L'ANNEXE. Tranquille bungalow / gîte dans les collines au-dessus de Begur avec une vue imprenable

Net als vorig jaar hebben we een heerljjke tijd gehad in the Annex.Het huis is compleet, niks ontbreekt..Het uitzicht aan de ene kant en de tuin met het terras aan de andere kant van het huis zijn fantastisch! Roger is een goede gastheer en daarbij heeft hij ons heerlijke tomaatjes gebracht uit eigen tuin. Begur is via de trappen 10 minuten naar beneden lopen en dat is fijn als je een hapje wil eten in het dorp.

We enjoyed two very relaxing weeks in this location with its amazing garden. Roger was all the time helpful and he knows all the beautiful locations and beaches. The house is very well equipped and clean, with a beautiful view either in the garden or on opposite site to the sea. It takes you just a couple of minutes downtown and some minutes longer to climb back the hill. We definitely plan to come back at another time. Jörg und Sieglinde

This Annex is a definite home from home and is equipped with everything you would ever need .

We really enjoyed our stay at the Annex.

Begur and the Costa brava are very pretty, with the coves and small resorts, not to mention the food. We also visited Cadaques, where we had camped in 1977, can remember some of it but it had obviously changed a lot.

The bungalow, garden and views, were exceptional but the drive is a bit steep, even so I managed it ok, even with hand controls. There were many extras to what we normally get, including a bottle of bubbly and it was the first time we have not had to clean before leaving, which is a great bonus.

I managed ok being disabled, but there are a few things that we had a bit of difficulty with. Outside it was difficult to get from the car to the bungalow in the loose gravel. We just managed in my wheelchair, but my scooter which is normally ok in firm gravel, just got stuck. A small path to where one got out of the car would suffice. I also found it a bit difficult with my frame on the patio, due to its unusual slope. Inside was great apart from a couple of things in the bathroom. I found the shower too difficult to use, due to having to step over the frame at the front and being a small area. The alternative of washing at the washbasin was also awkward as I couldn't get my knees under the front, when sitting in my wheelchair. A pull down rail to the opposite side of the toilet to the wall would also help, although I did manage with the wall rail. It would all depend how much you are disabled.

However we really enjoyed the stay and as I say there is always a way [well nearly always] and if I had known about the problems I may not have come and missed out on a lovely holiday.

We stayed for 4 nights in early October and enjoyed good weather.

Booking and communications were easy/clear with Nicola looking after all the admin. Roger is on hand next door and was very helpful with advice about the area; he is not intrusive and we felt very relaxed there.

The Annex is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The bungalow is very clean and well prepared; plenty of towels (including beach towels) and toiletries. The area is very quiet and peaceful.

We have no hesitation in recommending the Annex as a base for touring the local coves, Cap Roig and Figueres (Dali Museum). There is an excellent choice of restaurants in Begur, though if walking, the return journey involves a steep climb. The local roads (even into the local coves) are surprisingly good. We had no problems with parking at this time of year, though it can be a different story in peak season.

Thankyou Roger for your hospitality and Nicola for effective communications
