Paul
This villa has the BEST vista of any we have stayed in across France and Italy! We thoroughly enjoyed sitting at the table under the canopy, eating, drinking and watching the changing colours of the sky over the beautiful rolling countryside. The pool was a good size with well-shaded seating and the villa was comfy and well equipped with everything we needed. A short walk into the village was rewarded with a lovely restaurant (only open Thursday to Sunday), a local bar (where we joined a lively group of locals to watch a couple of the Euro matches!), a tabac and epicerie where most emergency supplies could be bought. Fresh bread and pastries were available from both - order the day before or be there at 8am! We found plenty of lovely towns to explore within an hour's drive. Communication with Alissa was excellent before and during our stay; she really could not have been more helpful.

We absolutely loved our stay at The Ramparts. The house is really well equipped and has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The photos don't really do justice to the amount of space available. Dining inside or out is easy and socialising by the pool is also extremely comfortable with the pool side lounge area and under cover bar with comfortable seats. There are also places to take some time to yourself with incredible views and to enjoy the peace. Alissa, the host, was extremely helpful and very responsive when we needed her. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Ramparts and would definitely book again. Thank you for a fabulous stay.
The Stubbs and The Bates families
Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful home. It was well loved and widely enjoyed (especially the pool) You made us feel so welcome and we are very grateful.
This is one of the best, maybe even best, holiday houses I've stayed in and its been so lovely I wish I could have stayed for longer.
Thank you for giving us this wonderful holiday home to stay in, this has been one of the best holidays I have been on and I think everyone else agrees.
Thank you once again.
Lyndon and John
It has been a great stay ( but too short) in a beautiful house.
Mike Franks
Really enjoyed our stay and the house worked great for 4 of us. Garden and pool lovely. Boys loved the Table Tennis and the bar area and the pool.
Pringle family
The Ramparts was exactly what we all needed after the last two and a half years. Spacious, very well appointed and with a beautiful garden and pool. My wife and I seldom do quiet holidays, we're more inclined to explore, visit and generally get out and about, but not this time and the house and the village it sits in were perfect for this.
Puimission is a lovely unspoiled little place. True there's not much there, but that was just fine, a Tabac, cafe and restaurant were all that was needed.
Your house had so much space to stretch and breathe, despite there being seven of us there. It was never crowded, never busy, no one was falling over each other, it was the perfect spot just to be.
Pure France was helpful and efficient without drama and your emails and guides were invaluable. I have not previously dealt with an agency and owner who were so joined-up and in tune and it made a really difference both to the anticipation of the holiday and to our stay itself.
Possibly the greatest compliment I can pay you is that it only took about 36 hours before one of our party, I think it was our youngest, suggested that we should get it booked for next year! Time will tell, but I would have no hesitation in coming back and I'll happily recommend The Ramparts to anyone looking for a truly relaxing break in beautiful surroundings.
Your service was exceptional and for that we are all deeply grateful.
Gwilliam family
We had such a lovely time, thank you! Juliette is really fab and super helpful. It's a beautiful property that's had a lot of love put into it and we noted how different this was to a run-of-the-mill holiday let. Particularly with the little nick-nacks and treasures from far and wide (loved that!).
We have had a great time in this wonderful house with fantastic view on the countryside. The house has lots of bedrooms &bathrooms and also a large kitchen/living area, which makes it suitable for a large group. But since it is also very cosy, it is also very suitable for a smaller group or a couple. It has all amenities, like good kitchen, terrace with BBQ, swimming pool, garden, pool table, tv etc for a relaxing holiday. The house is surrounded by vineyards, but also the sea, the Causes and even the Pyrenees are not that far away, so an excellent location to explore the Languedoc (either by car or by bicycle).

Excellent stay at Alissa's - fabulous house, pool and view! We were very happy with our stay! Alissa is very welcoming and available! I recommend the house to future travelers without hesitation. Thanks again! We had a wonderful stay at your house.
Virginie et Galaane
An excellent stay with friends. The house is large and there is plenty of space to relive or have a good time or find a moment of rest. To do again...!
NB
The house is fully kitted out with anything you might need for a relaxing holiday. The house is gorgeous both inside and out, the interiors are so homely and welcoming and the garden and view are both spacious and private. The pool/ bar area are an added luxury which make you feel spoilt, but you still feel within the landscape. All the nearby villages are beautiful and lovely places to explore and the beach is only half an hour away. This is a perfect spot for a quiet holiday but with many things to do nearby and the house is such a treat- I can honestly say this is one of my favourite holiday rentals. You can really feel the love put into this house in the little details which made it feel like home. We loved it so much and want to come back again and again.
