welcome

Can Llouquette (pronounced ‘can yo ket’) is an 18th Century fruit-farm set in an idyllic rural location in the foothills of the Mediterranean Pyrenees. It consists of three independent buildings with several smaller outbuildings.

Situated on the flanks of Mount Canigou, it is a great place to leave the hustle and bustle behind to enjoy a quiet child friendly family holiday or a romantic getaway.

The accommodation
Can Llouquette is a traditional Catalan Mas (farmhouse), recently renovated to a high standard as a private holiday home with swimming pool.

We offer fully equipped, self catering accommodation set in 11 acres of forest and garden. Relax by the pool, stroll around the garden, by the stream, in complete peace and tranquility surrounded by nature.

The property includes two self-catering gîtes (for four people) and two self-catering apartments (for two people). They are self-contained units with their own outside space.

All are separate and very private.

Alastair Sawday's
Can Llouquette appears in the renowned Sawday's guide and website. Read what Alastair Sawday writes about Can Llouquette here »

Sawday's have been publishing accommodation guides to much acclaim for many years, they specialise in hand picking (yes we were visited!): "properties with warm, very human, interesting people, beautiful buildings, original style, elegant simplicity... delicious food, much of it grown at home and cooked with devotion ... a touch of fun with a touch of class ... honest writing with a dash of panache, comfort – yes, but not at the expense of everything else".
