You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Peaceful Mountain gîte with garden, BBQ and fire pit

Stay in a peaceful corner of greenery on the Prat d'Albis plateau, about 900 metres above Foix (a scenic 17-minute drive). Here the soundtrack is crickets in the evening, sheep bells in the fields, the rooster greeting the morning, and sometimes the distant call of deer from the forest.

Originally a small barn built in 1850, the building has been carefully converted into a comfortable holiday gîte while preserving its character. Today it offers modern comforts including a cosy wood stove, Wi-Fi, Netflix, a fully equipped kitchenette and a modern shower room.

The gîte accommodates up to four guests in two bedrooms with flexible zip beds that can be arranged as doubles or singles.

Located next to our family home and small organic mushroom farm, the gîte has its own entrance and private garden, allowing guests to enjoy complete privacy while still experiencing the atmosphere of rural mountain life.

Outside, the garden with barbecue and fire pit is perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the Pyrenees.

The location is ideal for discovering the rich history and landscapes of Ariège. Nearby you can explore famous Cathar castles such as Montségur, wander through historic villages, hike or cycle in the surrounding mountains, or even try paragliding from the Prat d’Albis plateau.

To make your stay even more enjoyable, we offer optional breakfast baskets, fresh bread and simple evening platters, as well as seasonal extras such as family Easter egg hunts or Halloween activity kits for children on rainy days.

With direct access to nature and outdoor activities, the gîte is an ideal place to recharge and discover this beautiful corner of the Pyrenees.
