A magnificent region providing a refreshing alternative to other undiscovered areas of France. From the steep wooded gorges and the medieval bastide villages of the Northern Tarn to the breathtaking foothills of the Pyrenees this is a land waiting to be explored. Visitors never cease to be amazed by the beauty and tranquillity of the countryside and the sophistication and architecture provided by such cities as Toulouse and Pau. Walkers love the mountain villages bordering Spain. Further North the beautiful landscape is often called the "Hidden Dordogne". We are five minutes from Vic en Bigorre where there is a selection of shops, bars and restaurants as well as a large local market each Saturday selling all the gastronomic delights of the season. There is also a swimming pool with flume, a cinema and festivals throughout the year.
