Nestled in the heart of a quiet, picturesque village in the foothills of the French Pyrenées, this four-bed village house will seduce any francophile. Retaining all its traditional Gallic charm, the house -- previously a small hotel and a café -- has been sensitivley and charmingly renovated. It now offers four spacious bedrooms, a large sitting-room, a spacious and serene study, and the heart of the home: a lovely French kitchen with a long (original) table to accommodate groups intent on sampling local produce. The house has plentiful hot water, and for colder evenings a wood-burning stove and electric heatersSurrounded by green hills, 5KM from a beautiful motorised-traffic-free swimming lake, and 45 minutes from the Pyrenées, the Ancien Hotel is perfect for cyclists, walkers, runners, or anyone needing R&R in a quiet and welcoming village in the foothills of the mountains. There is a small terrace, perfect for an evening apéritif or two.
