Guestbook
Great holiday home and a fabulous area to visit. Phill not only provided us with comfortable holiday accommodation but also a steady suppy of information to ensure that our holiday was truly memorable. The James Family Oct. 2007 - Powys
Having stayed at Maison-Limoux for a total of 6 weeks during 2005 and 9 further weeks during 2006 we decided to buy in the area. We therefore fully recommend both the house and the area. Limoux is a charming town with very friendly people, they are some of the most helpful that we have met, throughout our many years of touring Europe. B & M Milne - Essex -updated March 2007
Each time I visit I discover more reasons to come back time after time. J. Wyatt - Bristol
Immortalised on video eating & drinking on the patio. Sitting out late into the evening whilst sampling the local wine is just some of our favourite moments of a great holiday. G & P Prior - Suffolk
