l’auberginine

A gîte in the heart of nature and the Pyrenean Piedmont, just a stone's throw from Aspet, in Arbon! Gîte L'Auberginine sleeps up to 7 people.

The Gîte L'Auberginine is a haven of peace in the heart of nature, facing the Pic de Cagire! This beautiful, fully renovated gîte is located in a small hamlet, 700 metres above sea level, away from the small village of Arbon. It's ideal for a family holiday in the fresh air of the Pyrenees. It comprises, on the ground floor, a beautiful living room (TV, wood-burning stove), a large fully-equipped kitchen with dining area (microwave, oven, hob, dishwasher, fridge) and a utility room. There is access to the garden (barbecue, garden furniture) so you can enjoy the peaceful surroundings. A large bedroom with double bed is also located on the ground floor, as is the bathroom (shower) with Tunisian tiles! Upstairs is an attic dormitory with 3 single beds and 1 double bed (140cm), plus a children's play area. In the hamlet, the owners have another gîte that sleeps 6. Ideal for family reunions! The gîte is 10 minutes from the village of Aspet, where you'll find all the amenities you need (shops, craftsmen, Wednesday and Saturday markets, pharmacy), as well as a communal swimming pool in summer, mountain bike trailheads, orienteering courses and potholing. The gîte is ideally situated for hiking along the footpaths of the Piedmont region, but also towards the first peaks of the Pyrenees (Cagire, Escalette, Gar, Paloumère massifs). The first Pyrenean passes are nearby (Col des Ares, Portet-d'Aspet, Menté) for cycling enthusiasts. The ancient medieval town of Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges and the spa town of Salies-du-Salat are 30 minutes away, as is the Arbas valley and its many outdoor activities (caving, paragliding, mountain walks, horse-riding, donkey trekking, etc.). Just 35 minutes away is the mountain resort of Le Mourtis, where you can enjoy skiing, snowshoeing, dog-sledding and tobogganing in winter. In summer, there's also hiking and canoe-trekking. Extra service: cyclists welcome! Outside water point, small repair equipment, secure garage
