Fully Equipped House with Marvelous View
A very nice fully equipped house, with marvelous views. You will enjoy the view 24 hours a day: watch the sunset with your drink in one hand, admire Pyrenees as long as there is day light and wonder what people do in all these houses down the hill - in the evening. Believe me, the view is really perfect - we bought the house for it! Our house will comfortably accommodate a large family of 10+a baby (our real maximum is 13 people – if you are close) or 2 smaller families. But it is also perfect for 3-4 couples traveling together or can serve as a romantic getaway for just 2. It is a good place for anyone who wants to avoid the expence and bustle of fashionable resorts such as Nice or Chamonix. 2 bedrooms on the first floor, (1 with queen size bed, 1 with twin beds), wardrobes in each. Dining-sitting room, dining space for 10. A separate kitchen, a bathroom and a separate WC. 2 bedrooms on the ground floor ( 1 with a queen size bed, 1 with a double bed and a sofa-bed for 1 person), wardrobes in each. Sitting room with a double sofa-bed. Shower room and a separate WC. The house has 2 entrances so you can divide early birds from those who sleep until 12 o'clock. There is a games room on the ground floor where you can play table tennis. And another 2 persons can sleep here on a comfortable double sofa-bed. The property is fenced, both the garden and the house are safe for children. And our garden which is a real sun trap and also has a BBQ corner, offers great view! So just come and enjoy! There are so many things to do all year round, for all ages that I wonder why people need TV? Though we have 2...

Halfway between Sea and Ski
Our holiday home is situated halfway between the Mediterranean Sea and 5-6 Pyrenean Ski resorts. All this and a lot more can be reached within 30-50 minutes. Believe me you will love the view - we bought the house for it! The house contains six rooms on two floors, 135 square meters. It is ideal for family reunions (can sleep up to 13 people – if you are really close). But it’s also perfect as a shared accommodation for 3-4 couples traveling together, and is cozy enough for just two. A separate entrance to each of 2 floors. The road from Perpignan is lined with apple, peach and apricot orchards that start blossoming in March - that's a view! The town centre, a 10-minute stroll, has a lot of restaurants - well worth visiting - and all the necessary shops, banks and ATMs, 2 very good supermarkets and one organic supermarket, selling a huge variety of whole foods and local organic wine. There is a large municipal swimming pool and tennis courts in town.

Prades is Activity Heaven
Prades is an activity heaven all year round. Skiing (December-March) - at 5 or 6 Pyrenean resorts (low cost, great quality) that could be reached in 40 min but you can also enjoy it at Col de Jau, the smallest skiing resort in Europe in 15 km from Prades (2 downhill ski pistes, cross-country ski, snowshoe walking). Swimming – at 5-6 sea resorts (45 km to Canet plage) or at the lake Vinca (10 km) - good also for surfing and sailing. Or you can swim in warm waters at the thermal spas of St. Thomas-les-Bains - against the backdrop of the mountains. Another 2 spas in 6 km. There are 3 golf courses nearby, 15 min to the closest (9 holes), 4 natural reserves within easy reach - ideal for walkers. Animal Park at Les Angles, 2 adventure parks (6 km) will keep your whole family busy for quite a time. Also waiting for you are medieval fortresses and abbeys, Yellow Train, Picasso, Matisse, Dali masterpieces in local museums, music festivals and a lot of wine! And Prades holds weekly market.

How to Get There
By air: Our house is only 40 km from the airport of Perpignan. There are also 5 other airports within a 3 -hour drive: Girona, Carcassone, Montpellier, Barcelona, and Toulouse. By railway: You can use Eurostar and TGV to Perpignan. And once you've got here - you can either use the local railway to Prades (the station is in 700 m from the house) or hire a car (there is a garage in the house and also a parking space in front of the gate). In any case that won't take you more than 45 minutes - during the busiest time of the season. By car: we are only 1 km away from N116, linked with the A9 Motorway from Barcelona to central France.
