Photos and Description of the Gers vacation farmhouse rental Beautiful farmhouse near Marciac in the heart of Gascony, in stunning setting

Lasserre is a 200 year old farmhouse, carefully restored to provide authentic but also modern accommodation. One of most memorable and remarked on features is simply its position. Sitting on 30 acres of its own hill, in an acre of lawned garden, it has to one side uninterrupted views extending for many miles over the surrounding hills and valleys, and to the other the Pyrenees. Whether sitting on the terrace or lying by the pool, the combination of views and silence, and the feeling of space, is utterly relaxing.

Holiday August 2008

Graeme and Margaret Banchory, Scotland
Review Submitted: March 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
This fabulous house which has been beautifully renovated to a really high standard provided the base for a second fantastic holiday. We really enjoyed relaxing by the pool and enjoying the amazing views. The kids were entertained with table tennis, badminton, boules and a fantastic rope swing. We enjoyed lots of day trips including white water rafting, walking in the mountains, wine tasting, watching the Tour de France and we visited the Chateau in Pau. There is a lovely lake nearby with beach. At night we enjoyed the restaurants in nearby villages, and the Jazz festival in Marciac was a highlight!

Gascon Tranquility

ellieboo East Yorkshire, UK
Review Submitted: February 8, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
Leave perfectly petit Pau airport & drive into the rolling hills of Gascony to this elegantly restored rural farmhouse.In one direction it looks over a valley containing a Templar church whilst the Pyrennes loom from the other side.
Peace & tranquility abound.
Inside, there are all the modern conveniences, along with enough space for our two families to stretch out & relax.
The swimming pool is wonderful for the hot days, or balmy evenings after the kids have gone to bed.
Local villages & towns supply all your needs, whilst the Marciac Jazz Festival provides an international musical experience.
The coast at Biarritz is accessible, but after a few days of winding down here, the local market seems as far as one would want to travel!

Late September 2008

-sue- Leeds Yorkshire UK
Review Submitted: January 8, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
Lovely house fantastic views. Area very rural with abundant wildlife and good walks. The house was very spacious well equipped clean well laid out and we felt very at home.
One restaurant at Bassous was just about within walking distance but the walk there and back with a lovely lunch took us all day. A car or bike is therefore essential for everything. However all the local towns and villages are ancient and delightful. For such a sparsly populated area we were suprised at the number of English folk about.
The local wine Madiran was very enjoyable.
We plan to go back and would recommend it to anyone who wants the rural french experience.
