“A welcome break en route to Denia”

Having travelled from Fougeres, the time had come for Flo, the dog, my wife and I to bed down for the night. We had our mobile home loaded to the gunnells with "stuff" for our new apartment so sleeping on board was impossible. We stopped on the paege at an aire, decided that this venue seemed OK and dog friendly so off we went. Set the satnav. Paid 5.50 to get off and then another 5.50 to get off which of course created a row about how stupid can a man be. He who is driving a 25k motorhome loaded with stuff, tired etc you know how we are when tired; kept stumm. We arrive. Plenty of parking. Very dog friendly. Welcoming. Friendly receptionist. English well spoken and her French was impeccable. Room basic but with en suite. Really we only needed a bed for the night. Evening meal - a delight prepared and cooked by receptionist's husband. Fierce one had soup followed by ballantine of Guinea fowl. I had smoked herring salad followed by a blue entrecote steak. Well there were no complaints and clean plates. Couldn't manage pudding. Cracking meal. Great stop over. We'll be back. We left. Satnav programmed to avoid 5.50 toll. Realised the detour would use far more fuel and time than 5.50. With the boss's endorsement after conveying the spreadsheet of information, we went back on the motorway, paid our dues and got to middle Spain in good time. Didn't see a single yellow gillet! Well maybe next time.

Arrived before the reception opened but had received instructions on how to retrieve our key from the box outside. This was very straightforward with prompts to each step required, in English, which then delivered the key to the room and code for the front door. The room is basically furnished but adequate for an overnight stay; spotlessly clean and bed was comfortable. The bath was very small without a plug but a with a small adaption we managed! Plenty of hot water and pressure in the shower. As mentioned in other posts no aircon but fan provided. I imagine it could be very hot during the Summer. The hotel Proprietor was very friendly and helpful in preparing a plate of dried meats and bread for us since we were hungry after a long day traveling and the restaurant didn't open until 7.30pm. I was a little disappointed in the breakfast which didn't match the spread shown in the pictures on the website. One other point worth mentioning is that isn't a lift which may be a problem for some.
