Estada a Les Peyrots

Un lloc molt recomanable per la traquilitat del poble, pel paisatge i per la gite. Una gite molt completa, neta, acollidora .I per les opcions de caminades i visites ( bosc de belesta, castells, pobles de l'entorn..)

Gîte Ariège

Excellent gîte, spacieux et frais par jours de fortes chaleurs. Un lieu à faire si vous aimez les randonnées : Le pic de Saint Barthélémy. Et, proche du gîte, la Croix de Millet. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour, merci !

Beau gîte

Endroit très tranquille proche des commodités et bien placé pour la visite de plusieurs sites cathares intéressant. Proche du lac de Montbel pour la baignade. Petites ballades en bord de rivière au départ du gîte

Excellent séjour

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour à les Peyrots et notamment la fraîcheur du gîte et sa proximité avec de multiples possibilités d'activités aquatiques ou de montagne. C'est un atout d'autant que l'Ariège est un lieu peu fréquenté à découvrir! Nous recommendons donc fortement! On se sent très vite chez soi dans le gîte avec toutes les commodités nécessaires. Et merci à nos hôtes pour leur accueil et leur compréhension.
