MAS LA TAILLEDE
An old sheepfold, with a swimming pool and a breathtaking view, with Nordic baths, and a shaded terrace.
The family history of the mas is to be discovered in its pretty photo album which traces the conversion of this old sheepfold into a place dedicated to well-being. Ali and his family will take you to discover the swimming spots in the river and on the surrounding paths. The swimming pool with its breathtaking view, the Nordic baths or the sauna will know how to recharge your batteries. Don't forget to relax in the reading room or on one of the shaded terraces that invite you to laze around. Up there, the energies are soft and benevolent, the welcome is from the heart.

Members' reviews on MAS LA TAILLEDE
The ratings and reviews below reflect the subjective opinions of members and not the opinion of The Little Witty.
From the moment we arrived, it exceeded all of our expectations.
The rooms are of the highest standard,beautiful, spacious, and spotlessly clean.
The location itself is absolutely breathtaking, surrounded by nature and perfect for getting away from it all.
The hosts were incredible, warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail, making sure we had everything we needed to create an unforgettable experience.
My clients couldn’t stop talking about how amazing everything was, the space, the atmosphere, and the overall sense of peace and connection we felt.
If you’re thinking about hosting a retreat or even just getting away for a few days, I can’t recommend this place enough.
It’s a special place that brings out the best in people and I know we’ll be back!
Something to note:- the 10 minute very bumpy track up to the house means that you are unlikely to go out each day, but more positively forces you to slow down and enjoy the relaxing environment. Overall though a very special stay (worthy of my 40th celebrations) and we would definitely come back for another visit in future!
The location is exquisite, nestled above the clouds in the French Pyrenees and an oasis of calm and gentle quietude that Ali & Matt have created up here.
We spent the week practicing yoga, meditation and chanting with our gracious retreat leader Audrey, fed like gods by our chef Clara, open-hearted massage by Audrey the onsite masseur and our fabulous host & hiking guide Ali who so kindly shared her knowledge and passion for the area and her flock of animals. The hike with the donkeys was a particular highlight, as was jumping in the rather chilly mountain river!
I can't leave a review without mentioning the animals as they play a large part of La Taillede's charm. Biquette the goat was entertaining, as was Lovely the cat - a constant companion, and Apollo and Tai the dogs our comrades when we left the farm, with or without Ali.
The cosy warm fires and choice of hot tubs and sauna as well as a refreshing dips in the pool, made the stay so much more pleasurable.
The gite I shared was warm and cosy, especially with the fire lit and the other gite where we ate and the yurt where we sometimes practiced yoga were delightful. Ali and Matt's attention to detail, above and beyond hosting and hard work over the last 10 years make this place such an incredible haven that I'm in 2 minds whether leaving such a raving review is such a good idea!
Thanks to you all for such an extraordinary week, and I would love to return one way or another in the future.
