Group accomodation & reception conditions :
– Supervision of children and adolescents by parents or other adults : both from a practical and educational point of view, for learning to live in a community, it is important to teach young people how to put away their games even in the room before going out, close the door securely especially in summer because of the air conditioning or in winter due to heating, put away the balls and rackets, take off their shoes when getting into the trampoline (never more than 2 children together or 1 teenager alone), be careful in and around the play area and especially the shared swimming pool (armbands if necessary), do not leave towels, toys and buoys lying around there which could disappear or fly away, and finally, unless the owners have previously agreed to leave all games on site (risk of losing them at the beach).
– Well-being and respect for the environment : thank you to our guests for remaining as courteous and respectful of nature as possible, of others and the neighborhood, of the children and animals on site, and of the natural calm of the place. In fact, if babies, children and animals have all their places and priorities there, they must not excessively disturb other residents, nor be left alone and unsupervised at the risk of panicking and leaving our large property which although partly fenced, it is nonetheless open to the outside.
– Arrivals, exits and noise pollution : likewise, let us remain measured, respectful of the places and the people as well as the tranquility of this haven of peace and relaxation that you yourself have come here to seek. This is why the sound system with speaker even on the telephone (with volume at full volume) is strictly prohibited because of the bass it generates and music is only tolerated indoors and at a certain volume, nor every evening either. and especially not between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. according to current French laws. In common areas such as private accommodation which are not as well sound-insulated as a discotheque or party hall more suited to festive evenings, birthdays or “stag parties” which are strictly prohibited here. We just make exceptions for certain annual events such as end-of-year celebrations (Christmas and New Year’s Day). The natural and enchanting setting absolutely does not lend itself to excesses during the day or evening, please take this into account when making your reservation choice !
– Transparency and honesty : also notify us in advance of the expected number of guests, because we are required to know and respect a certain maximum number of people sleeping on site, adults or children, pets or not…
– Wind, waste and fire risk : being by the sea, in a fairly dry and windy region, there is always a risk of fire starting in the South of France, including in the OPs. This is why our lodging are all non-smoking but with smoking areas provided only outside on the terraces & balconies with obligatory ashtrays. Even if we have a large swimming pool as a water tank (non-chlorinated), a few garden hoses and rainwater collectors, it is sometimes far from sufficient in summer in the event of prolonged drought. This is why we chose planchas rather than barbecues and why it is absolutely forbidden to throw cigarette butts on the ground, nor plastic or glass waste outside the bins provided at the entrance for this purpose.
Thank you in advance for your understanding and respecting the premises and the environment, our regulations and General Conditions of Sale T&Cs. Also read carefully the descriptions with photos and videos of our lodges Le NID and La TOUR as well as the Important information for members of the group to know before any reservation, payment and staggered arrivals. If you have any questions, problems or other issues, do not hesitate to talk to us early enough to find a solution together.

Taxes, deposit and compulsory cleaning :
- Tourist tax : From 2020, according to the new directives from the Ministry, the Thuir Tourist Office asks us to switch to the actual tourist tax which is calculated in a fairly complex way for unclassified furnished accommodation at around 2% per night and number of adults – see : https://aspres-thuir.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/grille-tarifaire-2020-non-classe%CC%81s.pdf
- Deposit : On site, upon arrival during the inventory, we ask for a deposit of € 1,500 to € 2,000 for groups (€ 500 / accommodation + rooms) depending on the season, the number of occupants and the length of stay. One part of the deposit must be provided on arrival in cash and the other by checks (if French). We return the cash upon departure and the check will be torn 14 days later if there has been no damage, no malicious intent, pollution (cigarettes, waste, etc.), theft or disappearance, breakage or damage.
