About this cottage rental

Navarrenx has the "Prettiest villages in France" seal of approval.
A small, completely renovated house, in a typical local style has earned a 3-épi classification under the new rules of the 'Gîtes de France' association. It lies in a market town of an authentic, pastoral village in the Oloron mountain stream valley. Set on the borders or Béarn and the Basque Country, halfway between the sea and the mountain. We are 1.5 km away from Navarrenx city centre. Navarrenx itself is a medieval town known as the salmon fishing capital of the world and an eco-friendly holiday destination listed by the Station Verte de Vancances organisation. From September 2014, it is also among the closed, and prestigious, circle of France's prettiest villages (Plus Beaux Villages de France).
The covered terrace with garden furniture and a barbecue gives onto a beautiful garden adorned with trees and flowers. It is completely fenced-in and much appreciated. A walking trail starts right on the gite's doorstep. Herds of cattle and ewes cross the village. Other highlights include the cuisine and the friendly inns with menus that come to around € 11. There are farmer's markets and stands selling fresh produce.
The surrounding hills have a plethora of hiking trails. You can gaze at the Pyrenees from the stunning viewpoints.
Bearn des Gaves listed as a region rich in art and history (Pays d'Art d'Histoire) by the French Culture Ministry, is the new tourist destination between Béarn and the Basque Country. Here the art of living is set back from the vast traffic networks at the heart of an unspoilt natural setting. The latest holidaymaker marvelled that time seems to stand still here in the valley of the Oloron mountain streams.
There are family-run inns, farmers markets, and walking trails. Discover the festivals, markets, and concerts, as well as the summer entertainment. Recreational line-fishing; the Jurançon AOC wine route; and guided tours of the medieval sites, castles and mansions. Downhill trips on the mountain streams include rafting and kayaking the 20 km from Navarrenx to Sauveterre-de-Béarn. There are places to swim and sports to fish trout and salmon. This is a perfect place for relaxing holidays getting in touch with nature. Discover the rich history of both Béarn and the Basque Country.

Even though we didn't arrive until late, Chantal was there to greet us and to show us around the cottage. M.Sarsiat had very kindly left water, wine, bread and assorted local charcuterie from the store in Navarrenx - absolutely delicious. The cottage had everything that one could hope for and is situated in a lovely tranquil corner of Jasses - the garden is beautiful and it was great to be able to sit out and relax with a glass in the evenings. M Sarsiat was charming, very helpful and went out of his way to make us feel welcome and looked after. Would definitely stay there again and fully intend to.

We enjoyed a 12 day stay at Gîte Sarsiat with it's beautiful garden and cosy interior. The gîte is situated just outside the lovely historic walled town of Navarrenx - a perfect base for exploring the Béarn des Gaves and the Pyrenees. The accommodation is on a very quiet side road - the main traffic was the cows being led to and back from the fields in the morning and evening. It is well furnished with good sized bedrooms and a cosy lounge. There's a nice dining area inside and also a covered dining area and BBQ outside where we ate most evenings. The owner met us on arrival and was really keen to ensure we had a comfortable stay. There was local wine, bread, water and produce from the Charcuterie in Navarrenx in our fridge on arrival. A perfect place to relax. Nous avons apprécié un séjour de 12 jours au gîte Sarsiat avec son beau jardin et son intérieur confortable. Le gîte est situé juste à l'extérieur de la charmante ville fortifiée historique de Navarrenx-un point de départ idéal pour explorer le Béarn des Gaves et les Pyrénées. L'hébergement est sur une route latérale très calme-le trafic principal était les vaches étant conduit à et en arrière des champs le matin et le soir. Il est bien meublé avec des chambres de bonne taille et un salon confortable. Il y a une belle salle à manger à l'intérieur et aussi une salle à manger couverte et barbecue à l'extérieur où nous avons mangé la plupart des soirées. Le propriétaire nous a rencontrés à l'arrivée et était vraiment désireux de s'assurer que nous avons eu un séjour confortable. Il y avait du vin local, du pain, de l'eau et des produits de la charcuterie à Navarrenx dans notre frigo à l'arrivée. Un endroit parfait pour se détendre.
