Super sejour. Maison au top. Equipements parfaits... rien a critiquer...sauf la neige qui m'a occasionnee une belle dechirure musculaire...mais la maison n'y ai pour rien. A tres bientot et encore merci.
Maison tres cosy et agreable.
Tres bien aménagée pour 12 personnes avec beaucoup d'espace.
Bien située dans le village, permettant l'acces aux commerces à pied.
C'est toujours un plaisir de retrouver cette belle maison, spacieuse, permettant de donner à chacun une intimité. Située dans le coeur du village, près de tous les commerces, et du cinéma. Nous la conseillons pour des vacances familiales ou entre amis. Un parking se trouve juste devant la maison.
The house is truly great. The children, in particular, loved the house. Charles was great, very helpful. We had some very good meals and the weather was spectacular. Fabulous holiday.
Belle maison de vacances familiales, mais qu'il faudrait restaurer. la literie est à revoir, surtout la chambre du 2è étage, matelas à changer.
Aspirateur du 2è qui ne fonctionne pas.
Mais c'est une maison spacieuse, très bien située et bien équipée globalement.
Grande maison au centre du village, proche des commerces et avec un parking public devant, ideale pour 2 a 3 familles ensemble. Propre et pratique, plusieurs randonnées autour. Nous avons passé de tres bonne vacances.
La zona es maravillosa para ciclistas, al pie de tourmalet, luz ardiden, Tromousse, gavarnie... La casa perfecta, tiene todos los servicios q necesites. Ya habíamos ido y repetimos este año.
Another stay at this fantastic property. So much space and flexibility to make sleeping arrangements work perfectly for 3 families. The location of the house is superb for walking into Luz and just 15 minutes drive to the ski resort. Everything you could want is provided, furnishings and bedding etc. all high quality, kitchen fully equipped. Can't wait to stay again, thank you Geoff and Jude.
Un emplacement de rêve, une maison douillette et très bien décorée, des équipements de grande qualité : tout ce ceci résume cette maison dans laquelle nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour en famille! tout le monde avait sa place et nous pouvions nous retrouver après la journée de ski dans une grande pièce de vie chaleureuse : le rêve! encore merci!
Maison en tous points conforme à la description et aux photos très confortable et très bien située pour découvrir les Hautes Pyrénées et le Pays Toy en particulier.
Maison très agréable et bien agencée : un étage pour les adultes et un pour les enfants. Très propre à l'arrivée et idéalement située avec des ados (piscine, ciné et commerces à proximité). Et des tas d'activités aux alentours !
Je recommande vivement.
Owner and local contact were unfailingly helpful and accommodating.
Lovely house centrally located in this attractive and surprisingly busy little Pyrenean town with a selection of cafes, bars and restaurants.
La casa es una gozada...grande y tiene de todo... Éramos 10 personas y sobraba espacio para todo.pese a que llevábamos de todo..allí había cualquier cosa que necesitarás..una gozada... volveremos..las mejores vacaciones que he pasado en mi vida y seguro que lo mismo mis acompañantes
Great flexible house with beds and bedrooms in a fabulous location.

About the host
Hosted by Geoff Key
I am a retired UK pharmacist living in the Brecon Beacons in Wales where I am a member of the local Mountain Rescue team. I love the mountains and the associated activities of mountaineering and skiing. I love to visit Luz St Sauveur as often as possible and think of it as a personal haven.
What makes this property unique
The house is very close to shops, bars, and restaurants and yet it is possible to set off for a days walk in the mountains straight from the house front door. The house is also only 15 to 20 mins drive from two ski resorts, or 5 mins walk to the free ski station shuttle service. It can sleep 14 guests and has been classified by the local authority as 4 star for 14 people. It is unusual for accommodation of this size to be so centrally situated to essential amenities. The house is cosy, log fire warm in the winter and thick stone wall cool in the summer and in a very quiet area of town.
