Unusual, secluded barns nestled in the Pyrenees forest from Sunday to Sunday

Welcome to Les Granges de Lascostes!

Welcome "into the wild", you will appreciate the calm of the forest, the breathtaking view on the bottom of the secret and magical Louron Valley ... my barns are comfortable but not luxurious so come and discover my world where the iPad has been replaced by live videos of deer and hinds, Wi Fi by the whistling of marmots, you will be alone in nature to enjoy a break made in the Pyrenees (4G works very well for your mobile phone)!

My name is Véronique Minozzo, I am the owner. In principle, it's me who comes to welcome you and I live 120km away so I try to travel during the day. Arrivals are at 12:00 or 13:00 at the foot of the houses and departures at 10:00 or 11:00 at the foot of the houses. Given the unusual nature of the place, as soon as you make your reservation, I will contact you by Whatsapp to chat with you by videoconference. My number is 06 85 91 13 54.

IN SHORT

One of our bestsellers near Loudenvielle! With a terrace, Gites les Granges Las Costes (5 or 4 people depending on the house) is located in the mountains at an altitude of 1100m near Loudenvielle as the crow flies, less than 1.3 km from the Balnéa spa and 25 km from Lake Oô and the NEOUVIELLE PARC NATIONAL des PYRENEES reserve. Live to the rhythm of the wild mountain and its seasons: mushrooms, wild flowers, deer slab, wild strawberry pickings ... If you are lucky, you can see the owner of the place, our friend the dormouse who from now on rents for free my sheepfold for the year !!!!

Logement médiocre pour la saison hivernale
Logement très mal chauffé, pas adapté pour des enfants en bas âge, et mal équipé. Une facture d'électricité très importante pour 5jours passés en Décembre. La propreté n'est pas là, ni le confort. Nous ne relouerons pas à cette adresse.

Sérénité avec jolie vue
Un mignon petit gîte au calme avec vue sur les montagnes apaisantes et ressourçantes. Propriétaire disponible et remise des clés fluide. De jolies balades et randonnées à proximité avec des sites à ne pas rater, sans oublier Balnéa à deux pas pour une détente optimale !

Avis sur la location, mitigé
Accès à la grange rédhibitoire Propreté limite, présence d'excréments de souris dans certaines pièces Manque cruellement d'ustensibles dans la cuisine. Renouvellement du mobilier à prévoir, (canapé défoncé, transat cassé...) Tarif trop élevé par rapport aux prestations affichées. Néanmoins un accueil très chaleureux, merci à Chantal et Éric

Nous avons passé une excellente semaine en famille dans cette bergerie. Nous y avons trouvé ce que nous cherchions, un lieu au calme, en pleine nature. La maison est spacieuse, confortable et authentique. La vue est superbe (les repas sur la terrasse avec le panorama : top) . Le village de Loudenvielle avec tous ses services est tout près. Il y'a de belles balades à faire en partant directement de la maison, et de superbes randonnées en montagne dans la vallée du Louron et les vallées voisines. Un gîte que je recommande.

Deux étoiles parce que l'endroit est magnifique, au calme et dans un environnement vraiment très agréable. Pour le reste, on est loin de la description proposée. Le chemin forestier est présenté comme "entretenu" mais c'est un chemin de pierres avec de très grosses ornières mettant à mal les suspensions et les pneus, suivi par un chemin de terre. Heureusement il n'a pas plu, sinon nous n'aurions pas pu rejoindre/quitter le gîte. Nous occupions à deux le gîtes prévu pour 5 personnes. Que cette ancienne bergerie soit sombre c'est normal, mais il est facile d'y remédier par un éclairage approprié. Les 5 spots type "économique" pour tout le rez de chaussée n'auraient pas permis une lecture agréable notamment. Quelques spots ou lampes LED n'auraient pas nuis à la consommation d'électricité mais auraient permis d'y voir un peu plus clair. Le confort "moderne" doit l'être compris au sens des années 1980 : un divan 2 places (pour un gîte de 5 personnes !), aux coussins défoncés et au revêtement déchiré, le tout caché par une sorte de petite couverture, un frigo bruyant et qui coule, la télévision raccordée au décodeur par un câble péritel donnant une image médiocre (prévoyez un câble HDMI, ça change tout ! sauf la ligne rose au milieu de l'écran). Quant à la "douche", ce n'est en fait qu'un pommeau vieillot sans attache murale avec un tuyaux relativement court – on se lave assis dans une baignoire exigüe. En espérant que les voisins du gîte du dessous ne passent pas à ce moment, il n'y a pas de rideau et le chemin passe juste à côté de la fenêtre... Il y a deux terrasses, mais un seul transat taille "enfant" (datant aussi des années 80' !) – pour 5 personnes je le rappelle. Donc, on en "profite" que sur les chaises prévues pour les repas. Reste les WC... imaginez devoir jeter le papier usagé dans une poubelle pour ménager la fosse septique, par un temps caniculaire... oups bonjour les odeurs (et les mouches ! déjà très présente en temps normal). Enfin, un aspirateur qui doit également dater des années 80. Même après avoir complètement nettoyé les filtres et remplacé le sac, il surchauffe et s'éteint toutes les 2 minutes, très pratique pour nettoyer tout le gîte comme demandé ! Bref, une situation idyllique, mais au "confort" plus que spartiate – à privilégier si vous ne prévoyez pas d'y séjourner mais de l'utiliser comme point de chute entre deux randonnées.

Nous avons passé de belles vacances car la région est magnifique et le beau temps était de la partie. Par contre, quelques remarques pour la location (petite grange) : accès vraiment difficile si voiture pas adéquate (voiture courte, haute, traction avant et pas automatique !!). Le rez-de-chaussée sent l'humidité (humidité constante en bas), le matelas du grand lit déborde du cadre de lit et est super mou -> impossible d'y dormir; nous avons dû dormir sur les lits d'enfants de la chambre d'à côté. Pas de transat la 1è semaine pour se mettre sur la terrasse. Pas de carpette pour les pieds dans la salle de bains. Vaisselle parcimonieuse (tasses et verres - la propriétaire nous en a ramenés pour la 2è semaine; pas de lave-salade, pas de petit couteau,...). Bref, par rapport au prix, on aurait aimé un peu plus de 'confort pratique' pour compenser la rusticité de l'endroit qui est très joli... Un détail aussi pour nous qui aimons le calme... : tout le bruit de la vallée (travaux, centrale électrique, circulation,...) résonne jusqu'au chalet, et donc à cause de cela, on n'entendait finalement jamais le silence à la maison. Mais si vous n'avez pas peur de rouler un peu pour rejoindre des départs de randonnées, la région vaut vraiment la peine...
