Benefit from peace an quiet of nature

The town of "Laroque des Albères" is located about 10 km from the Spanish border.
You can of course reach LdA by car, or it would also be possible to arrive by plane. There are various airlines - regular and low-cost airlines - that take off to Girona -GRO- (Gerona in Spanish) on the Costa Brava (Spain).
Airplanes from Germany fly, for example, from Hamburg, Hanover, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt-Hahn, Frankfurt am Main, Nuremberg, Stuttgart, Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden and Memmingen. From Girona it takes a little over an hour to get to the holiday home in a rental car.
Laroque des Albéres is a small, cozy town - at the foot of the Pyrenees. Romantic streets, shops, restaurants and cafés invite you to linger.
The holiday home is located about 2 km outside the center of LdA, embedded on a 10,000 sqm natural property on different levels with trees and bushes. Relaxation is very important here.
The house and pool were newly renovated in 2022/23. Both offer a lot of space and are ideal for 1-2 families. From the house you have a direct view of the spacious garden with lots of greenery, with the Pyrenees visible in the background.
On the ground floor of the house there is a large living/dining room with a modern, open kitchen as well as three bedrooms - for a total of 6 people - and two bathrooms with shower/sink/toilet.
The upper floor can be reached via a staircase from the living room. It is equipped with 2 bedrooms - a total of 4 people - and another bathroom with shower/sink/toilet. From the hallway a door leads to a balcony. This is a good place, for example, if you want to retreat for a short time.
In addition to a spacious terrace, there is also an additional outdoor kitchen with a sink and worktop. There is a gas grill in another room, which rounds off the comfort. Another barbecue area with a charcoal grill and seating can be found on the property not far from the house.
There is also another bathroom outside with a shower and toilet for even more luxury.
Parking for 4-5 cars is available behind the house.
Shops can be found in just a few minutes by car.
Rental of bed linen/towels is possible for €18/person. Pool heating is also possible. Here the price is 120 €/week.
Both are explained in detail in the travel confirmation that you will receive separately from Erika Lenk after your booking.

Very well equipped house
There were only two of us staying in this huge house for a month, so we did not use most of the facilities. The kitchen had everything you could want, including a fridge with ice maker. Jut a word of warning: the beautiful pool is VERY slippery at the shallow end and with no hand rail you must take extra care. Our satnav told us we had arrived, but the entrance gates are about another half a mile down the road. We went to Spain midweek in September and it was a nightmare journey with traffic queued nose to tail both ways. The journey took more than two hours each way. Going into the shopping centre was just like the January sales in Oxford Street, and despite the huge car park, people were fighting for spaces. We made a hasty exit and drove further south where we managed to do all our shopping with no hassle. Alcohol in Spain is a third cheaper than in France and you should stock up in quantity to avoid a return trip across the border. The weather was changeable, sometimes very hot and sometimes very cloudy but we still managed to swim most days. All in all a very pleasant four weeks which we would recommend to anyone wanting peace and quiet.

Perfect house in a beautiful location
We had the most wonderful time staying in this property. The hosts were absolutely amazing, we arrived very late due to the traffic but Mme Ribere Andrée was absolutely fantastic. She was very welcoming and even helped us get food as it was so late. We contacted her a few times and she was amazing, always so helpful and kind. The pool is a dream, so much bigger than the pictures show, the children loved playing there and its a good length for adults to swim too.The house is just perfect, we had 3 families staying together but still had so much space. Having so many bedrooms and bathrooms meant we could all have our own spaces. The kitchen is very clean and well equipped its great for families and cooking big means. The children loved the garden, everyday they would go on an adventure and feed the fish. It was such a peaceful garden, if you love nature its perfect. We loved it here and would definitely come back. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home, it made our holiday extra special.

Très belle villa dans un très bel endroit
Nous sommes ravis de notre séjour dans cette villa à Laroque fin juillet. La communication avant le séjour était facile et claire, l'accueil simple et efficace. La villa est très agréable, très bien équipée, nous avons particulièrement apprécié la piscine et le grand terrain au calme. L'installation de moustiquaires pourrait peut-être être envisagée. La région est splendide, il y a de nombreuses choses à faire/découvrir.

