About this house rental

Mas de la Rivière, an old Catalan farm, sits on the banks of the river Tet in it’s own oasis of over an acre of mature gardens and is surrounded by vineyards and artichoke fields. It is 1km from the traditional Catalan village of Villelongue de la Salanque, 5 minutes from the beach at the modern beach resort of Canet en Roussillon or St. Marie Plage and 10 minutes from the cosmopolitan city of Perpignan. Despite being in a tranquil setting it is very close to the major link roads into Spain, up to the mountains and down the coast and the glorious mediterranean sea.
At the Mas there are three houses: the owners house built where the stables used to be, the original farmhouse and the converted pumphouse. Each house has its own fenced garden with outdoor eating area, BBQ , lounge chairs etc.. and they share the rest of the grounds including the large swimming pool (12 x 6 m) with a spring board for diving into the 3m deep end. There is a shower room and laundry room for communal use in the grounds. There is a childrens play area including a 3.7m trampoline, basketball and a pingpong table to entertain children as well as teenagers and the not so young. Our latest addition is a petanque pitch, the typical southern french game of boules. The mas is a very safe place for children as it is set well away from the road and there are plenty of safe gardens for them to play in. The houses are fully equipped just like home from home. Internet access is available on site too. There are beach bars, restaurants and beach clubs with stunning views of the sea and mountains. Beach, sea and mountains..mmmmm!

Perpignan: The colourful and exotic city of Perpignan is right on the doorstep . It takes ten minutes by car . It is hard to think how anyone would want for more from a city. It is full of sophisticated shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and music clubs. There are many interesting festivals held in the city during the year. The old quarter of the city is home to several multicultural food markets and full of fascinating Catalan architecture. The icing on the cake is that almost at every turn, the city is full of exotic palm trees.

Roussillon, The Med, The Pyrenees & Spain. This is a truly superb region for any type of holiday you could wish for and at any time of year. Roussillon is the sunniest part of France with app. 320 sunshine days a year with the autumn being a real treat and break from colder parts of Europe. The Med resorts of Canet, Barcares, St.Cyprien and Argeles all with marvellous beaches are all just minutes away. The famous and beautiful Collioure, Ceret and Figueres in Spain are loaded with artistic history. The majestic Pyrenees wrap themselves around Roussillon and tumble into the Med, the lush countryside is quite simply carpeted with sun baked vineyards. If all that was not enough, the lovely Costa Brava of Spain is Roussillon's southern neighbour.

The garden is lovely and there are out door games like table tennis and bocce ball. The FarmHouse was clean but bare and basic for the most part. We had to remove spider webs from corners in the bedrooms and bathrooms when we arrived. It seems that a basic walk through before a guest arrives would be in order. No warmth add anywhere in decor, but could easily be added with little money. Some nicer kitchen towels, bathroom towels and maybe a few rugs so that the house didn't feel so bare and hollow would be nice. The wifi was good and that is VERY important to us with 4 teenagers and staying in contact with the office. Disappointing that the day before we were to check in I received an email asking if we would be needing sheets and towels and that there would be an extra charge for these. I expressed my disappointment and wasn't charged. The sheets and towels we did receive were again VERY basic and well used. Jeni the owner was friendly and offered advice for the area. We were in the area to visit friends. I would recommend this house.

Maison idéale pour un séjour en famille. Un aménagement fonctionnel et complet, un vaste espace de jardin avec sa piscine et ses jeux pour enfants, voilà de quoi passer quelques jours au calme et dans un confort appréciable. Le lieu est idéalement placé, proche des commerces, des plages et de la ville. L’accueil de Jeni et Jean-Pierre est chaleureux et amical, et donne envie de revenir. Un site a essayer sans réserve.

We rented The Pumphouse for a week and cannot wait to return. The friendliness of our hosts was wonderful although they were discreet and totally unobtrusive. The house was everything we expected and more with comfortable furnishings, plenty of area for enjoying the sun and a extremely well equipped kitchen. It is impossible not to fall in love with Casper the cat who adds to the charm and congenial atmosphere of this riverside retreat...and only a ten minute drive from one of the best beaches on this lovely stretch of Mediterranean coast!

I would definitely recommend staying here to everyone. The accommodation was impeccably cleaned and the owners were wonderful. The pool was a major plus point and the sunlit poolside area with sun loungers was lovely. It was easy to spend a day relaxing there with a book. Equally good was the location as Canet beach is a short cycle ride away and Perpignan was great for shopping and restaurants.

We had a wonderful stay in the Pumphouse. The location is excellent - midway between Perpignan and the Mediterranean. The facilities are excellent, and our hosts, Jeni and JP were likewise excellent. So my overall rating would simply be : excellent!

Greatly enjoyed our stay in Chez Pumphouse during the New Year. Despite the cold Northerly winds the Air-Con coped admirably.Superb hospitality and cusine from our Hosts. Complete with bike rides and walks to the coast. There was lost to do with Castles, Vineyards, and pretty village squares for lunch. Must return again in the summer, to try out the Pool.

A lovely traditional French property in a great location. The Pumphouse was perfect for our 2 week stay with our 2 year old son. The pool on site was just right for us when we chose to stay at home; the beaches nearby are all excellent with miles of sand & calm, clear water. Jeni & JP went out of their way to make us welcome & provided lots of little extras to amuse our son. In addition Jeni's cooking was exceptional & really added a special touch to our holiday. We will certainly be back & I would recommend The Pumphouse to friends!

We were immediately impressed with the size, equipment and cleanliness of the gite, grounds and swimming pool, and also the friendly and helpful welcome from the English speaking hosts. We have enjoyed stays in France for almost 15 years, but this stood out. The younger generation immediately suggested we could return next year! The area offers a wide range of activities, the coast being very close indeed, as well as tourist sites and picturesque scenery. Canet en Rousillon is around 15 minutes drive, with a vibrant sea front area including evening market and many restaurants. Recommend jet skiing (we went from St Cyprienne), snorkelling (a dedicated trail located between Banyuls – Cerber) and the vast fort at Salses. We were provided with a lot of leaflets and suggestions, and with free wifi one can easily look on line. After having left, our hosts were more than kind when we then returned for connectivity while travel arrangements were sorted out following a late car breakdown. Could not recommend this more highly.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Pumphouse and found the description really accurate. There was plenty of room for all the family(6 adults and a baby)and we spent many happy hours around the lovely pool and as the other villa was unoccupied it was never crowded. The villa was clean but we felt the patio area outside the villa needed a little TLC. The nearby village was close enough for a pleasant walk in the morning to get delicious bread ect. Jenni, the owner was very friendly and helpful and provided lots of useful information about the area. The nearest beach was only a few minutes by car from the villa and as it was June was never crowded. The area has many attractions and we enjoyed wine tasting and fine dining whilst on our visit. I would recommend this property as it was quiet, far enough away local resorts, but near enough for a visit when you wanted. The sea was gentle enough for bathing and there was lots of free parking.
