Les Terres Nères

Nature is omnipresent in the surroundings: traditional henhouse, organic vegetable garden, insect refuge, nesting box...

At the gateway to the Pyrenees National Park, on the heights of a small hamlet in the Val d'Azun, enter the heart of mountain tradition. Set in an unspoilt natural environment, this beautiful farmhouse in the Bigourdane style blends in perfectly, allowing nature to take its course. It's seductive in its spaciousness, and its layout retains the authenticity of the homes of yesteryear, while respecting our heritage and biodiversity. It's easy to imagine the dedication of your host, a mountain guide, who will share her passion and offer you unique outings, providing the attentive observer with a wealth of encounters (autumn migrations at the Col du Soulor, large birds of prey including the emblematic Bearded Vulture). For the ultimate in relaxation, every Thursday in July and August the ecological Nordic bath (6 people) opens, heated by an immersed wood-burning stove and hydromassage system (extra charge, except during vacations (ask the owner for details)).
