Former school with swimming pool.

Former school reformed with charm in a gîte, which can accommodate up to 12 people. Ductable pellet stove

Wooded land 5000 m2, facing Barescou stream, rest and calm guaranteed.

A starting point for all activities and hikes that offer the Aspe Valley. Any comfort, ideal lodging in family, well arranged and very comfortable. 5 km away, the Bénou plateau offers horse and pony rides. The animal park of Borce is at 10km, with all the fauna of the Pyrenees.

You can visit barns of local producers, AOC cheeses, markets, and of course hikes to discover our most beautiful sites in the mountains.

The Ocean, Biarritz, and St Jean de Luz are just over an hour away to enjoy the Basque coast and its gastronomy and dream landscapes.

Spain is just around the corner for your shopping and parties. The medieval town of Jaca, the old station of Canfranc with all its history

For winter sports enthusiasts, the resorts are very close: Le Somport, La Pierre St. Martin, Gourette, Candanchu, or Astun await you to discover the different valleys of the region. The spa resort of Eaux-Bonnes, in the Osseau Valley for relaxation.

Dépaysement et calme en pleine nature
Maison vaste et très agréable. Petit torrent et cascade au fond du jardin, calme sans être totalement isolé. La cheminée ainsi que le poêle à granulé offrent un très bon confort.Radiateurs électriques aussi à disposition... Les chambres ainsi que le dortoir sont d un confort appréciable. Nous étions 9. Nous recommandons ce lieu sans hésitation. Le propriétaire.fait preuve de gentillesse et dévouement...Nous souhaitons redécouvrir cette ambiance en été.

Agréable séjour "randonnées" à Escot et ses environs
Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine en famille pour les fêtes de fin d'année. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié nos soirées dans le salon au coin du feu, et les enfants la grande chambre à l'étage. La cuisine est très bien équipée. Merci encore :-)

Vacances en famille
Une semaine entre balades en montagne et plongeon dans la piscine dans un petit coin perdu de la vallée. Reposant et très agréable. Exactement ce que l'on souhaitait.

Au frais et au calme
Nous avons passé un beau séjour entre amis (3 couples, dont 2 avec enfants en bas âge) dans le gîte de Louis Tolosa. L'endroit est isolé, bien que sur la route du col de Marie Blanque. La rivière est très agréable, on peut s'y baigner et y jouer. Pour ceux qui n'accepte pas l'eau saisissante de la montagne, la piscine est idéale. Le gîte est grand et tout équipé, les chambres confortables, la terrasse idéale. Il ne manquerait que quelques couverts, verres et tasses en plus pour ne pas à avoir faire tourner le lave vaisselle après chaque repas. Un chouette endroit pour passer des vacances au calme, et pour rayonner dans la vallée d'Aspe.

Superbe base de vacances pour les vallées d'Aspe et d'Ossau
Le gîte de Louis est un bonheur pour les enfants comme pour les grands. Un superbe espace extérieur, grand, donnant sur la rivière, et avec la piscine qui va bien pour se rafraîchir. L'intérieur est très bien aménagé, grande cuisine qui est vraiment la pièce à vivre, très bien équipée pour bien cuisiner, deux SDB pour se répartir et machine à laver et sèche linge pour appréciables pour les familles nombreuses. Le salon donne envie de se poser avec un bon livre, un puzzle ou un jeu de société tant il est agréable et enfin les couchages sont nombreux et de bonne qualité. Un poil chaud à l'étage en été en journée mais les nuits sont bien fraîches et on y dort bien. Idéal pour aller explorer la vallée d'Aspe, et celle d'Ossau en passant par le col de Marie Blanque, multiples activités sportives et culturelles pour petits et grands et un paradis de la randonnée (Allez au lac d'Ayous pour admirer le pic du midi d'Ossau, même avec des enfants)... bref, nous recommandons vivement.
