Domaine De La Tannerie chambres d'hôtes et appartements

My family and I stayed at Domaine De La Tannerie for four nights towards the end of August, having picked it largely on the basis of strong Tripadvisor reviews. We stayed with another family - friends of ours - so we had four adults and four children in total in our group. I'm keen to set the context for my review as I feel it would be a different review had we been staying as a couple for example. The Tannerie itself is really lovely. The building is very nice and the pool area and grounds are very pleasant and well maintained. The rooms are well kept and clean and very much as they appear in the photos on the website and on ***********, if not a little better. The location is excellent. It’s a perfect base for exploring the immediate area and it’s only a short walk from the centre of Prades which offers shops, restaurants and cafes. For us, the element that negatively impacted our stay was the owner. I wish to be clear that in some ways he was definitely helpful. For example he was forthcoming with good advice on what we could do locally in the region. But whilst he was most certainly not rude in any way we just all felt like we weren't made to feel at all welcome. We arrived on our first day on a very hot day. I had actually messaged the owner via *********** (admittedly a good few weeks prior) to advise that our flight was quite early and that we would probably be arriving between 11 and 12. I asked whether an early check-in might be possible to which I received a reply to say that would be okay. We arrived shortly before 11am to find a sign on the door with a phone number which I rang. The owner replied and seemed completely surprised that we were there. He then came to the door and told us the check-in was not until 3 pm. After a long journey and in the heat of the day we were hoping we might be able to use the pool area while we waited for the room to be available but he told us that this was not possible. He said we could leave our bags but we needed to go elsewhere and come back at 3 o’clock. We did not know the area at all so wondered aimlessly up into the town and literally sat in a café before returning at 3 where he greeted us and showed us to our room. He really overly laboured the point that most of his guests were older repeat customers, that the pool area was a very quiet, calm area and that our children had to be quiet and respectful. Given we had booked a family room we thought this was a little bit excessive. Add that to our first contact that morning and as a start it just didn’t set a particularly good tone for the stay. A build up of lots of little things over the next four days combined to ensure that the tone never really improved. The cover was often on the pool in the morning. I noted that it was still on at 9:30 one day and we didn’t feel like we should need to go and ask to have it removed to have a morning swim so I ended up not swimming. There is a hot tub area which remained covered and closed up the entire d

Auf unserer Rennradreise haben wir hier eine Nacht verbracht. Es war fantastisch! Eine wunderbare Location am Rand von Prades. Der Pool ist sehr schön im Innenhof gelegen, die Zimmer sehr liebevoll ausgestattet. Auch das Frühstück enthält hochwertige Produkte. Vielen Dank!

Nous avons passé une semaine au Domaine de la Tannerie avec des amis en chambre d’hôtes, dans un cadre magnifique: joli jardin exotique, piscine à 27/28 degrés, des chambres tres agréables et lumineuses. L’accueil chaleureux de Berengere et Ludovic, leur connaissance des lieux, leur disponibilité (ils s’occupent des réservations si besoin ait), contribuent à la découverte de cette belle région et à un séjour serein. Le petit déjeuner, supervisé par Ludovic, est un vrai festin. Il a même eu la gentillesse de me presser un citron tous les matins. Je recommande ce Domaine et je lui donne la note maximum. Un très grand merci à Berengere et Ludovic et une très belle saison à vous. Michèle.

Il est malheureux de constater que le Domaine de la Tannerie ait offert une expérience aussi décevante. Il est inacceptable que la piscine et le jacuzzi n'aient même pas été ouverts, alors que ces équipements étaient un argument majeur pour cet Airbnb. Le propriétaire nous a expliqué lors de notre arrivée qu'il y avait des restrictions d'eau sauf que le jacuzzi était rempli d'eau (bizarre ?!). La piscine était couverte durant tout le séjour, alors que le propriétaire nous avait dit qu'elle serait accessible (bizarre ?!). Nous aurions préféré avoir l'information lors de notre réservation. Ainsi nous aurions trouvé un autre hébergement avec piscine et jacuzzi... De plus, les chaises d'intérieur étaient dangereuses en raison de l'absence de vis, on est tombés à plusieurs reprises en voulant s'assoir ! Les problèmes avec les appareils électroménagers, tels que le frigo qui fuit et le four qui dégage de la fumée blanche, ainsi que la plancha qui ne fonctionne que d'un côté, sont également préoccupants. Les clients ont le droit de s'attendre à des équipements en bon état de fonctionnement dans leur hébergement, et ce n'est certainement pas le cas au domaine de la Tannerie... Nous ne recommandons pas cet endroit.
