In a charming old farmhouse situated at the foot of the Pic de Nore, just a stone’s throw from the GR36, the walking trails and Lake Birotos – where you can go for a swim – you’ll be able to enjoy the peace and beauty of the countryside.

This farmhouse, divided into three sections, is home to the ‘Jaune’ gîte, a semi-detached family home, flanked by the owners’ house and the small ‘La Main Gauche’ gîte.

The ‘Jaune’ gîte is the larger of the two. Decorated with paintings by a Belgian artist, it retains its old-world charm with its exposed beams. A beautiful, fully equipped kitchen will delight food lovers, whether beginners or experienced cooks. You’ll have one bedroom with a double bed and a second bedroom with three beds, including a bunk bed. This large, spacious gîte is ideal for families or groups, whether they’re sports enthusiasts or artists. You’ll be staying in a cosy and welcoming place. In summer, settle down under the pergola to enjoy a meal al fresco. In winter, the fire in the stove will keep you warm and create that typical mountain evening atmosphere.

For all your festive occasions throughout the year, a unique venue with a bar-like atmosphere, featuring an open stage and a small adjoining kitchen, is sure to delight you. This venue is also a real find for groups of musicians looking for a holiday spot whilst having the chance to rehearse on site.

Indeed, Domaine La Source et la Sorcière is also an ideal venue for groups, whether they’re musicians, sports enthusiasts or gathering for a family reunion. Thanks to the two side-by-side holiday cottages, the ‘Gîte Jaune’ and ‘La Main Gauche’, accommodating 6 and 4 people respectively, you can enjoy your privacy whilst still coming together in the various communal areas.

A place not to be missed, particularly for groups of horse riders: paddocks can be set up and a meadow is at your disposal.

Finally, the warm and welcoming owners, Yan and Suzi, also offer a table d’hôtes option, with the choice of breakfast and an evening meal, to be requested in advance.
