Those who love nature

We had an amazing peaceful breakaway on our return trip from Spain. The views were outstanding. Tom was a great host, and the kids enjoyed sitting around the fire listening to him play his guitar and eating smores. The house had a rustic, homely charm, with everything we needed. The kids especially loved Moses the dog and Lisa the cat. We would definitely love to return, maybe on a 'working holiday' to support Tom in his vision.

Situated in a beautiful secluded place overlooking the valley. Tom chooses to live in harmony with nature and this is reflected in everything around the property. We had a very relaxing stay and look forward to returning to stay for longer.

We booked Tom's place as a quiet retreat for our family (2 adults, 3 teenagers). It was a wonderful stay. The winding road takes you up the mountainside to this quiet home with views in both directions. We stayed in the spring (late March) when the grass was green but the leaves were not yet on the trees. The weather was pleasant, and the homes unique fireplace kept us warm on the crisp evenings. The place was perfect for our family, with one bedroom for the parents and another for the teens. The teens even had a separate fireplace that we used on two of evenings. The hot shower was very refreshing, and we utilized the jacuzzi tub on one occasion. The kitchen was well stocked with all the needed cookware for us to cook dinner there for one of the evenings, and we had a lovely dinner in Saint-Girons (25 min) for another evening. We enjoyed day trips to Foix, Grotte du Mas d-Azil, Alus-les-Bains and especially enjoyed the local markets on Friday and Saturday mornings. Tom was a very kind host who did everything he could to make our stay comfortable. If you're looking for luxury accommodations in the hustle and bustle of the city, this is not the place for you. But if you want a rustic, charming, comfortable and affordable place away from it all, yet within driving distance of the local sites, we recommend Gite Bruychous.

Cette maison nous rappelle les habitations de nos grand-parents, c'est dépaysant. Entretien général à faire intérieur/extérieur pour profiter pleinement de ce gîte.
