Beautiful farmhouse + swimming pool

Nestled in a peaceful hamlet, Maison Thyarre is a large and spacious farm house full of unique rustic charm and set in enclosed, established garden with a swimming pool. It makes a great holiday home for groups or extended families (10 people). The house is a great spot for enjoying long lunches or dinner parties around the solid wood table in the kitchen, barbecues on the sheltered terrace in the garden, or simply long afternoons lounging around the pool. The gardens are entirely enclosed with river stone walls and make a real playground for children who can enjoy the swings and have plenty of space to run around and play games. Maison Thyarre is within walking distance (5 min walk) of the Saison river, a tributary of the Gave d’Oloron, one of France’s most famous rivers for salmon and trout fishing, and the part of the river near the property is excellent for paddling, swimming, barbeques and picnics. The whole house is available for guests The lovely medieval village of Sauveterre de Béarn is a five minute drive away and the chateau and monastic remains provide for interesting day trips. From the top of the village you can enjoy beautiful views over the river and the Pyrenean mountain range. The village has a supermarket, chemists, bakeries, cafés & restaurants. Other nearby villages also have their own good restaurants, and fresh food and regional favourite products can be purchased in the many traditional markets held weekly in Sauveterre-de-Béarn, Salies-de-Béarn, St Palais, St Jean-Pied-de-Port or Orthez. Maison Thyarre is a great place to rest and share good times with friends and family and its fantastic location 30 minutes from the closest Pyrenean valley and 50 minutes from the Atlantic coast, provides something for everyone.
