Terres de France - les Hameaux de Pomette

Our holiday was a package holiday organised through LoveHolidays. Cazals is located about 3 hours drive from Bordeaux Airport and there was no transfer available with the package. So the remote location of Cazals is an issue to consider. Hameaux De Pomette is a small site. There is a Reception area, but opening hours are very limited. The accommodation was excellent. I would have like an oven in the kitchen but this is a minor item. The premises were clean and other than the oven issue, well equipped. However, the fee for bedlinen and towels was an unexpected expense. As was the cleaning fee. The person on duty has extremely limited English and whilst they made every effort in using a translator app, I found it difficult to make anything other than straightforward queries. So, if you have good French language skills, this is not an issue. If you do not, as is the case with me, you might find this frustrating. Also, the site is based on a hill. Not an issue for me, but definitely an issue for the rest of my family - our accommodation was based almost at the top of the hill. Again, this is more than likely something outside the control of those operating the site - with the minited size of the site, it would have been difficult to move us to a location closer to the bottom of the hill. Nonetheless, the fact that the site is based on a hill may be a factor to people with limited mobility. The site has a good sized swimming pool and we made a lot of use of it - definitely a very positive feature of the site. The site is located about 2km from Cazals, a small village which is an absolute pleasure to visit. The village has a reasonable sized supermarket, chemist, several restaurants and a regular market. As mentioned previously, Cazals is remote. If you have a car, dont mind a long drive from the airport and appreciate excellent countryside and lovely quaint French villages and you are looking for a nice relaxing holiday (and not looking for high octane thrills, clubbing etc), and you have good French language skills, this is an excellent holiday. My family enjoyed their stay. However, the constraints imposed by our package holiday (i.e. a very expensive and long transfer from Bordeaux Airport) and the language issues detracted from our holiday.

Apporter un ventilateur. Il a fait super beau et la piscine a combler nos après midi ! Malheureusement il n’y a pas d’animations c’est dommage. Le secteur est si calme c’est dépaysant ! La gérante est chaleureuse et arrangeante. Par contre gros bémol la ventilation et la côte pour aller au chalet !
