  About our property

A former Auberge built in the 1880's with all the  charm of a traditional French Bigorre house.  Located in the village of Pujo, South West France, we have made 51 Route des Pyrenees our home, consisting of our main house plus a magnificent independent gite set in over an acre of gardens with over twenty varieties of trees.  We are based in a prime location in France with easy access from the UK.

Situated between Tarbes and Vic en Bigorre in a traditional peaceful French village with the Mairie, Post Office and local Boulangerie. Whilst Pujo offers a peaceful retreat it is an excellent base for exploring a region rich in historical interests.  Perfect for sightseeing and walking in the  most spectacular parts of the Pyrenees or sampling the Gascony cuisine, wines and Armagnac.

Throughout the year we offer gite rental offering you the space and ambience to enjoy your stay in France.  We also offer short breaks for those who need a base whilst viewing properties in the region with the intention to buy.  We can offer support, advice and answer any questions that you may have in relation to your move to France.  Car hire is reasonable in this part of France and can be booked on line with extra discount if booking with Rynair or Easyjet. 

The Gite - Sleeps 4 - 6 People

As you walk in the door the vast space on the ground floor consists of the main living area with open plan living/kitchen/dining area with beams, original stonewalls and feature working fireplace.  There is a sofa and two easy chairs, a television, video, and stereo.  There is a dining table with six chairs, a buffet dresser and fully equipped kitchen. 

There is a further lounge/games room with sofa, games and books. 

Two of the four double bedrooms are downstairs with a double shower room and two toilets. 

On the first floor are two double bedrooms each with en suite shower rooms.

Outside facilities include a huge garden with many hidden charms including twenty seven different variety of trees, many of which supply succulent fruit.  In addition you will be able to take advantage of the many different home grown vegetables.  There are places to relax and enjoy the sun with the trickle of water into the pond as well as places to relax and enjoy the shade under the vast canopy of trees.   The climate encourages outside eating hence plenty of garden furniture to enable you to enjoy alfresco dining.  The great French addiction of petanque is also catered for with boules provided.

About our region

Pujo – Midi Pyrenees - A magnificent region providing a refreshing alternative to other undiscovered areas of France. From the steep wooded gorges and the medieval bastide villages of the Northern Tarn to the breathtaking foothills of the Pyrenees this is a land waiting to be explored. From traditional mountain villages in the South bordering Spain, to a more provincial ambience further North in the countryside. Visitors never cease to be amazed by the beauty and tranquility of the countryside and the sophistication and architecture provided by such cities as Toulouse and Pau.

Walkers love the mountain villages bordering Spain. Further North the beautiful landscape is often called the “Hidden Dordogne”.  Spring arrives six weeks earlier than the South of England and you can still comfortably swim outside until mid October.

We are five minutes from Vic en Bigorre where there is a selection of shops, bars and restaurants as well as a large local market each Saturday selling all the gastronomic delights of the season.  There is also a swimming pool with flumes, a cinema and festivals throughout the year.
