The Apartment and Grounds

The Pool

This beautiful one bedroom apartment, with shared pool in the converted stables of a listed Chateau, is perfect for a holiday or short break at any time of year. The apartment is set within the private and secluded park of the chateau grounds, with access to tennis courts and swimming pool and spectacular mountain scenery. Located in the heart of the Pyrenees, close to the historic town of Foix. This is a truly year round location, with trekking, cycling, kayaking, canyoning, rafting, potholing, paragliding, sailing, fishing, horse riding, rock climbing and many more activities for the summer months, and downhill and cross country ski resorts for the winter. In July the Mountain stage of the Tour de France passes by the chateau on the final ascent, and the village is alive with activity in the days leading up to this event. Add to all this the fantastic wildlife, thermal spas, Cathar castles and breathtaking scenery, there’s something for everyone in this unique property.

Guest comments
We had a splendid holiday - the flat is in a wonderful position and we'd be keen to go again.

I've already recommended the flat to colleagues!

We found the flat very well equipped. We thought that the provision of kitchen equipment was fantastic.

We headed up to Plateau de Beille, which we loved!! Deep snow and even 1 day with sunshine. It’s a real plus being so near your apartment.

We were very impressed with your apartment and with the area in general.

The position of and views from the apartment were excellent and meant that we could relax and enjoy the setting without even having to venture into the grounds!

Thanks for the use of your beautiful flat.

We had a fantastic holiday, your apartment is lovely - great location and it’s so nice and new and well equipped.

I hope other people get to make the most of the winter fun in the area as well as summer sun!
