WHAT ARE YOU DOING SUMMER 2011?

Why not enjoy a pool with a view...

There is something for all tastes in this unspoilt corner of southern France, for lovers of outdoors there are numerous walks and VTT cycle routes of varying difficulties and the unique climbing 'Escalades en Ariege' at Le Granit d'Auzat. Lombrives cave is the largest in Europe, or the Grotte de Niaux and Grotte de Mas d'Azil are worth a visit. The riviere souterraine de Labouiche offers a underground river cruise and there is the Pre-historic park for a day out.

The vibrant markets of Mirepoix and Foix both 15 minutes away or for the historians the cathar chateau of Montsegur, Roquefixade and ...

Although the setting is unquestionably peaceful and unspoilt, the gites are only 15 minutes away from hypermarkets at junction 6 of the N20 and a five minute morning drive brings you to a choice of two traditional boulangeries in the villages of Verniolle or Varhiles where you may buy newly-baked baguettes, croissants or warm "pain-au-raisin".
