Lovely gite for 4-5 in old farmhouse with great pool in beautiful countryside
Gite L’Hibiscus comfortably sleeps 4 to 5 people and is the largest of three gites forming part of Barès, a traditional farmhouse in the beautiful Haute Garonne département in Occitanie, South West France. The gîte is attached to the main house but is completely self-contained and private. It has ancient beams, wood-burning stove, its own private garden and terrace, shared use of the luxury 10 X 5m swimming pool and 1.5 hectares of grounds with stunning views of the Pyrenees. Only 50 mins from Toulouse, an hour to the Pyrenees and 75 mins to the nearest skiing. Fully equipped with two double bedrooms (one with patio doors onto the private terrace) and a single bed on the mezzanine above the beautiful beamed sitting room (suitable for adults or older children only), the gite has wi-fi, satellite TV with French and English TV stations, DVD player and selection of DVDs, its own terrace and garden within the beautiful grounds of Barès. The sitting room is the oldest part of Barès, containing the fireplace and bread oven of the original farmhouse kitchen. In Winter the wood burning stove brings the fireplace to life and creates a wonderful Winter hideaway. The beds will be made up ready for your arrival and there will be plenty of towels. In the kitchen you'll find all the essentials such as tea, coffee, sugar, salt and pepper as well as fresh bread, croissants, milk, butter, jam, ham, cheese, fruit juice and a bottle of wine. With a gas hob, microwave oven, fridge and dishwasher, pots and pans, crockery and glassware, you'll have everything you need to cook up a feast, although for Summer holidays you might prefer to use the barbecue provided on the terrace. Barès really is in the heart of the countryside, so you will need a car. The pretty market town of L'Isle en Dodon is a scenic 12 kilometer drive and has a large supermarket, shops, cafes and a Saturday morning market. We will be there to greet you, make sure you have everything you need and take care of any problems during your stay. We look forward to welcoming you to Barès!

About the host
Hosted by Gites De Bares (Gerry and Jenny)
We are Jenny and Gerry Czerniawski and we are excited to be the new owners of this beautiful traditional farmhouse. This is a very special part of France and for us it was love at first sight when we first saw this house, its wonderful land and its stunning views of the surrounding countryside and mountains. It is the perfect place to escape from our busy jobs in London. If you come here and we are not around there will always be someone here to welcome you and to make sure everything is ready for your stay. We welcome guests of all nationalities and between us we speak French, German, a little Italian, a little Spanish and even a little Korean.

What makes this property unique
At Barès you will find yourself in the heart of a stunningly beautiful, rural, farming community, unspoilt by tourism. It is a 10 minute drive to the pretty market town of L'Isle-en-Dodon where the nearest shops can be found, including a large well-stocked supermarket and a vibrant Saturday market. For a taste of the local cuisine and culture, head to Chez Jeanne La Fermière on Sunday lunchtime, or to Le Comptoir after the Saturday market in L'Isle-en-Dodon. For nightlife we recommend stargazing whilst listening to the frogs and nightingales in Spring and the crickets in Summer!
