Amazing place with amazing hosts

As soon as we arrived Ann, Andre and Emily welcome us into the superb Clos Mirabel. With its dominant position atop a hill, it is sheltered from the elements with an incredible view south across Jurancon vines and across to the Pyrenees you could easily believe you were a million miles from civilisation rather than just 15 minutes from the centre of Pau.
After asking for tips on where to eat, we headed into Pau and found the parking easy and the local food delicious. There is even a Michelin starred Auberge just a few minutes drive away and many other local attractions making this area far more inviting than anywhere else we have been in France.
Our room was well made, nicely decorated and offered us that grand view directly from our windows. It also managed that most difficult of things for a guest room; it was spacious and open to while away some time reading, whilst at the same time being cosy and we slept like logs.
Breakfasts at Clos Mirabel are wonderful with generous helpings of local produce, warm breads and freshly made food, and not a cliched croissant in sight.

I would heartily recommend Clos Mirabel to anybody visiting the area and we look forward to our next trip so we can return :)

Outstanding place to stay

5 of 5
Submitted: September 26, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We have stayed at Clos Mirabel on 2 separate occasions and both times have been absolutely outstanding.
The setting is absolutely stunning and the house itself beautiful. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel extremely welcome and nothing was too much trouble for the owners, Andre and Ann. Breakfast was a delight, with local fresh produce, fresh fruit and bread amongst other delicious food and drink. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all of good size, spotlessly clean and furnished in keeping with the style of the house - a beautiful old Manor house - without being too stuffy.
The location itself is set outside of the centres of Jurancon and Pau on a quiet hillside road but both are within a short driving distance and taxis can be easily arranged. There are some wonderful restaurants nearby, all of which were recommended by Ann and one in particular we visited twice in 3 days it was so good.
Clos Mirabel is an absolute gem, a place we will return to time and time again and would recommend to everyone.

We stayed at Clos Mirabel for a week in the self catering accommodation (the Winery) which is separate from the main house and has amazing views across the vineyards to the Pyrenees.
The pool is a godsend after a day traveling around in the car and as we drove into the wonderful grounds, I could feel myself begin to unwind with the tranquility and beauty of the place.
However, it is the owners, Ann and Andre that really make this place so special. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they did their utmost to make our stay as enjoyable as possible without being intrusive in any way. When we returned home, we felt that we had left good friends behind.
The reviews for this place say it all - would return in a heartbeat!

Pyrenäen zum Greifen nah

4 of 5
Submitted: June 25, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
Glücklich, wer ein solches Panorama vor der Tür hat - der Urlauber freut sich und die Gastgeber sind entspannt. Der Blick über die Weinreben auf die Berge ist wirklich einzigartig, ob nun vom netten kleinen Pool aus oder von einem lauschigen Plätzchen auf der Terrasse. Und vor allem gibt es köstliche Stille auf die Ohren.

Das Manoir-Appartment ist genauso pittoresk wie auf der Website dargestellt. Allerdings waren wir etwas überrascht, dass es sich über 3 bzw. 3,5 Stockwerke erstreckt, die mit einer ziemlich engen Wendeltreppe verbunden sind. Große Menschen mit Schuhgröße über dem Durchschnitt können damit schon mal ein Problem bekommen. Aber auch Zartgebaute, so sie denn ihren sperrigen Koffer in die Nähe des Schlafzimmers befördern möchten, anstatt ihn in der Küche stehen zu lassen. Ein kleiner Hinweis auf die baulichen Verhältnisse hätte uns bei der Zimmerentscheidung sehr geholten, daher an dieser Stelle erwähnt. Zugegebenermaßen haben wir das Thema nicht angesprochen, da wir auch bei gegebener Möglichkeit für die kurze Zeit keine Lust gehabt hätten, noch mal umzuziehen.

Was wir angesprochen haben, war die kalte Dusche am ersten Morgen, und der bisweilen unzureichende Wasserdruck. Ann und Andre haben sich sofort um eine Behebung des Problems bemüht. Den Rest der Zeit hatten wir dann warmes Wasser, auch wenn man sich nach wie vor mehr Dampf auf der Düse gewünscht hätte. Dies lässt sich aber offenbar im Dachgeschoss aufgrund der ohnehin ungünstigen Lage zum Meeresspiegel nicht verbessern. Die anderen Übernachtungsmöglichkeiten sollen jedoch davon nicht betroffen sein.

Frühstück war fein, reichhaltig und abwechslungsreich. Das für Frankreich eigentlich obligatorische Croissant vermisste ich ein bisschen, dafür gab es unterschiedliche Brotsorten, u.a. Spelt Bread, also glutenfreies Brot, und verschiedene Sorten von Cerealien.

Von unseren Gastgebern haben wir ein paar wirklich gute Tipps für Urlaubsunternehmungen erhalten, wir bekamen eine der eigenen Wanderkarten mit auf den Weg, alles sehr offen und locker. Am Ende wurden wir noch mit einer von einer Freundin des Hauses selbstgemachten Paté beschenkt, vielen Dank noch mal dafür - wir werden sie demnächst bei einem guten Glas Rotwein genießen!

Alles in allem eine starke Empfehlung! 5 Sterne gibt es lediglich wegen der für uns nicht ganz optimalen Gegebenheiten im Manoir Appartment nicht.

Nous remercions nos très gentils hôtes pour ce séjour très reposant dans leur domaine et leurs attentions à notre égard. La vue panoramique sur les Pyrénées est splendide, la chambre très agréable, et le petit déjeuner sur la terrasse à ne pas manquer!
Nous aurions aimé prolonger ce séjour et profiter plus longtemps de la piscine avec cette vue magnifique! Nous vous recommandons le restaurant à quelques minutes du clos et qui s appelle Au bord de l eau : grillades de viande et de poisson à déguster au bord de la rivière.
