A larger supermarket is a few minutes drive away. Ideal for families to relax by the pool, or take a short (10min) drive to the sandy Mediterranean beaches, visit the interesting coastal villages, museums, art-galleries and historic sites. For hikers and walkers the Alberes hills are on the doorstep.

The entrance hall leads to a large open-plan lounge/dining/kitchen area. The lounge is furnished with sofas and armchairs to comfortably seat 8, and is equipped with flat-screen TV (French and UK channels), DVD player, radio and wireless broadband internet. It has reversible air-conditioning to keep the room cool in the hot summer months or heat it in the cooler months, and also a cosy wood-burning stove. The dining table seats 8 and you'll find a generous amount of crockery, cutlery and glasses in the storage unit. From the dining area patio doors lead to the terrace, garden and pool. The dining area is separated from the kitchen by a granite-topped breakfast bar with additional bar-stool seating. In the kitchen you'll find a full oven (electric), ceramic hob, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, kettle, toaster, microwave, filter coffee machine, blender and plenty of pans and cooking utensils. There's also an automatic washing machine.

Off the lounge is the ground floor double (=KING) bedroom and its en-suite shower room with basin, WC, bidet and shower cubicle. On the ground floor there is also a separate WC, and a second sitting area with French doors to the terrace and stairs leading to the first floor. Upstairs you'll find a double aspect double (=KING) bedroom with patio doors onto the jasmine covered balcony with views of the Alberes Hills, the Pyrenees and across the plain towards Perpignan and the coast, a twin (=2 SINGLES) bedroom with views to the old part of the village of Laroque and towards the coast, and the family bathroom with basin, WC, bidet and bath with shower over.
