One of four independent holiday cottages in a tranquil setting close to the medieval spa town of Salies de Béarn in SW France. Stunning views of the valley from the large swimming pool. Ideal for discovering the beautiful Bearn and Basque regions, from the Atlantic coast to the Pyrenees mountains.
Salies is a thriving town with a range of shops, lively cafés and bars and several excellent restaurants. The bustling market takes place on Thursday morning and you can pick up some local Brebis cheese or Bayonne ham along with your fresh fruit and veg. Enjoy a stroll through the flower filled lanes or up to the Pain du Sucre to meet the llamas, donkeys and goats grazing there and take in the view over Salies to really appreciate the beautiful Béarnaise architecture.
The Béarn and Basque regions are abundant in historic sites, ancient châteaux, picturesque villages, lively markets and wonderful restaurants. The towns of Pau, Biarritz, Bayonne and St Jean de Luz are all within easy reach, as are the fabulous beaches of the Atlantic coast and the stunning Pyrénées. Golf, fishing, horse riding, tennis, white water rafting and canoeing are all available locally and the area around Domaine Lavie is excellent for walking, running and cycling. For wine lovers, a visit to Salies de Béarns last independent wine producer, Domaine Lapeyre et Guilhemas, is a must, together with visits to the neighbouring appellations of Jurançon and Irouléguy.

Owner
Hi, I'm Julie and I live at Domaine Lavie with my husband Ian and our 3 sons. Moving the France (from the UK) was the fulfilment of a long held dream of a different lifestyle in a warmer climate where summer barbecues are guaranteed.
