Wonderful, Relaxing Holiday
We spent 2.5 weeks at this lovely property called En Doucet. Julia and Bastiaan are great hosts, very kind and helpful and go beyond what is expected. They have two teenage children who must be the most polite, respectful and quietest teenagers in the world! The gite itself is very rural - the nearest restaurants and shops are around 20 mins away so a car is essential. The gite is well equipped and has everything you need and the pool area is very relaxing with the pool itself being very cooling on a lovely hot day. If you can drag yourself away from the beautiful, peaceful gite and its surroundings, there are plenty of pretty villages and activities to do in this area. The nearby town of L'isle Jourdain has everything you need in the way of shopping, eating and relaxing. All in all, En Doucet is a lovely place to spend your holiday. We tend to try a different area of France every year but if we didn't do this we would definitely return to En Doucet.

Entspannung und Abwechslung in der französischen Provinz
Ländlich, erholsam und abwechslungsreich war unser einwöchiger Aufenthalt. Dank der Tipps der sympathischen Vermieter konnten wir mit unseren drei Kindern tolle Eindrücke sammeln: Tagesausflug nach Toulouse, ein Feuerwerk im Nachbarort und als Highlight eine Wanderung in den Pyrenäen (die Fahrtzeit zwei Stunden einfach hat sich gelohnt.) Zwischendrin haben wir uns am Haus und im Pool erholt. Die ironische Begrüßung "Welcome in the middle of nowhere" hat sich schnell relativiert. Wir sind sehr froh, dass wir diesen Abstecher in das ländliche Frankreich unternommen haben.

About the host

Hosted by Julia & Bastiaan van Griensven

Host profile image
We ( Julia and Bastiaan) moved from the UK to France in 2010. Bastiaan works in the aerospace industry in Toulouse and Julia is a former BBC journalist. Having grown up in rural settings in the UK and the Netherlands we bought this old farmhouse in 2015 to get back to our roots but keep a connection to city life.

Why they chose this property

The gite is in a very quiet and rural setting and gives an immediate sense of being able to rest. There is plenty of shade under mature trees (important in this part of the world) and the pool provides opportunity to cool off. It is wonderful to be able to relax and for instance read surrounded only by the sounds of farmers looking after their land. But, for those who like it, it is possible to visit a beautiful big city within a 35 minutes drive. For us, this place provides the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

Early in morning, on clear days a view of the pyrenees provides an instant sense of space and beauty. This may be repeated at sunset and, followed by a magnificent night sky.
