À propos de cette location de vacances
Visit the spectacular Pyrenees for a skiing break, or just to enjoy the winter sunshine. Long winter lets now available at reduced rates. Contact us for details.
This spacious and lovingly restored former farmhouse is located in the quiet village of Caixon in the Hautes Pyrenées. It is the perfect base for a multi-activity holiday or just to get away from it all and soak up the sunshine. The house has 4 bedrooms and can sleep up to 8. Whether your holiday plans include hiking in the Pyrenees, visiting the historic towns of Pau, Lourdes, Tarbes and Auch, gourmet dining, or just relaxing in the 2000+ hours of sunshine a year that this region is famous for, it’s the perfect place to be.
The house dates back to around 1830 and boasts original and character features such as exposed beams and even the original bread oven. It is set in private and secluded grounds. There is a terrace running along the entire length of the front of the house which, having a southerly aspect, catches the sun for most of the day. On the west side of the house there is a large covered patio, perfect for escaping the sun during the heat of the day, or catching the last rays in the evening. Next to the patio is also a small courtyard with a barbecue. There is plenty of storage space for bikes, canoes etc.
There are also extensive lawns and an orchard. Plenty of places to sit in the sun, or in the shade!
The accommodation is very flexible. The ground floor on its own would make an ideal apartment for a couple, comprising huge open plan living/dining room, kitchen, utility and bedroom with en-suite bathroom.
Upstairs there is a WC and shower room and a further 3 bedrooms, two with double beds and one with two single beds. There is eco-friendly heat pump central heating system and woodburning stove to keep the house warm in winter, and massive thick stone walls which keep it cool in summer. Unlike much of the self catering accommodation available in France, Au Palouque is a not an annex to another house, or one of several rental units, but is detached farmhouse situated in its own secluded grounds. If you decide to stay at Au Palouque, then the house and grounds of about half an acre, will be yours and yours alone for the duration of your stay. No fighting for parking spaces or to get the best chairs on the patio!

As part of our motorbike tour we stayed at this property for 6 nights and weren't disappointed. The Gite was absolutely beautiful and well equipped. The downstairs area consisted of 2 settees where we could sit during the evening together. The English TV was useful to keep up with news at home. The kitchen had everything you could ever need and the outside bar- be- cue was just right. The weather wasn't as good as it should have been for August so we didn't get chance to use the outdoor seating area very much.( Many of use were bitten so take plenty of antihistamine cream) All of the beds were exceptionally comfortable and had enough linen and towels for the week.. The area is very quiet and transport is needed to get to the nearest town for supplies. Thank you Ian for your great hospitality. I would highly recommend the property for family and friends to stay.

Our family of 5 adults stayed for 2 weeks. The house was a great size for us and we spent lots of time in the gardens and terrace area. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very clean and there were lots of towels and linens. The bbq was a great asset once we had figured out how it worked and cleaned it up. A car is a must for getting to the supermarket and shops. Tarbes is a half hour drive. We drove into the mountains for a couple of walks (2hrs each way). Enjoyed the market in nearby Vic. Unfortunately the guest information folder was very out of date but we managed to get up to date info while out and about. It was very hot during our stay so we had to take care to keep shutters closed to keep the rooms cool and the septic tank smell was a bit restricting at times. The World Cup football was on during our stay so it was disappointing when the cable tv stopped working, however we managed to use the wi fi to watch on our laptop.
Despite the above we had a great fortnight overall!

Being home again already for one week, after we had a short stay at Caixon, we want to let you know that we had a wonderful time and an enjoy full stay at your holiday home in Caixon. What a nice and well organised and neatly home you have their.
As specially my mother in law, who had a special wish to visit Lourdes one more time at here 91 age, enjoyed the stay very much, which was possible because of the level floor facilities.
