Country Kids - Languedoc, France

About this Chic Retreat

Country Kids has created a fantastic formula for both parents and children providing luxurious accommodation alongside excellent childcare & activities in a stunning setting. The farm, Le Mas Pandit is situated in a protected area of natural beauty just 1 hour from Montpellier and 40 minutes from the Mediterranean beaches. What is really great about the set up at Country Kids is that parents really can relax and have a great holiday, knowing their children are having a great time in a safe environment.

Country Kids was chosen as one of the top European resorts for under-fives by the Telegraph.

Accommodation

Country Kids can accommodate 6 families at any one time with the arrival day being a Saturday. The Old Dairy has four 3-bedroomed apartments and a 2-bedroom apartment and The Chestnut House which is a smaller separate cottage with 2 bedrooms. All master bedrooms are light & airy and have huge 2 metre wide king-size beds and the second and third bedrooms have twin beds. There is one exception which has 2 double rooms and a twin room, ideal for 2 families looking to share.

Each apartment has its own hand-built stone & timber kitchen and an outdoor dining area. The kitchens are fully-equipped with large fridge freezers, gas hob cookers with electric ovens, microwaves, dishwashers & washer/dryers. The apartments all enjoy their own private entrance & private terrace. The bathrooms are luxurious & indulgent many with marble floors & large baths. Boutique hotel details have not been forgotten and Ipod docking stations, flat screen TVs (with SKY) and DVDS are all provided. The childrens rooms are really great and come with plenty of toys, books and a selection of children's DVDs and there is complimentary WiFi in all of the apartments.

Activities

The 30 acres surrounding Le Mas Pandit play host to a safety-fenced pool, tennis court, trampolines, table tennis as well as a children's petting farm. Included in the rate are 2 off-site adventure activities which include horse-riding, canoeing, horse & carriage rides, mountain climbing and sailing all of which include tuition or a guide and supervised on-site activities for kids & parents. Families can also enjoy unlimited use of the crèche/kids club which is open 6 days a week.

There is a pizza van that comes to Country Kids on Monday evenings and along with the meals & salads for sale on-site very little cooking is required. Tracey, the wonderful owner and mother of four has thought of everything; your arrival shopping pack includes a basket of fresh vegetables, fruit and staples, and make a shopping list and someone will go to the shops for you while you can enjoy a glass of wine or two! Coffees are free from the capuccino machine at the bar with comfy sofas - which opens for early morning coffee at 7 am and stays open til 11 pm.
