Luxury farmhouse with private pool and amazing mountain views.

We spent a fantastic 2 weeks at A Puntos. The house, gardens, views and pool were incredible and were a wonderful base for our stay. We were 2 families with 4 young children between us.Graeme and Kirsty were very accommodating and communication was brilliant and very helpful. The house is very well equipped (though maybe a few more plastic glasses, plates and bowls would be good with kids in mind) and the Decor etc has obviously been done with lots of love and care. It really felt like a home from home. Location wise it is a bit further of a drive than we’re used to but all well worth it. The local village was also only 10min drive And really lovely. They had a summer fair on while we were there which the kids loved. We Did canoeing in mirande, a visit to peak du midi, some road cycling in the Pyrenees and visited the animal park near Lourdes which was a big hit with the kids. Such was beautiful and the jazz festival in Marcia’s was fun too. So lots to do and see as well as being able to enjoy lazy days soaking up the sun and views by the pool. Thank you Graeme and Kirsty for a fantastic holiday.

The farmhouse is beautifully renovated, the kitchen is well equipped, all mod-cons, great wifi. The pool is fantastic! The location is relatively remote, in a peaceful spot nestled between two very small villages. The local town (Tries) has everything you need for daily essentials, butcher, bakers, grocers, plus an Intermarche. For larger supermarkets (hypermarkets), various options are further afield near Auch or Tarbes. Grand Frais in Tarbes was fun. There are plenty of fantastic local markets, we enjoyed Mirande and the huge market at Lannemezan, which also seems to have some good restaurant options. Marciac is a beautiful town, and a must when the Jazz festival is on, there's lots to see and free music in the main square and a few other locations in town. We enjoyed some trips to the nearby Castelnau-Magnoac which has a good little market, a reservoir with pedalos (about 5km walk around it), and a fantastic bakery/patisserie La P'tite Boheme We made a couple of day trips to the Pyrenees, although most destinations in the mountains are a couple of hours drive each way. Graeme and Kirsty stay next door (next house along) and were never intrusive but were available to help when we needed it, and have a wealth of local knowledge to share. Thanks both for helping make it an awesome and memorable holiday for all of us!

Many times in the past we have been disappointed on arrival at a house that has sounded perfect in the advertising, but not this time. For us this was the perfect spot. It is a beautifully appointed house in a wonderful position. Lying by the pool in complete silence looking out across farmland to the Pyrenees, is all we did and all that we wanted to do. There is, of course, plenty of good eating in the pretty villages around - Marciac and Bassoues, for example - and the usual excellent markets for various foods. The house is very well equipped with every gadget and device - good dishwasher, good washing machine, good TV, good lighting and excellent bathrooms. Outside there is a beautiful pool with high quality pool furniture all set in a large garden. What more can I say?

La maison est fidèle à la description qui en a été faite. Les hôtes sont charmants, discrets, et entretiennent le jardin et la piscine pendant que tout le monde dort encore. La literie est excellente, les salles de bains très vastes et confortables, la cuisine très bien équipée. Nous avons vraiment apprécié la salle à manger extérieure. Le terrain est immense, ce qui garantit le calme et une très très belle vue sur les Pyrennées et la magnifique campagne vallonnée. Nous avons visité la région, et avons apprécié la beauté des paysages, et l'accueils des locaux. Nous reviendrons sans doute !

We spent a very relaxing and peaceful week at this wonderful old farmhouse. It's in a great location and has stunning views of the Pyrenees from the amazing swimming pool where we spent a lot of time due to the fantastic weather. The farmhouse itself is full of character, is very well equipped and very clean. We particularly enjoyed dining on the terrace in the evenings with a cold beer. We made trips to local markets, to Pic du Midi and also the Cirque de Gavarnie.

Welcoming owners, comfortable house, stylish decoration, practical kitchen and dining arrangements, a delightful garden, fig tree full of figs, wonderful pool, fabulous views. I recommend this property to anyone. We were 6 adults and two young children. We particularly enjoyed the pizza oven and barbecue, everything was thought of. There was plentiful supply of good crockery and equipment in the kitchen, which makes catering so much easier. Graeme and Kirsty are very welcoming and gave good recommendations for things to do in the area, including trips to the nearby towns for supplies, markets, sightseeing. Also walks from the house. We had a great time and would not hesitate to return and recommend A Puntos to others.

We rented A Puntos for 6 weeks in the summer of 2018 for us and our 2 boys (age 4 and 9). The boys loved the grounds and the pool (which were immaculate) and we spent many fun filled days lazing by the pool, sauntering up to the house for leisurely lunches on the covered veranda, then quiet evening watching the stars - I have never see so many. Graeme was fantastic, sorting out any issues (such as empty gas bottle) almost immediately and always on hand to answer any questions. There is lots to do nearby, we went to pic du midi, le petit train d'Artouste, even down to San Sebastian. There are some great restaurants nearly we particularly liked Ferme AUBERGE DE Puydarieux which is great for small kids as they have a little play area, and the Racine Restaurant near Tillac. If you are there when the Jazz Festival is on in Marciac then that's an absolute must - lots of craft fairs and pop up restaurants as well as the music. In all a thoroughly enjoyable holiday.

We loved our stay at A Puntos! The farmhouse was wonderful and clean, great appliances and fantastic gardens and swimming pool. Graeme was on hand for an questions and maintained the pool daily to its wonderful standard. We traveled with our 3 year old son and paid extra for heating the pool which was worth every penny. The wonderful location and view of the Pyrenees on a clear day is absolutely stunning! There were 2 circular routes to walk with our son and my husband enjoyed daily morning runs around the town. The Intermarche supermarket at Trie was very useful and we enjoyed our daily trips to near by markets which are clearly listed in Graeme's handbook. Thank you for a wonderful stay we will look back on our holiday with great memories and hopefully we will be able to return again one day!! Sam, Stuart Robbie x
