Come to Michouat and discover Gascony and the Pyrenees! You'll fall in love!
18th century charm, 21st century comfort “Michouat” is the name of our property here just outside the village of Vidou, about 2km from the little Gascony Bastide town of Trie-sur-Baïse. Built in the 1880s, Michouat is a traditional L-shaped Gascony farmhouse, with the family living in one side and the livestock and winter stores in the other. It remained a working farm until the end of the 1990’s when the land was sold off and the barn side of the property was tastefully converted into a Pyrenees holiday gîte. • The Living Room With its solid oak beams, Michouat’s Living Room is warm and cosy. There are comfy armchairs and a sofa for you and your company to relax in, read a book, watch DVDs (provided) or catch up on your favourite (UK/French) TV programs and, of course, there’s free WiFi throughout the property. There’s a period wood-burning stove to take the edge off any out-of-season evening or early morning chill, supported by two electric wall heaters. • The Kitchen / Dining Room includes seating and all modern conveniences to keep a family happy during your holiday with a gas cooker/oven, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, kettle, toaster, fridge/freezer etc. In addition there’s an iron, ironing board, and a drying rack! • There is an outside dining table on the patio in the shade of a parasol, and it’s also perfect for watching the sun go down on a lovely summer’s day in Gascony. • The bathroom comprises of a modern fitted shower unit, washing facilities and WC.

The small village of Vidou is situated just 3.5 kilometres from the 13th century bastide market town of Trie sur Baïse (pronounced Tree sue’r By-ease), which offers all day to day requirements, with banks, restaurants, bars, bakers, supermarkets, butcheries, pharmacies, doctors, dentists and tourist information bureau.
