Wonderful large house with spectacular views
A wonderful base to explore the Pyrenees that will not disappoint. The views down the Aure valley from the large deck towards Sait-Lary, the mountains beyond, and Spain are a stunning backdrop for a morning coffee and/or a drink after a day of walking in the beautiful Pyrenees.
The house is in a lovely little, quite village on the valley side. It's large, very well appointed, detached and surrounded by garden on all sides. It has more than ample private parking and is an all-round great home-from-home. It's comfortable and well equipped with fast internet/wifi, AC throughout and full laundry facilities. All the bedrooms are very roomy with large ensuite bathrooms.
We were welcomed by the lovely Marie, who made arrangements for our late arrival, and popped around the following day (at our convenience) to ensure everything was ok. She had some particularly good advice on hikes and the differences in the weather on the French and Spanish sides of the Pyrenees. We took that onboard and on one overcast and cooler day we ventured through the tunnel to a very warm Spain for lunch in the sun. One of the nicest and quietist walks we enjoyed was directly from the house up to Grailhen and back down around the valley through woods, meadows, and charming villages. Further afield, there are some stunning hikes to be had that suit all abilities and the nearby town of Saint-Lary had plenty to offer.
