We visit a special winery on the Basque Atlantic coast, which ages its wines in the Atlantic Ocean at a depth of 15 meters. We learn about this special process and try six different “wines from the sea”.
The tasting is accompanied by delicious pintxos, which perfectly complement the aromas of the wines...
We visit the only vineyard in France that is registered as a “Monument Historique”, i.e. as a historical monument. The vines of this vineyard survived phylloxera plague in the 19th century and the autochthonous varieties today form the basis for extraordinary, rare wines.
We try wonderful wines made from these rare grapes — including wines that are not available for sale...
We experience the wine landscape of the Gers with its medieval villages and the delights made into wine from Madiran... We visit the cellar and vineyards of a small family winery that has been managing its vineyards responsibly for decades and today produces all wines organically.
We take part in a tasting of four different Madiran wines, which are perfectly accompanied by chocolate and chocolates from a small factory...
We visit the market in Bagnères de Bigorres and are inspired by the smells, flavors, colors and friendly, relaxed people of the region.
Accompanied by delicious wine, we enjoy fresh oysters or great tapas in the market hall before heading further into the mountains...
Take advantage of the flair, intimacy and peace of the small château in a small group of two or more people. Enjoy the view of the Pyrenees, the large garden, the lovingly furnished rooms and the culinary offerings.
Don't pack your bags every day — all day trips start here and return here...
Lieben Sie es,Love it durch einzigartig schöne historische Städte und Dörfer zu flanieren und das architektonische, kulturelle und historische Erbe einer faszinierenden Region zu entdecken? Allein in der Gers, der Toskana Frankreichs, warten über 1000 Schlösser, mittelalterliche Orte und beeindruckende Kirchen und Kathedralen auf Sie.
Experience nature in southwestern France with a mix of wildly romantic mountains, lovely hilly landscapes with vineyards and fascinating Atlantic coasts.
The cuisine of Occitania and Gascony owes its uniqueness to local products such as foie gras, black-footed pork, gâteau à la broche, garbures, the famous corn chicken and, above all, an ancient tradition of cooking in duck or goose fat... as well as the regional wines and the legendary Armagnac.
A swim in peace surrounded by greenery
Thanks to our hosts for their warm welcome and warmth. Thank you for your attention and helpfulness. The (stylish) house is situated in a very peaceful area...
We really enjoyed our stay. Roland and Ghomri are charming people who took great care of us. We enjoyed their touches such as the light path in the garden when we returned and the candles in the house. Our room was very comfortable and the beds were well maintained. We can only recommend it!
Magnifique, merveilleux, superb! ... Rarely have we felt as comfortable as in the two weeks with our hosts Ghomri and Roland... The quiet surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation and recreation... The Châ itself is a dream come true — tastefully furnished, with great attention to detail and an atmosphere that immediately invites you to relax. The rooms are comfortable and clean, the large garden can be shared... Particularly noteworthy are the hosts, who made our stay unforgettable with their friendliness and helpfulness...
Chateau Lesteous is a place to relax. Peace and quiet are conveyed here. The owners took good care of us. There was no wish left unfulfilled. Culinary delights. Really recommended!!!
It was the right place for us and we felt very comfortable. The hosts went out of their way for us and we left as friends. Day trips to Lourdes, Pau and Tarbes are highly recommended. I'd love to go back!
I had a really magical holiday in a caravan, in the middle of nature. It was so nice to wake up every morning to the soothing sound of birds — it made my stay really special. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and attentive... simply wonderful. Your tips for trips and hikes were super helpful and have enriched my vacation so much. I can recommend this place to anyone who loves nature and is looking for a relaxing break. Would love to come back!!!
