The words inscribed on our front door in the local language Occitanie say Aci. lou pla bengut seras which means “Here, you will be most welcome”. That is our mantra Everyone is indeed most welcome. Our Chambre d’Hotes was built in 1943, set in a hectare of established gardens with fruit trees and has been lovingly renovated and modernised to offer guests comfortable up to date accommodation with all the character that comes with a traditional Basque style country house.

With the Pyrenees and the Baronies on our doorstep there are plenty of hiking trails, and cyclists can enjoy the challenge of the mountains as well as some flatter areas. If you enjoy horse riding there are several well established equestrian centres nearby. Hop in the car to the nearby Madiran wine region where you can sample some of the best wines and the Gascon Fois Gras. Only a few minutes walk from our house is the beautiful Abbaye of Saint Sever de Rustan, which provides tours most afternoons. We are ideally located for the Marciac jazz and the Tarbes Tango festivals in the summer. In Winter, we are only just over an hour to the nearest Pyrenean ski resorts, and there are several to try here! Our location offers the luxury of trying a different one each day.
