A Bertin is a traditional 200 year old Gascon Stone Farmhouse. Within the house is a two bedroom ground floor gite with its own entrances on the south and north sides of the house and private terraces overlooking the garden and pool. Set in gardens and 20 acres of meadows and fields, guests are welcome to make themselves comfortable anywhere in the garden and by the pool and walk through the fields. The owners, Richard and Fran Nustedt, live in the main house and are available for as much or as little contact as you want. The property is on a no-through lane with superb views over the surrounding fields and hills, undisturbed by the sound of traffic but only a ten minute drive to the nearby medieval towns of Marciac and Plaisance. Our gite is the only holiday accommodation on or near the property. Feel completely at home here in your own little corner of Gascony, with the well-known Bastides and Castlenau Route only one mile away which will lead you through the beautiful medieval towns and villages of this area of South West France. The Gers is generally considered to be the very centre of Gascony; almost like a national park, there are no airports, heavy industry or large cities here - and virtually no public transport either, so come with a car! The night skies are exceptionally clear and the air incredibly clean - expect to sleep well! The gite comprises three main rooms; the main living/eating/kitchen area which leads into two spacious bedrooms each with their shower, basin and toilet en suite. There is fourth room also leading from the kitchen area which houses the washing machine, freezer, dishwasher and items you may want for the garden etc. The front terrace is south facing leading into the garden and pool,and there is a small private terrace on the north side directly from the twin room. The pool is used by yourselves and occasionally those staying in the main house. However pool use can be private at no extra cost - please mention this when booking.
