A wooden staircase leads from the first floor landing up to the second floor, where there are two further twin bedrooms. This gite has exclusive use of the traditional Béarnaise balcony, overlooking the charming courtyard, which is adorned with colourful flowers and the spectacular mountains beyond. French doors on the ground floor lounge area lead out into its own exclusive courtyard to sit and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Both gites have use of the secluded garden, which is surrounded by the typically French countryside with an attractive swimming pool at the far end and stunning views of the mountains. Available are tables and chairs and also sunloungers by the pool and the use of a barbeque for those warm balmy evenings. The gites are superbly located in the quiet village of Issor, with just a short stroll over the pretty stream to its own bar/café and shop. But also just 10mins drive to the picturesque town of Oloron-Sainte-Marie with everything you need. A good choice of supermarkets, boutiques, cafes and restaurants and a typical French market every Friday. The bread lady delivers to the property five mornings a week opening her van doors to a wonderful mouth-watering array of fresh breads, croissants and cakes to choose from. A Wireless WiFi internet connection is available in the Courtyard Gite.

Driving directions (from airport or sea port)

From Oloron-Sainte-Marie, you are looking for the N134 south signposted Saragosse.You will go through villages with the names Bidos then Gurmencon then Asasp/Arros. When you drive through the last village of Asasp/Arros you are about 1km away from the right-hand turning to Issor.As you enter the very small village of Issor, immediately after the sharp right hand bend going into the village, look out for the left turn down a steep hill,which is opposite the church, café/bar and Mairie’s office. Follow the road, over the small bridge and we are the 3rd yellow/cream house on the left corner, with a balcony overhanging our courtyard.
