Gite on the edge of the Arac in a green setting with swimming pool

At the heart of the Pyrenees Ariégeoises Regional Nature Park we offer on the site of the Moulin d'Icart a cottage of 4 people without vis-à-vis, adjoining our house with independent access, a contemporary, comfortable and bright interior. You will return by a bay window in the room of life with open kitchen and all the comfort (classification 3epis labellized écogeste by gite of France) a bathroom with wc completes this RDC then an internal staircase will take you upstairs on a vast landing which gives on two rooms (one with a bed of 160, the other with 2 beds of 90), a small room of bath with toilet and an exit on a balcony seen on the river.
It is a place of relaxation and healing in a setting of greenery and water. You will enjoy direct access to the banks of the Arac, a shaded park with a swimming pool (12m x 4.5m and 1m10 to 2m20 deep) and a private tennis court
It is also the starting point for hikers on foot or by bike. You can enjoy many activities such as caving, white water sports, lake and river fishing, monorail sledding and mountain karting in the summer at the resort of Guzet and enjoy its ski area in winter. Throughout the year the thermal baths of Aulus offer a wellness and aqua relaxation area. On the site of the Etang de Lers you can also learn or practice all year round orientation techniques and in winter you can go cross-country skiing, sledding and snowshoeing. In Saint Lizier you can visit the cathedral, the bishops' palace and the old village. Many other villages are worth a visit for their architectural heritage, their exhibitions, markets or entertainment
We will be delighted to welcome you

Beautiful, relaxing location and lovely accomodation

We loved our stay in Castet d'Aleu. The setting is idyllic, by a river in the trees with the sound of water rushing by. A lovely swimming pool, tennis court and table tennis to occupy the teenager and the accommodation was nicely furnished, spacious and well equipped. Isabelle was very welcoming and helpful despite our lack of ability to speak French! A wonderful holiday.

Week-end en famille

Un agréable petit sejour dans ce lieu accueillant. La propriétaire a été arrangeante par rapport au fait que nous soyons cinq pour un logement prévu pour quatre, encore merci pour cela. Il faisait un peu trop froid dans la pièce principale en ces matins de fin décembre mais pour un week-end je n'ai pas osé demander à ce que le chauffage soit augmenté. Peut-être reviendrons-nous à la belle saison pour profiter de la fraîcheur de la rivière qui passe le long de la propriété.

Vacances en famille

Nous avons passé un bon moment en famille. La maison est très agréable et le jardin incroyable. Une grande piscine, un terrain de tennis, une table de ping-pong, un hamac, un accès à la rivière voisine pour tremper les pieds, les enfants étaient ravis! Un grand merci à Isabelle pour son accueil et ses délicieux légumes du potager. Un havre de paix parfait pour se reposer!

Kleines Paradies am Fluss

Wir haben die schöne Fereinwohnung, den großen Pool (der den ganzen Tag Sonne hat) und den schönen Park mit den vielen vielen Eidechsen sehr genossen. Nicht zu vergessen der Tennisplatz und die Tischtennisplatte, die wir jeden Tag benutzten. Man kann sowohl gleich vom Ort aus oder mit 20-30 Minuten Anfahrt (Auto) schöne Wandertouren mit unterschiedlichem Anspruch unternehmen. In der Ferienwohnung ist ein toller Ordner zum Aussuchen der Wanderungen. Es war ein rundum schöne Zeit im "Gite d`Arac", uns hat es an Nichts gefehlt. Auch die Zucchini aus dem eigenem Garten waren sehr lecker. Herzlichen Dank an Isabelle und Claude für den schönen Aufenthalt! Claudia, Rüdiger, Ricarda und Fabian

Havre de paix

Quelques jours « au vert » un lieu plein de charme et bucolique. Accueil attentionné et d’une grande gentillesse par la propriétaire. Tout est neuf, bien agencé, calme et beau. Villages et commerces à proximité, un très bel endroit où se poser en famille ou entre amis. La rivière à côté est un enchantement :-))

Am rauschenden Bach

Die FeWo ist schön gelegen, bietet viel Platz und ist gut ausgestattet. Beschreibung und Bilder entsprechen der Realität, es ist nichts hinzuzufügen. Wir haben Freunde besucht, die in der Nähe wohnen. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind nach unserer Erfahrung nicht zu Fuss zu erreichen. Ansonsten haben wir uns wohl gefühlt.

Un cadre magnifique

Ce gîte invite au repos, au calme et à la détente, mais aussi à de belles découvertes. Des randonnées aux paysages époustouflants, des ballades à Saint Lizier, le marché de Saint Girons et bien d autres. Les propriétaires sont accueillants et discrets. Ces vacances étaient parfaites.

Très agréable accueil par Isabelle et Claude, avec un beau projet pour le site. Le gîte est fonctionnel, bien équipé, et très agréable. Dans une région verdoyante et à proximité de nombreuses randonnées tout niveau. La piscine et la rivière sont des +! Il ne nous a manqué que le soleil... Nous reviendrons!
