Welcome to Aire du temps!

[New: Aire du temps on Facebook]

¯ A friendly spot in the French Hautes-Pyrénées (65), not very far from ski-resorts and the Val d'Aran in Spain.

¯ Two gîtes (self-catering), a guest room and a small ecological camp site (with room for maximum 5 tents and a fully equipped rental caravan).

¯ On request a fine organic breakfast.

¯ For nature-lovers and peace-seekers, who appreciate the small things in life (as we do too).

¯ Peace and quiet, panoramic views of the Pyrenees (Cap de Pouy de Hourmigué, Pic du Gar, Mont Burat, Mont Aspet, Montlude).

¯ Scenic walking and cycling routes; rafting; fishing; horseriding; climbing; paragliding; skiing; crosscountry skiing...

¯ Only 4 km away: the Chemin du Piémont des Pyrénées (to Santiago de Compostella).

¯ Day trips to Cathar country; Lourdes; Toulouse; the cathedral of St-Bertrand-de-Comminges; the prehistoric caves of Gargas...

¯ Cheese, honey and apple juice du terroir from nearby farms in the Barousse valley.

¯ On request: "How to prepare sushi" workshop (Leuntje's specialty).

¯ No tv, but (wireless) internet (wi-fi).

¯ Many translations of "The little prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry - the perfect literature for a lazy afternoon in the garden or a winter evening next to the fire.

¯ Public transport: bus stop (Bagiry) only 1 km from here. Train station (Saléchan-Siradan) 2 km away. Take the night train in Paris-Austerlitz (22.56h) and join us for breakfast the next morning.
