Romantic and historic little hideaway in the French Pyrenees!

This magnificent former Shepherd's Lodge, with origins dating back to 1891, dominates its hillside with views of the mountain peaks and its lush valley with meandering river below.

It sits within 2,560 m² of well cared for grounds with beautiful flower beds and is ideally located just 5 minutes from its village, at the foot of the Pyrenean passes and ski resorts.

The lodge was completely rehabilitated, in 2018, from the ground to the roof, by local craftsmen with high quality fixtures and fittings. Renovations include full rewiring, installation of double glazed windows, low consommation radiators, new bathroom and a newly fitted kitchen with a Lacanche range and granite worktops.

The accommodation is spread over three levels. On the lower level, there is a laundry room, a shower, a toilet and a storage space, with a separate side entrance. On the main floor, the entrance opens onto a large open plan kitchen / living area with a wood-burning stove incorporated into a period fireplace. The living room opens onto an adjoining covered terrace with simply stunning views of the mountains!

The top floor offers a large bedroom with a bathroom ... the bath has been stategically placed to optimise the views of the valley and mountains.

Located less than 30 mintues from the town of Nay where everything is available and an hour from the cities of Pau, Lourdes and Tarbes and at the foot of the Pyrenees ski resorts with all the activities they offer, biking, hiking, climbing, canyoning, horse riding to name a few.

Auszeit (fast) am Ende der Welt
Wenn man dieses wunderschöne Haus mietet, muss man sich über eines im Klaren sein: Man ist weit weg von der realen Welt von Restaurants, Supermärkten etc. Aber dafür lebt man mittendrin in einer wunderbaren Natur mit einem grandiosen Blick. In dieser Umgebung kann man komplett abschalten, es fehlt an nichts. Auch die Küche ist hervorragend ausgestattet.
