General overview
The house is warm, full of colors.
In the center of the village you will find a bakery, a butcher, a grocery store and a market on Tuesday mornings and a restaurant as well as a playground for children, football and basketball stadiums. At 500 meters there is also a supermarket. You are also close to a road bike along the Gave. I put at your disposal 2 bicycles. Easy to kayak nearby.
A few minutes by bike or car you are in Pau where you can visit the castle of King Henri 4. The countryside is also very beautiful with many medieval villages and vineyards (JuranΓ§on wine). You can easily spend a day in the Pyrenees where many hikes await you. You prefer the ocean: you can also spend a day on the Atlantic coast. The town of Lourdes is a 40 minute drive away, there are caves nearby. I will give you all my addresses and favorite places π
The space
On the ground floor you will find a large kitchen where it is pleasant to cook and spend time and a living room where you can relax. There are also toilets. Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms: one with a 160 cm bed and access to the balcony, a small bedroom with a 140 cm futon and the third with two 90 cm beds and a work area. There is also the bathroom with WC. The house has no garden.
Guest access
The house has one floor. You can park one car in the courtyard and another very easily on the street.
Notes
The house is in a very nice small condominium.

I can guide you in the city of Pau and the surrounding area.
We haven't been there yet. But we are looking forward to meeting you and finding your dream home in Gelos France.
I stayed 14 days in Valerieβs house and we had a pleasant stay there.
It was clean and had perfect atmosphere for a relax stay.
She is planning some renovations.
Communication was super good.
We had a little video chat beforehand.
She took great care of our place too while we where away and she took good care of my car Bruce.
She said she had not green fingers so we asked our son to take care of the garden.
I would definitely recommend her as your future exchange
Valerie was a great guest and host !

Luciana and Alex's apartment is very pleasant and very well located for visiting London. Many buses pass very close to the apartment. The neighborhood is pleasant. I enjoyed the company of Eros.
Luciana and Alex took care of my house. I met Luciana who is a very nice person. She gave me useful tips for visiting London.
What a great experience for my first exchange! Claudine and Paul's house is very pleasant, original and tastefully decorated with a large terrace where it is pleasant to eat and dream. It is located in a very nice area, close to public transport. We enjoyed the company of Bruce, Claudine and Paul's cat. The city of Antwerp and the neighboring towns are very beautiful and it is very easy to get around by bike.
Claudine and Paul are perfect guests, they are very kind, attentive. I found my flowery house, they did DIY work and I found beautiful gifts when I returned. I feel like I've known them for a long time, we talked a lot and I hope to see them again in France, Belgium...or elsewhere.
I live alone in a small village near Pau. I am in my fifties, I am a history and geography teacher. I like to travel, discover new places, walk (in nature and cities) and ride my bike.
