    What our guests say…

    “We booked both Galicia gites for a family holiday including friends, grandparents and kids and had a wonderful time.

    Being so near by car to Duras and supermarkets makes it very convenient, as with a big group you are always shopping! The setting is so stunning with views across the vineyards and farmland, and a very warm welcome is given from owners Catherine and Laurent.

    We were so impressed with the gites; they are very spacious and clean and had everything you could possibly need. The bathrooms are really modern, the beds are really comfortable and everything works really well.

    We managed to use the heated pool every day, as well as the boules court and games barn. The sun loungers and umbrellas are all very good quality. The men of our group used the private fishing lake daily and always caught fish.

    The owners, Catherine and Laurent, were on hand for advice and a friendly hello, but were never intrusive. We definitely hope to return one day.” Clare S (August 2023)
