  Hilde and Philippe Bed and Breakfast is an absolute gem that offers a tranquil escape into nature's embrace. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning infinity pool and the heavenly countryside views that surrounded us. It was a slice of paradise. The bedrooms at Hilde and Philippe's were not only lovely but also homely and relaxing. The beds were large and exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful and rejuvenating night's sleep. The attention to detail and cozy atmosphere made us feel right at home. Each morning, we were treated to a delightful breakfast prepared by Hilde, a true culinary genius. The selection of both sweet and savory delights, including homemade jams, quiches, and puddings, was plentiful. It was a feast for the senses and a testament to Hilde's culinary expertise. To add to the charm of our stay, we decided to explore the area on electric road bikes, which we rented from the property. Embarking on a 40-kilometer amble through the quiet roads, we were rewarded with even more breathtaking views that left us in awe. It was an unforgettable experience and a great way to immerse myself in the natural beauty of the surroundings. Philippe organised the bike, helmet, water and a bag which was a lovely touch. The location of Hilde and Philippe Bed and Breakfast couldn't have been better. Just a short two-minute walk away was Saint Clar Town, a beautiful place with a great selection of restaurants, a friendly bar, a wonderful boulangerie, and a wholesome health store. We enjoyed exploring the town and interacting with the friendly and helpful staff. Additionally, the property itself had fantastic amenities. The communal area offered stunning views that took our breath away, and the outside kitchen area was very useful. Complete with a coffee machine, fridge, cooking appliances, microwave, and sink, it made meal preparation a breeze. This area also has drinks to purchase when thirsty. The convenience of having an additional toilet near the pool area was a thoughtful touch. Hilde and Philippe have created a slice of heaven and we cannot wait to return to their wonderful place where nothing was too much trouble. Thanks. Ross and Kerry.

  We were only at La Mirande for two nights, but we wish we could have stayed longer. It is an incredible house in a beautiful part of France, run by two absolutely brilliant hosts. We were over for a wedding nearby but we'd booked late, it was all a bit chaotic and I'd been emailing Hilde and Filiep, who own the B&B with all kinds of annoying questions - all of which were answered with patience and good humour. When we arrived in France (late because the flight was delayed) Filiep called me to say that it was no problem and that we'd be able to get access to the property. When we arrived that night, food had been specially left out for us - fresh bread, cheese and wine. It was such a lovely touch after a stressful journey. The rooms themselves are really light, cool and airy - impeccably designed. Breakfast is eaten under the shade of trees in the beautiful garden, overlooking nearby fields, and is sensational - there's tons of amazing local produce but also a few home-cooked surpises - cakes, quiches and even crépes. Delicious. All of the above is great, as is the amazing value for money, but the real stars of the show are Hilde and Filiep - two of the lovliest hosts you could wish for. We can't wait to go back.

  We were welcomed by Hilde and Filip as if we were old friends, and over three days, we became friends. They were gracious hosts, making sure we were comfortable inside and outside the house. We enjoyed sitting on the lawn for breakfasts and afternoon naps under the trees, with stunning views in every direction. Breakfasts were delicious and generous, with Hilde bringing a special dish to the table each morning, after setting out an enormous buffet. Hilde works magic in the kitchen and she and Filip invited us for dinner one evening, joining two other couples that were also staying at the B&B. Dinner was delicious on the terrace, using local produce and wines, under the stars with candlelight. La Mirande is located on an elevated, quiet corner of the village of Saint-Clar, with views of the agricultural countryside in every direction, punctuated by chateaux topped hills, and the colonnaded center of Saint-Clar, and it’s Halle, within a minute walk. The house has been recently renovated and is thoughtfully designed, with just right high end amenities, plenty of towels, a lovely pool and hot tub, and upstairs lounge for guests to enjoy quiet moments. We enjoyed every minute of our stay! We will come back to La Mirande!
