About this house rental

A Puntos sits at the edge of the small hamlet of Mont de Marrast at the end of a long private drive. The house and gardens are completely private, with 2.5 acres of landscaped grounds to explore and enjoy.

The gardens are a real part of the holiday rather than simply somewhere around the house. There is room for children to play outdoor games while others relax nearby, along with quieter corners for reading or enjoying a glass of wine. The result is a setting that works equally well for family time, gatherings with friends or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of your surroundings as a couple.

The private salt water pool has its own generous terrace with eight loungers and a shaded pergola with comfortable seating. It is a space for long, unhurried days with swimming, reading, playing games or simply enjoying the countryside.

The main south-facing outdoor kitchen leads directly from the kitchen through French doors and is at the heart of everyday life at A Puntos. There is a large dining table for eight, comfortable shaded seating and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a barbecue, pizza oven, plancha and fridge. Everything is close at hand, making it easy to prepare lunch, pour a drink and stay outside rather than constantly moving between the kitchen and garden.

It is equally suited to a slow breakfast, a long lunch that runs into the afternoon or dinner outside as the sun goes down. A second terrace at the front of the house provides a quieter spot overlooking the gardens, perfect for morning coffee, reading or an evening drink.

Inside, A Puntos combines the character of a traditional French farmhouse with the comfort and quality of a well-equipped modern home. The kitchen comfortably seats eight and has the workspace and equipment needed to cook properly for a group rather than simply prepare holiday basics. There is also a Sage coffee machine, a detail guests have specifically picked out in their reviews.

The sitting room provides a comfortable alternative when you want to get out of the sun or settle in for the evening, with a 45-inch Panasonic TV, Amazon Fire TV Stick, Sonos sound system and log burner.

The four bedrooms are individually furnished and complemented by two well-appointed bathrooms. Three bedrooms have air conditioning, providing comfortable sleeping conditions during the warmer summer months.

Fibre broadband with a mesh Wi-Fi system is available throughout the house, providing a strong and reliable connection wherever you are.

A Puntos has been designed to make the most of the way people actually want to spend their holiday. Cook together, eat outside, spend the afternoon by the pool, let the children play in the garden, enjoy the outdoor games or find a quiet corner and do absolutely nothing.

And it is often the details guests remember most: the proper coffee in the morning, the outdoor fridge when you are settled on the terrace, the games that keep everyone entertained and the freedom to spend your time exactly as you want. Whether you come for time together or simply to enjoy having space and privacy, A Puntos gives you plenty of both.

We spent a fantastic 2 weeks at A Puntos. The house, gardens, views and pool were incredible and were a wonderful base for our stay. We were 2 families with 4 young children between us.Graeme and Kirsty were very accommodating and communication was brilliant and very helpful. The house is very well equipped (though maybe a few more plastic glasses, plates and bowls would be good with kids in mind) and the Decor etc has obviously been done with lots of love and care. It really felt like a home from home. Location wise it is a bit further of a drive than we’re used to but all well worth it. The local village was also only 10min drive And really lovely. They had a summer fair on while we were there which the kids loved. We Did canoeing in mirande, a visit to peak du midi, some road cycling in the Pyrenees and visited the animal park near Lourdes which was a big hit with the kids. Such was beautiful and the jazz festival in Marcia’s was fun too. So lots to do and see as well as being able to enjoy lazy days soaking up the sun and views by the pool. Thank you Graeme and Kirsty for a fantastic holiday.

The farmhouse is beautifully renovated, the kitchen is well equipped, all mod-cons, great wifi. The pool is fantastic! The location is relatively remote, in a peaceful spot nestled between two very small villages. The local town (Tries) has everything you need for daily essentials, butcher, bakers, grocers, plus an Intermarche. For larger supermarkets (hypermarkets), various options are further afield near Auch or Tarbes. Grand Frais in Tarbes was fun. There are plenty of fantastic local markets, we enjoyed Mirande and the huge market at Lannemezan, which also seems to have some good restaurant options. Marciac is a beautiful town, and a must when the Jazz festival is on, there's lots to see and free music in the main square and a few other locations in town. We enjoyed some trips to the nearby Castelnau-Magnoac which has a good little market, a reservoir with pedalos (about 5km walk around it), and a fantastic bakery/patisserie La P'tite Boheme We made a couple of day trips to the Pyrenees, although most destinations in the mountains are a couple of hours drive each way. Graeme and Kirsty stay next door (next house along) and were never intrusive but were available to help when we needed it, and have a wealth of local knowledge to share. Thanks both for helping make it an awesome and memorable holiday for all of us!

Many times in the past we have been disappointed on arrival at a house that has sounded perfect in the advertising, but not this time. For us this was the perfect spot. It is a beautifully appointed house in a wonderful position. Lying by the pool in complete silence looking out across farmland to the Pyrenees, is all we did and all that we wanted to do. There is, of course, plenty of good eating in the pretty villages around - Marciac and Bassoues, for example - and the usual excellent markets for various foods. The house is very well equipped with every gadget and device - good dishwasher, good washing machine, good TV, good lighting and excellent bathrooms. Outside there is a beautiful pool with high quality pool furniture all set in a large garden. What more can I say?

We spent a very relaxing and peaceful week at this wonderful old farmhouse. It's in a great location and has stunning views of the Pyrenees from the amazing swimming pool where we spent a lot of time due to the fantastic weather. The farmhouse itself is full of character, is very well equipped and very clean. We particularly enjoyed dining on the terrace in the evenings with a cold beer. We made trips to local markets, to Pic du Midi and also the Cirque de Gavarnie.
