In addition to skiing and cycling, the chalet is convenient for shopping and sightseeing, with Tarbes, Pau and Lourdes all close by, and for golfers there is a beautiful 18-hole course (overlooking the mountains) within 5 minutes drive of the chalet. Walking opportunities are extensive in this area and there are many fabulous walks all within close reach. Trout fishing, horse riding, para-gliding, flying, motocross, go-karting, rock-climbing, canoeing, sailing and rafting are also all catered for locally. Or you can take things at a more leisurely pace and visit the charming local French and Basque mountain villages, the beautiful Jurancon wine region near Pau or take a day trip over the mountains into Spain via the many passes or tunnels. Within 1 Hour 40 Drive From Toulouse And Biarritz Airports, 30 Minutes To Tarbes Lourdes Airport
We love visiting France for its culture, great scenery and we particularly love mountains and walking. We visited the Hautes Pyrenees recently and immediately fell in love with the area. It is traditional France, with many old customs, and the people are very friendly. On our first day in the area we met a French farmer bringing his sheep down from the mountains on the main road. The Pyrenees mountains themselves are awe inspiring and a wonderful back drop to the many walks you can do in the area. We have always wanted to buy a property in France and we knew when we visited Bagneres de Bigorre in the Pyrenees that we had found the perfect place for our home in France. We hope that you will love the place as much as we do.
The main attraction of Villa Tamerza when we decided to buy the house was that it was situated in the countryside yet was only 5 minutes from Bagneres de Bigorre with all its facilities, restaurants and a place to buy your croissants in a morning. Of course the fact that you can wake up to views of the Pyrenees mountains each day is incomparable. The house has its own pool and tennis court, plus is an excellent base for cyclists (it is on the main Tour de France route and is a mecca for cycling), which were added bonuses not only for ourselves but also for our guests. You can quickly drive to many great scenic areas in the region as you are already close to the mountains not only for walking but also for skiing and many other outdoor activities.
Hello! We absolutely loved the villa and had a fantastic time. Thank you so much for renting it out, if it was mine I'm not sure I could bear to share it! I have already left a full review on Tripadvisor!
Villa Tamerza is a lovely spacious, airy chalet and really well equipped, big table for eating around, comfy lounge with 'real' fireplace, super equipped kitchen and all bedrooms and bathrooms are a great size, some with views of the mountains. Plenty of entertainment, pool, tennis court, large garden and games room. It's in a great location for getting out to nearby towns Bagnere, Pau, Lourdes etc..and only half-an-hour from a fabulous skiing resort. Lots of walks nearby, and Bagnere is a lovely little local town for restaurants, shops, markets and the amazing spa. Definitely need a car for the chalet. We would definitely go again.
maison confortable et agréable pour se retrouver en famille. dommage qu'elle soit au bord de la route de tarbes, nous étions réveillés par le bruit des voitures (la maison ne dispose pas de double vitrage) ce qui risque d'être difficile à supporter en été.
