Photos and Description of the Gers vacation cottage rental 3 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, sleeps 6 people

This typical village terrace house is built on 3 levels and has every modern convenience. It is situated in a large south-facing garden overlooking woodland and the Pyrenees in the distance. Mielan is the sort of beautiful little village (population of 1,300) that typifies the region and provides the perfect base from which to explore the entire Midi-Pyrenees region. The village offers all basic requirements, such as ATM, supermarkets, bakers, a butcher, newsagent (with English language newspapers), hairdressers and tourist information centre. There are also two very good restaurants. La Maison d'Osborne is situated on the outskirts of Mielan, within easy walking distance of the town square.

Fantastic Stay

WAS Bordertown South Australia
Review Submitted: February 9, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2008
We felt at home right away upon arriving at the house. The house was very well maintained and the hosts are wonderful warm and friendly people. Most accomodating and helpful. After exploring we unpacked and went for a walk around the town. We just loved it. The grocery store is just great, everything is there you could need. We used our satellight navigation which is most useful to explore the area and surrounding towns and cities. The house has a lot of tourist information including maps as well as the visitors information books are very helpful. WE enjoyed all the places we visited and Including the observatory at Pictu Midi well worth a visit. Cable Car a great ride. We found the more you try to communicate with the locals the more accepted we felt. Plenty of smiles and gestures. It is also worth trying in market produce you come across, wonderful. We most definately would recommend a stay here as there is plenty to do. We did not eat out as preferred to cook ourselves. Made great use of the back yard area to relax and read if we had time and weren,t off sight seeing or got back early. One great thing we did discover is that if you go to any small town and want a quick look around find a souvenir shop and check out the place mats they are a quick run down on the local area and never failed to find something interesting to see. If you hire a car the best suggestion to everyone is get a satellite navigation system. It saves so much time and stressful situations.
