Gite L’Hibiscus comfortably sleeps 4 to 5 people and is the largest of three gites forming part of Barès, a traditional farmhouse in the beautiful Haute Garonne département in Occitanie, South West France. The gîte is attached to the main house but is completely self-contained and private. It has ancient beams, wood-burning stove, its own private garden and terrace, shared use of the luxury 10 X 5m swimming pool and 1.5 hectares of grounds with stunning views of the Pyrenees. Only 50 mins from Toulouse, an hour to the Pyrenees and 75 mins to the nearest skiing. Fully equipped with two double bedrooms (one with patio doors onto the private terrace) and a single bed on the mezzanine above the beautiful beamed sitting room (suitable for adults or older children only), the gite has wi-fi, satellite TV with French and English TV stations, DVD player and selection of DVDs, its own terrace and garden within the beautiful grounds of Barès. The sitting room is the oldest part of Barès, containing the fireplace and bread oven of the original farmhouse kitchen. In Winter the wood burning stove brings the fireplace to life and creates a wonderful Winter hideaway. The beds will be made up ready for your arrival and there will be plenty of towels. In the kitchen you'll find all the essentials such as tea, coffee, sugar, salt and pepper as well as fresh bread, croissants, milk, butter, jam, ham, cheese, fruit juice and a bottle of wine. With a gas hob, microwave oven, fridge and dishwasher, pots and pans, crockery and glassware, you'll have everything you need to cook up a feast, although for Summer holidays you might prefer to use the barbecue provided on the terrace. Barès really is in the heart of the countryside, so you will need a car. The pretty market town of L'Isle en Dodon is a scenic 12 kilometer drive and has a large supermarket, shops, cafes and a Saturday morning market. We will be there to greet you, make sure you have everything you need and take care of any problems during your stay. We look forward to welcoming you to Barès!