. Mme RIbere qui nous à accueilli est d' une efficacité remarquable et avec le sourire. Elle a régler très rapidement des problèmes de dimensions et de règlement de linge de lit qui ne correspondaient pas aux renseignements que l'on avaient reçu Bravo madame Ribèrel La communication est rendue difficile par des problèmes de langue propriétaire Danoise, intermédiaire Allemande. Malgré un BBQ inutilisable et 2 poeles hors d' usage, nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la belle maison de madame Marianne JENSEN et bien profité de la grande piscine

Great house with a lot of privacy
In spite of pouring rain the first 4 days of our week in the South of France, my family and I had a good vacation in this charming house. The house is exactly as in the ad. It is very well furnished, the kitchen is equipped with everything you need. The bathroom is new and very nice. The fireplace warms the place up. The yard is amazing - it is huge and looks like a park or a forest. It has it's own lake and a small river. The boys could run along uninterrupted. It is also very private, with no immediate neighbours lurking into the house. It is located 25 mins walk from the center of the village so keep in mind that you need a car for everything. The communication with Erika and the house keeper Mme Ribere was excellent. Minor things that could be improved: the internet was quite weak. I guess normally you would not need internet but for us with the rain we had to entertain ourselves :) The cushions could also be replaced. All in all - we recommend that place and we will probably return in the future.

une grande maison au calme
La maison est tout à fait conforme à la description. Grand jardin, au calme car pas de voisins à proximité, on a vraiment l'impression d'être seuls. La maison est bien entretenue et très propre. Des travaux importants ont été faits récemment (une cuisine neuve, la piscine entièrement refaite et la terrasse autour de la piscine). Elle est aussi bien équipée: vaisselle, rangements, barbecue, douche extérieure, cuisine d'été... La personne qui gère la maison sur place est très réactive et nous a bien aidé en cas de besoin. Les contacts avec la propriétaire ont aussi très agréables. Bref, c'était parfait. Reste une impression de calme, de repos et de détente... on a adoré

Dass ein Objekt dieser fragwürdigen Qualität als Angebot einer „Premium-Gastgeberin“ gilt, hat uns überrascht. Wir betrachten es als eine Irreführung. Über durchgelegene Matratzen, desolate Schiebeschränke und fehlende Fliegennetze an den Fenstern der Schlafzimmer mag man hinwegsehen – auch über den Haus-internen Stromausfall und einen Wasserrohrbruch (der nicht repariert wurde). Als wertmindernd zu betrachten ist aber: Teile des Grundstücks, insbesondere im Pool-Bereich, befanden sich in einem erbärmlichen Zustand. Gerade in der Nähe der Pool-, aber auch der (zu schmalen) Haus-Terrasse fehlt eine Grasnarbe nahezu vollständig; man sitzt buchstäblich im Dreck. Der Terrassenbereich um den Pool befindet sich in einem Zustand der Verwahrlosung (von Unkraut überwucherte Rabatten; Pflanzen, die mit scharfen Dornen in die Wege der Terrasse hineinragen und gerade für Kinder eine Gefahr darstellen). Die Pool-Terrasse zieren zerbrochene Natursteinplatten mit scharfen Ecken; fehlende Natursteinplatten haben Löcher hinterlassen, in denen Kinderfüße verschwinden; eine bis zu zwei Zentimetern hohe aufgebrochene Natursteinkante zieht sich über die Terrasse hinweg und lädt zum Stolpern ein. Für Kinder stellt diese Terrasse eine Gefahrenquelle dar. Dreckige Liegen mussten von uns selbst gereinigt werden. Der Grill der Sommerküche erwies sich als nicht funktionsfähig (kurz nach In-Gebrauchnahme stiegen hohe Flammen auf). Im Pool fanden wir eine gehörige Portion Glasscherben vor.
