About this property

The property is situated on the edge of the picturesque village of Barèges, within easy access of the free ski bus and a short walk to the village centre. It has been very recently refurbished and is very comfortable and welcoming. The large sitting room has a traditional fireplace, TV, DVD player and a selection of games and books. The dining room will seat 16 around a large table, perfect for sociable, leisurely meals. The fully equipped kitchen has a large modern range cooker, fridge- freezer, microwave and dishwasher. One of the two bathrooms has been completely re-fitted and now boasts a deep free standing bath for soaking away the day’s activities. The chalet is fully centrally heated, with plenty of hot water always available on demand. There is storage inside the chalet for skis, boots, etc..

Winter activities: There are several good ski rental shops in Bareges and two friendly ski schools, both with English speaking instructors. They both offer either group or private lessons. There are also dog sled rides and snow mobile hire up in the ski area, or if you wish, it is possible to hire a guide to take you off-piste

Summer activities: The village has a paragliding school, quad bike hire, and the largest privately owned botanical gardens in France. The walking is very extensive and suitable for all levels. The famous Pic du Midi observatory is easily reached by cable car from La Mongie over the spectacular Col Du Tourmalet. For those who like a challenge, it is a 10km uphill climb by bike to the Col du Tourmalet from Bareges village. The other cols which the Tour de France pass over are within an easy car ride.

Super séjour

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans le chalet qui correspond parfaitement à l’annonce. Il était très bien adapté à notre réunion de famille pour le nouvel an. Nous étions 8 adultes et 5 enfants, chacun avait suffisamment de place. Merci à Elinor et William, ainsi qu’à Lesley pour l’accueil chaleureux!

Une belle expérience

Très grand chalet très bien équipé (à l’exception des moules pour gâteaux et quiches). Un super accueil par les personnes sur site. De nombreuses randonnées sont accessibles à pied depuis le chalet. L’ambiance désuète du salon avec ses tapis et ses fauteuils profonds a été appréciée. Merci d’avoir même installé un sapin et des décorations de Noël . Attention aux personnes allergiques : il y a des tapis dans toute la maison.

Agréable séjour à Barèges pendant les vacances de Noël

Le chalet est très "cosy",mais, en raison de l'exiguité de la salle à manger et du salon, est mieux adapté à un groupe de 12 personnes( ce que nous étions) qu'à un groupe de 18, capacité maximale en couchage. Excellent accueil de la part des propriétaires ! L'équipement de la cuisine est parfait. Toutefois il faut savoir que le chalet est au bord d'une route trés fréquentée où l'on roule très vite;l'allée réservèe au parking,lègèrement en contrebas du chalet est certes facile d'accès, mais il est trés difficile d'en ressortir! On a donc utilisé le parking d'en face, en principe privé... Les 2 chambres de l'étage sont communicantes donc non autonomes et la première donne directement sur le salon par l'escalier, sans qu'il y ait une porte.

About the host

Hosted by William and Elinor Morton

We are farmers from Warwickshire who have developed a deep love for the French Pyrenees and everything that it offers. We first visited Bareges in 1980, when we skied for the first time. We came back 22 years later with our two sons and knew that this was where we wanted to ski as a family.

Why they chose this property

The chalet came on the market and we could see its potential. Over the years that we have had it we have worked hard to maintain a relaxed family feel to it where we love to come and bring our friends. We consider it our home, and hope our guests feel just as happy as we do when we are there. We have kept it deliberately traditionally Pyrenean in feel, with a well equipped kitchen and a huge dining table for fabulous nights eating and socialising

What makes this property unique

Sleeps 16, with off road parking for 3-4 cars. the chalet has an open fire with wood provided for your stay. The central heating keeps the place very warm and there is plenty of hot water always available if you fancy a long soak in the bath!
