There is an indoor and outdoor compost toilet and It has its own parking space. We are available if guests needs help or advice....We live on our smallholding where we primarily specialise in farming organic, free range 'Gascon Noir' pigs. We believe we produce the best pork in the world! We are real 'foodies' and run a catering business based on the concept of seasonal, local and organic. We are in a position to offer our guests the unique chance to buy a seasonal food box based on these principles and can cook meals if required. We also run an organic juice bar every Saturday at the wonderful St Girons market, where people from the 7 valleys converge to socialise, sell and buy. We can provide guests with fresh organic juices and smoothies on request. There is no internet reception in our Gite but some mobile phone reception. There are two local cafes / bars with internet access only 5 minutes drive away,
Due to the open plan design and connecting ladders to the upper mezzanines, this property is suitable for babes-in-arms or children aged 5+. For those wishing to catch the ski season in the beautiful relaxed
Pyrenees, this property is just 35 min drive to Mortis and an 1 1/2hr to the larger resort of Guzet. If there is snow locally there are lots of super cool luging/sledging slopes within a few minutes walk. There are no artificial lights in our hamlet so you can catch all the astronomical delights of the sky on a clear night. There are literally hundreds of walks from outside the door, as gentle or challenging as you like, also cycle routes, (indeed the Tour de France passes our village every two years) and crystal clear rivers for swimming. Within an hours drive are stunning mountain peaks and the spanish border. Sorry we can't accept dogs due to the farm animals and the property is a no smoking property.
