Willow Cottage

 From the moment we walked into Goldilocks Cottage and our five year old met three absolutely huge teddy bears – Mummy, Daddy and Baby Bear, of course – and then found her own room styled perfectly for kids and filled with books and toys, we felt we were in for some kind of fairy tale holiday.

We have just got back from the most magical holiday here at Pagel!…A holiday we will never forget, no stone unturned and nothing too much to ask for! What a place….what a team!

There being six of us, we were in the largest gite, The Winegrower’s House (3 bedrooms), and as soon as we walked up to our rooms to unpack, Siena (7) shrieked ‘I love it!’ – on each of the children’s beds was a bag of books and toys with their names on, and a costume for them to dress up in. In fact there were books and toys all over the place, to such an extent that they spent the entire week without even noticing that there was no TV!

All in all, Pagel is an absolute gem, unlike anywhere I’ve been before, and I can guarantee you’ll want to go back.

We had a beautiful holiday with our 3 year old and 5 month old. Pagel is set in stunning countryside and we loved driving around the local area and visiting villages, markets and the lake….Pagel itself completely lived up to our expectations. The children have such freedom, make friends and are totally entertained. Their philosophy of creativity, imagination and outdoor play is exactly what we wanted our son to experience on holiday. It was like he glimpsed the freedom and independence we had ourselves as children.

We loved our stay at Pagel. Everything is was so beautifully -thought through to make sure everyone had a great time. (My kids couldn’t wait for their installment of kids club each day!) The grounds and surroundings are beautiful.

Highly recommend.

The highlights here in Pagel were the Pirate ship, pool and the various play equipment around the site.  The kids had great fun with their imaginary games running around in a pack! We met some lovely families and were able to enjoy a few evenings together drinking wine while the children played.  One of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had and we are sure to return!

We have had a wonderful 2 weeks here in Pagel.  The weather was fab the first week and to be honest we didn’t venture out as the kids had such fun in the pool and running about.  Adults had a great time too…..

There were tears from our boys as they said goodbye to their friends….

All together it was a great 2 weeks as adults we got to chillax and have a few glasses of vino, safe in the knowledge that the kids were happy.

Who knew a holiday with 3 kids could be relaxing!! Kids loved running around making lots of friends.  Lovely families – organised a film night and teddy bear’s picnic….So sad to be leaving. Enjoyed every minute, the days just disappear.
