Maison du Sel Royale is a flawless restoration of a 19th century 'Maison de Maitre', updated with a wealth of modern comforts and amenities to create a French holiday rental of the highest standard.
Boasting seven individually styled double bedrooms, each with their own en-suite bathroom, Maison du Sel Royale is an immaculate mansion complete with swimming pool, tennis court and private lawns. The house sits within a landscape dotted with historic towns and quaint little villages, at the base of the Pyrenees amid lush meadows, thick green forests and meandering rivers – this is the Béarn des Gaves.
This property offers everything you could ask for in a luxury holiday or special celebration, with several large dining areas including a large covered terrace area with barbecue, table and chairs.
Alternatively, for those who seek adventure on their travels, the region could not be more accommodating, with nearby river-based watersports, walking and hiking routes and plenty of mountain biking trails.
Meanwhile, discover pretty villages such as nearby Laàs, home to the wonderful Château de Laàs, and historic Navarrenx, officially classified as one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’. Visit a thermal spa in picturesque Salies-de-Béarn and stroll by the river in medieval Sauveterre-de-Béarn. What’s more the Gave d’Oloron is fantastic for fishing and is known for its salmon – the Saumonade Fête takes place annually in Navarrenx.
Further afield, play golf at the highly-regarded Pau Golf Club, visit the world-famous pilgrimage destination of Lourdes, head into the mountains for winter skiing in the Pyrenees or venture to the coast for sand dunes, surfing and seaside activities around Biarritz, Capbreton and Hossegor, all reached in just over an hour by car.
