About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Large house (6 bedrooms) in the heart of a medieval village in Vallespir (Pyrenees)

La Lyre, our large 19th century family home nestled in the heart of a small medieval village, welcomes you to enjoy the bright sunshine and clean Pyrenean air in the refreshing shade of its century-old wisteria. The house is ideally placed with walking access to all amenities (e.g. bakery/café, butcher, supermarket) and by car to the nearby thermal baths of Amélie les Bains and Prats de Mollo. We offer discounts to holidaymakers who stay 3+ weeks.

The house is completely renovated to a high standard with all modern conveniences including mesh wifi, excellent insulation and double glazing, heating and air conditioning (in the main living areas).
The fully equipped open-plan kitchen and BBQ have everything you need to fully enjoy the large terrace under the coolness of the wisteria, even in the middle of summer.
In addition to 2 TVs with Netflix/Chromecast, there is a trampoline, an inflatable wading pool and plenty of books, toys and board games to keep the whole family entertained.

In the village there are many hikes (the GR10 passes behind the house), cycle paths, horse riding, basketball and tennis courts, playground, swimming pool, gym and spa (Canigó Sports and Nature South Centre).

The house is easily accessible on the axis that runs through the village. It is located one floor above the street via a staircase. You can access all parts of the house shown in the photos as well as the terrace. A free parking space is available on site.

Please NOTE:

Additional charges must be applied for bed linen and towels. These VARY depending on the size of the group and the length of stay. Due to the constraints of the platform, they will be counted separately and personally. Please contact us directly.

During the high season we only accept bookings for 1 week starting on Saturday.

There is a large staircase to access the main door of the house. This house is not suitable for people with reduced mobility. Please review the floor plan to ensure that the layout of the rooms is suitable for your group. For example:
- The 3rd bedroom is accessible via the second bedroom only. The second bedroom has direct access to the terrace.

The house faces the old Romanesque church of the village.

The large terrace is sunny almost all day and is covered with artificial grass and stones. The lower terrace is shaded by wisteria. There is no natural garden.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Top séjour entre amis

Bon contact avec Mélissa, lieu qui correspond parfaitement à l'annonce, maison avec toute les commodités !!! Garage en dessous est un plus .Il faut bien souligner que malheureusement la maison est sur la route principale avec beaucoup de passages en journée et au pied d'un magnifique clocher qui peut déranger certaines personnes...

Excellent Séjour

Nous avons passé de superbes vacances d'été en famille. La maison est exceptionnelle avec ses 6 chambres. Mon papa ne supportant pas la chaleur, il a pu se ressourcer à l'étage dans le salon climatisé, nous ne la mettions même pas en bas mais elle fonctionne très bien. Beaucoup d'équipements, de vaisselle, tout est pensé pour fonctionner en famille nombreuse. De 3 ans à 60 ans en passant par les ados, chacun a pu se créer des merveilleux souvenirs en famille. Presque tous les repas ont été pris dehors sur la terrasse, magnifique quand le soleil n'est pas plus là au passage ;) Merci à vous de nous avoir fait confiance.

Grande maison bien équipée mais vraiment bruyante

La terrasse au dessus de la départementale (tres passante surtout a l'heure du petit dejeuner et de l'apero) et le clocher qui sonne toutes les heures gachent un peu le plaisir et ecourtent les nuits.. Tres bon accueil de Melissa qui a repondu tres rapidement a toites nos demandes /questions

La Lyre

La casa se llama la Lyre y es armoniosa como la música de una lira . Espaciosa ideal para ir con amigos en pareja porque cada uno tiene su espacio de habitación con baño amplio y las zonas comunes cocina comedor y sobretodo el delicioso porche y graaann terraza es la alegria. Gracias también por permitir ir con mi perro que ha estado feliz en la inmensa terraza de césped . Felicitamos a la propiedad por la cuidada reforma de la casa cuyo interior está con mucho gusto pero sobretodo pensada y estructurada con respeto aprovechando inteligentemente los espacios . Nuestro deseo es volver pronto . Margaret

grande maison de village

Située au coeur du village d'Arles sur tech, cette maison est composée de 2 grands appartements reliés entre eux. Très bon double vitrage qui permet d'atténuer le bruit de la départementale traversant le village. Terrasse avec magnifique glycine!
