Great gîte

Thank you Alain for a wonderful stay in your beautiful gîte. We loved the farm festival you took us to and you have made us feel very welcome! The gîte is lovely and comfortable, very well equipped. The views are stunning. One point to note: the pool is shared with another gîte, not private. The region is beautiful, lots to do around the gîte

Fresh and clean

I have stayed here twice, it has everything you need for a great stay in Vallee d'Aspe and Pyrenees. Clean, airy, spacious and comfortable. Excellent heating and hot water. Highly recommended! Propre, spacieux et frais, tout est inclue pour une bonne vacation proche des Pyrenees et Espagne. Merci beaucoup.

En un mot : parfait. Le coin est magnifique, le calme et la vue imprenable sur les Pyrénées. Les commerces (produits locaux) a côté, les grandes surfaces a 7 min. Le gite est top, propre, fonctionnel. La piscine est parfaite car parfaitement entretenue et bienvenue par ces chaleurs de cet été. On est situé au centre d'énorméments de choses à faire et à découvrir (balades, visites de grotte (faire absolument la Verna!), des villages perchés isolés...)Et enfin Alain, le propriétaire est une personne absolument charmante. Ses histoires, ses anecdotes sur la région, ses conseils de visites et gastronomie, et nos soirées avec les voisins et les fêtes de village...a conseiller absolument !!On reviendra nous

A Beautifully secluded and quiet location only 5 mins drive from Oloron Sainte Marie. The host was very welcoming and helpful even if our French was not up to par. Great food options nearby and the Market in Oloron on Friday morning is a must for foodies. The property was clean tidy and compact. No wi-fi though and you had to hold the shower head as minor fobiles. Having the pool just outside and being able to just jump in whenever made up for it. We experienced average temperatures of over 35c every day which is abnormal even for the area at the time of year and this made sleeping uncomfortable so some aircon units would have helped but asides that we would recommend this property and host to anyone who wants a holiday away from the crowds.

Vacances à vivre absolument !

Nous avons passé de superbes vacances chez Alain, le propriétaire. Le gîte est situé au pied des montagnes : quelle vue ! La piscine est chauffée et très appréciable lors des fortes chaleurs. Alain met à disposition table de ping pong, filet de badminton et baby foot ainsi qu’une plancha pour les repas en extérieur. Alain est hyper sympa et de très bon conseil pour les sorties touristiques ! Un séjour inoubliable que nous recommandons fortement ! Merci Alain !
