On the slopes of the vineyards of Jurançon in the foothills of the Pyrenees, the barn apartment is ideal accommodation for those in search of a peaceful haven not too far from French life. Just 10 minutes from the lovely town of Pau with its chateau, shops and restaurants, and an easy drive from the mountains, you have the best of both worlds.
Suitable for individuals, couples or families, you are perfectly situated to explore all aspects of this beautiful region or just to enjoy the peace and beauty of your surroundings. There are wine tours on your doorstep and you are 40 minutes from Lourdes in one direction and from the salt waters of Salies de Bearn in the other as well as within reach of the Atlantic coast at Biarritz and Saint Jean de Luz.
Your accommodation is cosy but stylish with all that you need for an easy and enjoyable stay including a wood-burner for the cooler months. It is beautifully clean with 2 ensuite bedrooms and a vaulted central living area with well-equipped kitchen. There is a washing machine for your use in the separate laundry room. Guests agree that it is very reasonably priced for the standard of accommodation. Linen is all provided and normal electricity use is included. Heating costs only are supplementary, and optional cleaning if you choose not to do it yourself.
The apartment is secluded and private with plenty of green space all around. The woodlands and stream are yours to enjoy and the splendid views of the Pyrenees from the lane are breathtaking. There is loads of space for children to let off steam with a trampoline and table tennis.
You also have access to the beautiful yoga and meditation room situated in a separate converted barn if wished and it is possible to have yoga classes and other instruction and treatments on site if you are interested. Healing retreats and silent retreats are possible by arrangement .
Nearest airports are Pau, Lourdes and Biarritz but Toulouse and Bordeaux are also a straightforward drive or train ride away.
We can sometimes welcome animals but please contact us about guidelines and please note that we have animals on site. Likewise, we can occasionally provide breakfast, and vegetarian/vegan meals, depending on the time of year and our availability. Just ask if you are interested.
You cannot help but feel relaxed and replenished after a stay in The Barn Apartment so please just give me a call or email me and I will be happy to help.

Cette grange est superbement aménagée avec un confort optimable et beucoup de soins dans la décoration.Jacqueline demande a ses vacnciers d'être scupuleux à la hauteur du service offert.Beaucoup de documentation à disposition dans un éventail de domaines pour satisfaire aux centres d'intérêt de chacun.C'est une belle adresse à recommander.
Logement impeccable pour une famille de 4 personnes. Le calme de la campagne tout en étant à 10-15 mn de voiture du centre de Pau. Idéal pour visiter le vignoble local, randonner dans la vallée d'Ossau, à 30 mn du zoo d'Asson, de Bétharram et d'Oloron sainte Marie. Accueil chaleureux et discret de Jacqueline et Anthony.

Charming rental in rural France but near city
We fully enjoyed our nine day stay at Loustalot, using it as a pied a terre to explore Basque country and the Pyrenees. I believe we are the first reviewers on VRBO although owners have been renting this beautifully remodelled barn for years. Everything is charming, very comfortable, close to Pau for restaurants etc and to shopping if self-catering. Accommodations were just as pictured and met all our needs. The hosts are wonderfully welcoming and all was truly just as it should be. We would definitely stay again and recommend this property very highly.

About the host
Hosted by Jacqueline
Originally from London, we moved to France with our 3 children in 2004. We are English teachers as well as yoga and meditation instructors, amongst other things...
Why they chose this property
We were drawn by the original charm of this 16th century farmhouse and its magical woodlands and the opportunity it gave to share this special place with others.
What makes this property unique
We are so close to town and yet peaceful and secluded with the gardens, the woodland, the pretty stream, the animals and the wonderful walks with spectacular mountain views. Having a dedicated yoga and meditation studio on site makes it even more special.
