“We did a 2 week exchange with Véronique and Philippe in the summer of 2010 and it was a great success in every way! We stayed with the family one day before they left and they made us feel extremely welcome! They showed us around the house and their area and we went through the comprehensive material they had collected about their area. The house is very big and the garden is very private and like a park - perfect for playing, eating and relaxing in the sun! Close to the house there is a very nice lake for swimming with life guards, a restaurant and water games. The bakery is within walking distance from the house - perfect if you enjoy fresh croissants for your morning coffee :-) The house is also ideally located for discovering the Pyrenees (a fantastic experience!) and the Basque country. During our stay the family answered any questions we had promptly by e-mail and they left our home spotless! We do not hesitate to recommend this wonderful family as well as their warm and welcoming home! Kind regards, Anders & Anne Marie, Sweden”

About our home
Our large "country" villa, built at the beginning of the last century, is located in the land of the Foie gras, near Lourdes (20 km), Toulouse (1 h 30 by car) and Bordeaux (2 hours), very close to the Pyrenees, so very close to Spain too ! The sea is distant 1h 30 by car in the basque country. Our villa is set in a very spacious park with age long trees. The house has a large and sunny living-room, a large kitchen full equipped.
