Ken and Shona are wonderful hosts

Ken and Shona welcome was awesome, very responsive, immediately addressed the Internet access issue after the storm strike and any other request we made (not too many I hope). Ideally located between mountains and sea. Spacious enough for the 6 of us and the wood was readied for the barbecue!!! Thank you for everything.

Wonderful Stay

We had a terrific stay at Ken and Shona's rental. The house was full of character, very comfortable with a fully equipped kitchen in a quiet and scenic neighbourhood. As cyclists, it was a great spot to launch a bike ride from with countless quiet backroads that were picturesque beyond belief. The house was close to all amenities and it was easy to busier roads/highways to travel to other towns and cities such as Pau, Bayonne etc. The pet donkeys were a special treat and we looked forward to seeing them in the mornings while drinking our coffee in the backyard. Shona and Ken were incredibly helpful and responsive to any questions we had. We would highly recommend this house!

Fantastic cottage in the heart of French countryside!

Beautifully updated and lovingly maintained cottage for a perfect experience of rural France. Very close to two major towns (Pau and Bayonne) as well as multiple charming villages, it makes for an ideal location for exploring the foothills of Pyrénées. The owners, Shona and Ken, are very friendly and accommodating people, truly interested in the comfort of their guests. We strongly recommend the gîte, and hope to return there again soon.

Delightful stay

My husband and I spent a delightful week in Shona and Ken's lovely gite near Navarrenx. It's been beautifully restored and is full of character but with enough space and amenities for a large family. The garden is south facing and completely private with a remarkable BBQ that sadly we didn't get to use. The owners are next door and ready to help with anything at any time, and the location suited us perfectly, as we were able to go for hikes and cycle rides around the area and enjoy the local countryside. Navarrenx is within walking distance, making shopping and eating out very easy, and we also found several good restaurants within a few minutes drive. Definitely recommend it.

A perfect spot to explore SW France

My husband and I just spent two great weeks at Shona and Ken’s gîte. The location was perfect for exploring the whole region, from the Pyrénées to the coast. They were wonderful hosts, very friendly, there to greet us and farewell us and several times in between to chat, but never intruding. On a fine day, when we asked about hanging out washing Ken installed a new clothes line, and when we asked about movies Shona brought us a giant bag of DVDs. (The television is only French) The house is very well-equipped, the heating is very efficient, both electrical and wood-fired and the internet fast. While the house worked very well for the two of us, being an ancient restored farmhouse, it is charmingly wonky and creaky and could be noisy with a large group. We had some cold, wet weather so a dryer would have helped, but we were able to hang clothes on racks inside. While there are no shops in the village, there is a good supermarket on the main road almost at the end of the street within walking distance. We followed our hosts’ recommendations and had some wonderful meals out, both nearby and on the coast. It’s a great place to stay for anyone who wants to spend time in this beautiful part of France.

Una casa preciosa en un pueblo tranquilo

Fuimos dos familias a pasar la Semana Santa y estuvimos muy a gusto. La casa es antigua (suelos y escaleras de madera, los dos baños en una misma planta) pero está reformada con encanto.Disfrutamos del jardín en los momentos de sol y de la chimenea por la noche.
