Disconnect with nature, because it's everywhere you turn in this idyllic mountain home. The lack of Wifi may seem impossible to comprehend to some, but to us, it sounds magical. This is a place to truly switch off, relax, and surround yourself with the beauty of nature.
 
Step into the living area and you’re immediately struck by its captivating panoramic fireplace at its very heart. Imagine an evening spent here, the fire glowing and warming you after a day on the slopes. Put your large glass of red down on your tree stump coffee table, whilst the smell of dinner fills the open space. With views over the Posets-Maladeta natural park, it's quite a conversation starter as you settle down for a meal with loved ones.
 
His and her sinks are one of the many delights this captivating casa has to offer. Its extensive renovation to a modern yet chic mountain house is perfect. Neutral tones and natural materials throughout reflect the postcard-ready surroundings you’re sure to enjoy during your stay. 
 
In the winter, skiing takes centre stage but this ideally located home is within minutes of many local delights. So whether you’re eating in or eating out, it’s nothing short of a winter wonderland. With pistes for every type of explorer, everyone can embrace the outdoors.


Call of the Mountains

Made almost entirely of stone and wood, this natural cabin is tucked away in Arties, only a short drive from three different ski lifts. It's homely and cosy, especially with the working fireplace, but the living space might feel a little cramped at capacity. Luckily, a peaceful walk leads right into town, where you can stretch your legs. The twin rooms are ideal for kids who can more easily manoeuvre around the sloped ceilings, and there is a ski locker available for storing your gear after a day on the snow. 

A Stone's Whisper

With its awe-inspiring mountain peaks, lush forests and serene lakes, the Spanish Pyrenees makes the perfect setting for an adventurous retreat. And nestled at the feet of the Baqueira-Beret ski resort, this charming apartment invites you to experience it all in style. 

Located in the Val de Ruda complex and just a short walk from the ski lifts, there’s everything you could need to connect with the natural beauty of this setting. And once inside, you’ll find the open-plan living room sets the tone for a truly relaxing stay. From the rustic simplicity of the decor to the cosy charm of the bedrooms, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of warmth and comfort – making it the ideal place for a rejuvenating reset. You’ll love spending cosy evenings by the fire and then retreating to the tranquil bedrooms. 

Days can be spent trekking through the valley, enjoying the world-class skiing and simply savouring the majestic mountain views from a local restaurant or bar. 

The Minimalist 

Get away from the everyday with a breathtaking getaway to this stunning villa. Based in the South of France, just a short drive from the picturesque city of Toulouse, this recently renovated gîte was originally built back in 1880, and so has a beautiful blend of the old and new. Exposed beams and cobblestone walls are paired with modern Scandi-style furniture, to create a unique and charming home that you'll want to return to time and time again.

Begin each day with a swing in the hanging egg chairs while you sip on a cappucino. Then, as the sun gets higher and the temperature rises, cool off in your stunning outdoor pool, or enjoy a spot of sunbathing on one of the poolside loungers. Grill up some French meats on your barbecue and tuck in at your shaded outdoor dining set. In the evenings, sit out on your outdoor lounge area with a sundowner, or cosy up with the TV and a movie.

Being located in the French countryside, you'll have many country rambles right on your doorstep, or venture further out with a drive to nearby Toulouse to explore museums, shops and restaurants.

A Modern Classic

Yes, this home in the middle of the Tarn countryside dates back to the 19th century and is surrounded by 32 hectares of idyllic meadows, but this isn't the rustic getaway you might assume from first impression. How could it be so when the list of amenities at guests' disposal is so impressive?

Given the rather enviable climate that this corner of South France enjoys, you probably won't be surprised to learn that many of these lie outside. The first one that's likely to grab your attention is the swimming pool, but wander around a bit more and you'll discover everything from a sauna and six-person Jacuzzi to a tennis court and bar in the poolhouse for afterwards.

