Our
house is a beautiful ‘maison de campagne’ (country house)
dating from 1812 set in its own grounds with gardens front and rear
and ample parking. It is about 3 km from Madiran and approximately
10 km from both Riscle (north) and Maubourguet (south). The property has been extensively restored and the house is both comfortable and charming with beamed ceilings and tiled floors. Traditional thick walls and shutters help to keep the interior warm in winter and cool during the heat of the summer. |
