About this cottage rental
Set in just under an acre, Mas Mimosa with 2 separate gites, benefits from being in the rural outskirts of Perpignan but only a 20 min walk through the pretty park to the beautiful & historic city, with all its delightful bars and restaurants to sample. Just a 10 minute drive are the glorious sandy beaches by the safe non-tidal Mediterranean sea.
The Old Barn and Le Cerisier are gites attached to our 150 year old Catalan Mas. They are stone built and have exposed beams & rafters. Open plan lounge/dining room areas with fireplaces, comfy sofas, TV, DVD stereo/cd player. Fully equipped kitchens to cater for your every need.
Why not rent both and bring extended families, total capacity would be 10 plus a baby.
Outside there is private terrace space for each, with hand built traditional Catalan BBQ, table,chairs and parasol.. Beautiful mature gardens with swings/slide/seesaw, & a giant Jenga, safe & secluded from the road. Tables & chairs are provided here & there amid the trees for you to chill out. The terraces and gardens are lit up at night for al fresco dining in the warm evenings.
Shady peaceful summer kitchen with lockable double french doors opening to poolside, with BBQ, fridge, & utility room with sink, shower, toilet & washing machine for use of all guests.
The stunning secluded 13.5m x 6m pool, private for occupants of both gites, is family orientated, with perimeter overflow & roman steps. The segregated toddler pool is only 40cm deep and enables little ones to get in & out on their own, encouraging confidence in the water. Huge relaxing decking area with sunbeds, parasols, tables & chairs , security gate & fence. We use a salt disinfection system, kind to skin and eyes, no chlorine smell or taste. Red squirrels & birds come & drink from the pool. The peaceful secluded gardens are a haven to many species of birds, including exotic Hoopoes from Africa.
We provide toys for the children in the summer kitchen area , and pool toys for the little ones

We really enjoyed our stay at this thoughtfully put together traditional gite with BBQ, pool and parking. This location is for those familiar with France, independent, and able to enjoy all of the area, coming home to s beautiful pool.

We booked pre-covid& had several late changes of flights/dates as a result. Sue was great at keeping in touch& being flexible while we resolved this.
The accommodation was well equipped, particularly liked the BBQ area and outside spaces to eat. The courtyard was beautifully maintained& looked lovely when lit at night. The pool was exceptional with plenty of space to relax. Sue&Steve were excellent hosts, very available, friendly& informative about the area. The property is well located for both Perpignan & the beaches, Pyrenees etc. Great seafood available nearby. We felt we would have liked longer to fully explore all the area has to offer.
Hope to return at some point in the future.
