Description

Mimarmel is a contemporary single story villa situated towards the end of a quiet "no through road" of 16 similar properties just five minutes walk from the centre of the quaint village of Ginestas.

Once through the front door pass through the lobby, with a cloakroom on the right hand side, into the bright and airy large (55 sq m) open plan living area with two sets of French doors leading on to a covered terrace and the garden.

The living area is furnished in a contemporary, comfortable and practical style with plenty of room for 6 guests. The very well equipped kitchen with breakfast bar is ideal for preparing a quick snack or a gourmet meal. As well as the breakfast bar there is a large dining table easily seating 6.

A door from the living area leads onto an inner hallway off which are the 3 bedrooms and the main bathroom. The main bedroom has a comfortable super-king size bed and has its own ensuite with shower, washbasin and toilet. Bedroom 2 is flexible as it can be offered as a twin room or with a king size bed. It also has useful washbasin. Bedroom 3 has twin beds.

Walking out through the living area French doors there is a shaded seating area for 6 close to the built in barbeque. A door leads off the terrace area to the pool room where the washing machine can be found.

Looking south from the living area or the terrace the pool sparkles and there is an array of colour all year round in the Mediterranean garden. Stretch out on one of the sunbeds and relax and enjoy the sunshine and the gentle chime of the village church bells in the distance.

In the evening head out into Ginestas or one of the neighbouring villages for a meal or drinks or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of the evening whilst watching the swallows dipping in and out of the pool.

The village Boulangerie is only a few minutes walk away where fresh croissants, pains au chocolates and freshly baked baguettes are readily available. The village Tabac also has general supplies and English newspapers can be purchased.

If you don't fancy cooking at lunchtime then head to Les Trois Petits Cochons in the village for a delicios three course meal. La Table du Casino next to the Mairie also serves lunch and dinner. L'oncle Jules, the local wine bar, adds to the choices available.

The village also has a bank with ATM, a post office, a pharmacy and a hairdresser. There is a co-op for the local wine or you could go to one of the neighbouring villages - there is a wealth of wine choice on the doorstep!

Venturing further afield there are numerous places to visit including the beautiful medieval walled city of Carcassonne, the Cathar village of Minerve, the Canal du Midi and some beautiful sandy beaches. We have a collection of tourist leaflets at the villa and we are always happy to make suggestions based on individual guest's preferences.

Please note that the villa is strictly non smoking and no pets are allowed. In the summer our changeover day is Friday. The maximum capacity of the villa is six - an additional cot together with baby equipment can be provided on request. Electric vehicle charging is not possible at the villa but there is a public charging point 350 metres from the villa.

A simply wonderful villa

By Vanessa G on 31-Jul-2024

A simply wonderful villa. Over our two week stay, the villa was the perfect base to explore Ginestas and the surrounding area. The house was beautifully presented, clean, well equipped and the swimming pool was a fabulous size for the whole family to play. I would truly recommend.

Summer 2024

By Sue Thompson on 20-Jul-2024

We stayed at Villa Mimarmel 29th June-6th July 2024 and had the most wonderful time. We have stayed in many Villas over the years and can honestly say this has got to be the best yet! So well equipped with everything we needed and more. Quality crockery and glassware and so much of it. Lots of games and books for both adults and children and also pool toys in the chest outside. Welcome hamper.. wow, what can I say it was amazing ! Cereal, Tea bags, Coffee, Biscuits, Crisps, Red Wine and more. In the fridge were Beers, White Wine and Soft drinks. We were a party of 4 adults and had so much space, all open plan and beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Outside area was fabulous, large shaded dining area, beautiful garden with shaded seating areas and large spotlessly clean pool with plenty of sun loungers. The village of Ginestas is literally a 5 minute walk from the Villa with a small supermarket/tabac, Pharmacy and Bakery. There’s also a Wine/Tapas bar and a couple of restaurants, we can highly recommend Table du Casino, we visited 3 times when we were there. There’s also an Intermarche Super less than 10 minutes drive away for a big shop. Finally a huge thank you to Penny and Robert (the owners) excellent communication and quickly responded to my many questions! Would highly recommend and we will definitely return.

What a lovely place this is!

By Nicole on 10-Nov-2023

Wat een heerlijke plek is dit! Echt een aanrader! Wij verbleven hier een weekje, maar hadden hier vrólijk nog een week langer kunnen blijven. Het huis is ruim (met airco) en ligt in een prachtig dorpje met meerdere leuke (kindvriendelijke) restaurantjes, een fijne bakker, noem maar op. Zee en bezienswaardigheden (Carcassonne, bijvoorbeeld) zijn in de buurt, maar de grootste troef is natuurlijk dat prachtige zwembad! Zó groot en mooi schoon! Wij hebben hier een heerlijke vakantie gehad en komen graag weer terug! Translation from Dutch: What a lovely place this is! Highly recommended! We stayed here for a week, but could have happily stayed here for another week. The house is spacious (with air conditioning) and located in a beautiful village with several nice (child-friendly) restaurants, a fine bakery, you name it. Sea and sights (Carcassonne, for example) are nearby, but the biggest asset is of course that beautiful swimming pool! So big and beautifully clean! We had a lovely holiday here and would love to come back again!

Fabulous Return Visit!

By Amy Waugh on 11-Sep-2023

Fabulous return visit! The villa is always so clean, comfortable and welcoming. Air con was not always needed, but fab when we did. Thanks again – we’ll be back! We love it here.

Such a beautiful property

By Jennifer on 28-Aug-2023

Such a beautifully appointed property and pool that went above our expectations. Immaculately clean, a thoughtful welcome hamper filled with such useful supplies. After years of renting villas I always take the basics with me but totally unnecessary here. Consequently on arrival we felt completely at home in an area that we really love and would have happily stayed longer!

We will return!

By Howard and Heather Pickering on 20-Aug-2023

What a lovely few days we’ve had staying at “Mimarmel”. The location was perfect for the wedding venue. Restaurants within easy reach were all excellent. Bread from the boulangerie was beautiful. We enjoyed every day in the “Gin & Tonic pool” and the villa was so clean and well equipped, who could ask for more. We’ve made so many happy memories from our stay here. We will return!
