Frequently Asked Questions




WHERE CAN I PARK?


There is parking on the street just outside Cinq & Sept’s front entrance. And there is also a large free car park just 1 minute walk from the house. Your car will be safe left in either location.

---

CAN I SWIM AND SUNBATHE NAKED?


Yes. We are in a village, and our garden and pool are overlooked by only two neighbours, a gay man from Paris and a retired artist from San Francisco. As a result, we always feel very comfortable being naked by the pool ourselves. Of course, you don't have to be naked, and some guests choose not to be. It's entirely up to you.

---

HOW OFTEN ARE SUITES CLEANED AND LINEN CHANGED?


We are not a hotel as such - so we do not clean your suite and change the linen every day. We offer a free suite clean and new linen every 3-4 days. We have a daily turndown service where we replace any dirty towels for free.

---

DO YOU PROVIDE INTERNET ACCESS?


Yes. Free broadband WIFI internet access is provided in all our suites, and is also available in the garden and by the pool.

DO YOU SERVE BREAKFAST?


Yes we do, and it is included in the price of your suite. We deliver a breakfast basket to your door each morning which includes fresh croissants, pain au chocolat, yogurts, fresh juice, fresh fruit and jam. You'll also receive 10 free Nespresso capsules which you can use in your coffee machine.

ARE THERE ANY NUDE / GAY BEACHES NEARBY?


Plenty. Cap d’Agde is 25 minutes from us, and is Europe’s largest naturist centre. It has a large naturist beach that has a gay section. Les Aresquiers is 40 minutes away - and is very popular with the Montpellier gay crowd. Serignan, to the south, is another nice beach popular with gays. And Espiguette, past Montpellier, is a superb beach with a big gay section. All gay beaches are also nude.

---

SHOULD I HIRE A CAR?


Yes. Most of the great things to see and do near us require a car to get to. It will also make getting to and from airports / train stations much easier and cheaper.

HOW DO A CANCEL A BOOKING?


If you have to cancel all or part of your trip, we will try to re-sell the nights cancelled. You will receive a full refund for any nights that we are able to re-sell. (Clearly, the sooner you announce your cancellation, the greater the chance will will be able to re-sell some or all of the nights cancelled.)


For those nights we are NOT able to re-sell - one of two things will happen:

  1. If your holiday had to be cancelled due to Government Covid related action that closes a border or requires you to quarantine for 1 week or more - all deposit money taken by us will be able to be put towards a future stay at Cinq & Sept at any time.
  2. If your holiday was cancelled due to non-Covid-related reasons, you will lose all the money paid for nights that we have not been able to re-sell.

It is strongly advised that you take out adequate holiday insurance in case you have to cancel for any reason.


IS THE POOL HEATED? AND WHEN?


The pool is heated from May 1st to Oct 31. It is kept at 28 degrees celsius.

CAN I GET A MASSAGE?


Yes, we can book a massage for you in our studio with the lovely Pierre.

CAN YOU HELP US LOOK FOR PROPERTY IN THE AREA?
