Our house is surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and parks. There are two lakes within five minutes drive of the house, both suitable for fishing and one which allows swimming and water skiing. There are lovely historic sites for those interested in exploring the past and the beaches, shops and restaurants of Biarritz and Bayonne will entertain all age groups. Further inland are the historic towns of Pau, Tarbes and Lourdes and a short trip south will take you to the border of Spain and the majestic slopes and ski runs of the Pyrenees. There is a world of natural beauty and quiet rural villages surrounding Orthez. It makes for an ideal, romantic, peaceful holiday. You will fall in love with the charming, friendly atmosphere in this beautiful, unspoilt corner of France. The rich cultures of the Bearn and the Basque people allow you to peep back to a time when people worked hard and lived well on the wonderful food & wine they produced. The local food is still wonderful! Enjoy.
