USER FEEDBACK Login as a Registered User to add your comments Excellent! I've just come back from two weeks staying here. We booked the whole place for our club which worked out significantly cheaper than camping. The accomodation's great, the owners are really nice and climb so are happy to give you all the info on the local crags. The closest end of Calames is 10ins walk and the crag a a whole has got everything from 4s to 8a. Loads more both limestone and granite within 30 mins drive. Thinker01 - 16/Aug/10 we stayed in October 09. The Ariege is a fantastic area for rock climbing. Definitely my new favourite venue and very quiet - no polish! Basecamp Calames is a great location and superb good value accommodation, including breakfast. Very friendly hosts who can give you lots of info on the local climbing. We have booked the whole place as a gite for 10 of us this October. abbeywall - 09/Feb/10 I stayed here for a few nights recently. Fantastic place, comfy beds and great hosts. Really well situated for climbing on Calames (brilliant single and multi-pitch sun trap with climbing of all grades) and surrounding crags. ClimbFrance - 09/Nov/09
