Set in a peaceful hamlet in rural Gascony, this 3 bedroom gite is part of an exceptional restoration of a grand 19th-century house, originally belonging to the village doctor.
The fully-equipped gite blending period features with modern conveniences is attached to the main house right next to the large 12m x 6m heated swimming pool (which has a children's security cover) and its own parking area and private terrace.
The house sits within large professionally landscaped grounds of 1.5ha with a pond and orchard.
A further hectare of wild pasture leads down to a wooded valley (great for dens!), with a campfire area looking across the valley and to the Pyrenees.
The village is close to the thriving market town of Trie Sur Baise, which has a local market on Tuesdays, a large Intermarche supermarket, 2 boulangeries, an excellent local wine shop and several restaurants and bars. The centre of the town was completely renovated in 2018 in honour of hosting the departure of a stage in the Tour de France!
As well as the swimming pool, there is an all weather tennis court (with rackets provided), table tennis table and a classic Bonzini table football table (as found in all good French bars!).
All the facilities such as the pool and tennis court are private but are shared with the main house when the owners are there (the main house is never rented out) with priority being given to use by the gite guests.
The gite itself comprises:
Downstairs
- A large kitchen/dining/living area with a wood-burning stove and TV (with DVD collection and X Box) which gives out onto:
- A covered terrace with a table which comfortably seats 10.
Upstairs
Off a central hallway are:
- 3 en-suite double bedrooms (comprised of 2 doubles and 1 twin) which sleep 6.
2 single futons provide additional sleeping space for 2 more people.
The swimming pool area also has an outdoor shower, changing area and toilet, laundry and drying facilities and a built-in barbeque.
The house is set in a quiet village in the Haut Pyrenees region of Southwest France.
As well as all the activities at the house, there are plenty of things to do for day trips from the house including, local walks, hiking in the Pyrenees, horse riding, golf, fishing etc.
There are a number of historical attractions within a 30-minute drive, including the Chateau de Mauvezin, caves and the international jazz festival in Marciac (25km away) which occurs annually in the first two weeks of August.

Our family (2 adults, 2 teenage children) had the most fantastic week in this gite. The gite has been beautifully restored and is spacious, well equipped and comfortable with an en suite off every bedroom. What makes it really exceptional are all the things to do in the beautiful grounds - as well as the heated pool there is a tennis court, table tennis, table football, trampoline, petanque - all high quality and in good condition. The surrounding countryside is very beautiful with great wildlife (just in the garden we saw a mole, stoat, owls, bats, hares, frogs in the pond and loads of birds and butterflies). We were met by Jo on arrival who was absolutely lovely and incredibly helpful during our stay.Guest rating:
