A truly unique place
We were a group of 3 families (6 adults, 7 children) and had a wonderful week at La Haute Porte last summer - it's the sort of place you could stay for weeks and only need to go out as you've run out of supplies, the grounds are huge and there are so many onsite activities to do. The house itself is enormous with several indoor sitting rooms and a large indoor dining area that we used quite a lot due to the rainy weather that week. The pool area is absolutely superb, surrounded by a variety of fruit trees and is very safe for children as it has an electric cover and is gated and locked with a key. There is also a basement laundry area that came in very handy.
The sleeping accommodation is plentiful mainly on the first floor with seven bedrooms and 3 bath/shower rooms - perfect for us as 3 families. There is also a second floor with 2 further (adjoining) bedrooms, one with a sink in it but there is no toilet up there.
The house is filled with memories from past trips around the world, almost like museum exhibits, none of us had ever stayed anywhere like it before and the children have made lifelong memories! We want to particularly thank Noemie and her uncle who really looked after us and made us all so welcome - extremely helpful but with no intrusion at all.
