Photos and Description of the Gers vacation cottage rental Self catering in quiet rural setting with salt water pool.

Set in the golden triangle of Armagnac country in Gascony, Le Vieux Presbytère nestles into the hillside on the edge of the hamlet of Noulens. This sleepy village is surrounded by vineyards, fields of sunflowers and maize and has good views to the Pyrenees. The barn attached to Le Presbytère has been converted into two beautiful self-contained holiday apartments, keeping some of the French charm but with all modern amenities. They are privately situated at the end of the owner's property, sleep a maximum of 6 and 4 and are surrounded by a pretty garden with fruit trees and an avenue of pine trees just next to the gites is the 10 x 5m salt-water swimming pool, which is alarmed. The two gites may be rented together for a larger group of friends or family. Meals (or a barbeque) can be prepared and delivered to your gite. L’Atelier, for bed and breakfast, is part of the main house with its own entrance looking out onto the garden and pool.

Details for La Mouette 2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, 2 Bathrooms

La Mouette (The Seagull) is the larger of the 2 gites at Le Vieux Presbytere. With a west facing balcony and views to the south over the Pyrenees this provides light and spacious holiday accommodation with all mod cons. On the mezzanine floor is a double bedroom, bathroom, sitting area which goes out onto the balcony. The mezzanine (as elsewhere) is painted in Farrow & Ball restful colours with a queen size double with good mattress and white linen. The bathroom is painted white with blue tiles, a Spanish basin and soft towels. On the ground floor another bedroom with twin beds, a sofabed and a separate shower room. The living space with Spanish tiles, is open plan with dining and sitting area for eating, reading and TV watching. The kitchen is fully equipped with dishwasher, cooker, microwave, fridge catering for 6 people. A wood burning fire makes this gite beautifully warm in winter. A big terrace outside with tables, umbrellas and bbq's make this perfect for sunny days.

This is rural France at its best! The Gers, where people live longer, is endowed with clear unpolluted skies, little traffic, friendly people, a temperate climate and a variety of fresh country produce found in the daily village markets. The area is renowned for its duck, foie gras and Armagnac and during the summer there are many festivals such as Jazz at Marciac, Country and Western at Mirande, Tempo Latino at Vic-Fezensac, bullfighting and horse racing. There is always something to see and do in the area from visiting medieval bastide villages (this is D'Artagnan country), beautiful landscapes, wine and Armagnac tasting, collecting antiques, riding, walking and cycling to just lazing by the pool on a hot summer's afternoon with a glass of fresh local wine! Le Vieux Presbytère is a 2 hour drive from Biarritz and the wonderful long, sandy beaches of the Atlantic. The Pyrenees are also 2 hours drive and have good, challenging skiing in the winter and wonderful alpine summer walks
