter im Garten, entspannte Atmosphäre - unbedingt empfehlenswert. Ashley Grove2023-11-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was our fourth stay at Maison Tranquil and each time we enjoy it more. I run Birdwatching holidays for my business (www.experiencenature.co.uk), but like to do things differently to other companies, so Maison Tranquil gives us the perfect base to do just that. We are able to host a group in this quiet location which has a lot of interesting local wildlife around the lake, in the woodland and surrounding countryside, but we are also in easy reach of Carcassonne for some history, several vineyards for wine tasting and much more besides. My wife Wendy cooks for the group and she really enjoys the spacious and well equipped kitchen here. We also love that the house has so many areas to relax and we enjoy evenings on the covered patio talking through our days activities with a glass of wine and of course the heated outdoor pool is another bonus. We already have a full group to return again in 2024 and are discussing dates for 2025, we can't get enough of Maison Tranquil and this lovely area of Southern France. Thank you Anya and Axel, keep up the good work! Tom Kadoc2023-07-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Parfait KORA Media2023-07-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Work-Life im ursprünglichen Frankreich! Wir waren als Firma im Mai für eine Woche im Maison Tranquil. Auf einem Grundstück, dass sich in einer idyllischen Landschaft im Vorland der Pyrenäen befindet. Das große Ferienhaus bietet genug Platz, um sich mit dem Team kreativ zu entfalten. Die riesige Küche lädt zum Kochen ein. Der Blick auf den malerischen See regt zu einem gemeinsamen Spaziergang in der Natur an. Auf dem Weg zum erfrischenden Pool kann man mit allen Sinnen die Farben und Düfte des Kräutergartens wahrnehmen. Auf der Terrasse kann man mit einem köstlichen Glas Wein den Abend ausklingen lassen. Die Zimmer sind alle sehr sauber und die Bäder neu saniert. Die gesamte Atmosphäre ermöglichte uns eine perfekte Mischung zwischen Erholung und Business. Diese einzigartige Erfahrung weit weg vom Alltag schweißte uns als Team noch mehr zusammen. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder und bedanken uns für die tolle Zeit bei den lieben Gastgebern Anya & Axel. Jan K. & Team von KORA Media Thomas Blaesing2023-07-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Vielen Dank für die wunderschöne Zeit an diesem einzigartigen Ort der Ruhe. Anja und Axel haben ihr Ferienhaus mit allem Komfort eingerichtet, ich habe mich sofort wohl gefühlt und meinen Aufenthalt genießen können. Die Umgebung mit vielen leicht erreichbaren Sehenswürdigkeiten wie Carcassonne, Rennes la Chateau, Weingüter n und liebenswerten kleinen Dörfern ist wunderbar. Ich komme gern wieder... Danke für die schönen Tage. Robert Shaw2023-06-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Anya and Axel for an amazing stay! We had such a wonderfully relaxing time at Maison Tranquil, truly one of the best properties we have ever had for a large group on holiday. We could have stayed at the villa forever. The setting and amenities were wonderful, the pool fantastic, kitchen amazing and there's so much to do in the local area. Thanks for helping us get the most from the trip in so many ways. We enjoyed a great tour and tasting at the beautiful Domain Gayda vineyard with an absolutely amazing set lunch menu in the stunning restaurant (loved the Viognier and Chemin de Moscou). A day out in Carcasonne of course. And so many charming days spent cooking and laughing together at Maison Tranquil. Beautiful memories to last a lifetime. We'll certainly be back.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