The home itself still retains an air of grandeur – all high ceilings, parquet floors and chandeliers. There are plenty of large communal spaces in which to gather together, but a fair few more private spots to escape the group for a peaceful moment. Chief among them is the rather elegant freestanding tub in the master bathroom.

One thing you'll quickly appreciate here is just how tranquil the locale is, with even the nearest village sitting 6km away. The surrounding area is peppered with charming towns and scenic hillside walking routes, while Toulouse is only 55km away, too.



Monsieur of the Manor

This lovely apartment is an excellent base for skiers and hikers looking for a real home from home. It can be found at the foot of the slopes of the Baqueira-Beret ski resort, in an excellent area for outdoor activities. 

The apartment is cosy and comfortable, with everything you’ll need for a break. After a day spent on the slopes, it’s wonderful to return to a home as welcoming as this. Curl up around the fireplace with a mug of cocoa, or sip a glass of red wine on the balcony while enjoying the mountain views. In the evening, whip up a comforting dish to tuck into at the dining table, and revel in the warmth of this utterly delightful home. 

The cable car is within easy reach, so it’s easy as can be to breathe in the mountain air. The skiing is fantastic but in summer there’s still plenty to keep you entertained. Lace up your hiking boots and explore the trails of the Arán Valley – this is such a beautiful part of the world.  


Mountain Snow

You couldn't be better placed to enjoy the magical slopes of Baqueira Beret. Your tranquil abode rests just a few metres from the cable car, providing easy access to the array of beautiful slopes that shape the resort.

Whether you're an expert skier or someone who's not quite mastered the art, there's slopes for every level. Whatever type of ski run you embark on, you can meet your friends or family at the top of the mountain for a hearty lunch and fresh drink. 

The resort is designed for skiers, but it caters to visitors all throughout the year. There are many walking trails to traverse come the spring and summer months, affording breathtaking views of the encompassing mountainside. 

Whatever time of year you visit, the apartment is a tranquil hub of relaxation. Snuggle up on the sofa with a cup of hot chocolate in the colder months – put a film on the TV for the whole group or just curl up with a book. Next to the sofas, you'll find a wooden dining table, made for sharing healthy food to prepare you for the day ahead.



Tip the White Beret

Surrounded by trees with inspiring views across the Val d'Aran, this is the kind of home that immerses you in the majestic beauty of the Pyrenees. 

Located in the charming village of Betren with easy access to the hiking trails and ski runs across the Baqueira-Beret resort, this is a wonderful place to experience the refreshing simplicity of mountain living. And with four floors dedicated to bringing luxurious ease and comfort to your stay, you’ll find everything you could need to relax in style. 

From the rustic tones and textures to the casual styling, there’s an abundance of charm and character here – it’s the ideal setting for intimate gatherings, cosy evenings around the fire and warm cups of cocoa whilst gazing at the views. Upstairs, you’ll find the top-floor living area provides the perfect nook to savour the unique magic of this home – whilst also being a great spot for a movie night. 

Stepping outside, you’re in a great position to embrace the adventurous spirit of this region. From world-class skiing during the winter season (the Baqueira-Beret ski lifts are just a short drive away) to hiking and sightseeing, there are infinite ways to enjoy this special location all year round. 

The Pine View

Stunning mountain views and skiing fit for royalty are what's on offer with this incredible home which boasts a great location and private balcony. Whether your morning breakfast is accompanied by an espresso for a shot of energy or a fresh juice made in the kitchen’s juicer, the balcony of this home is a great place to enjoy it as you start your days taking in the vistas of the beautiful Aran Valley.

Grab your ski equipment from your storage locker and hit the slopes each day in no time, with a ski lift available within just a few metres of your door. After a busy day on the snow, catch up on any important emails or work at the dedicated desk space. Then, treat yourself to a much-deserved glass of wine to enjoy on the balcony, or even dine alfresco if you’re staying during the summer months. 

Silhouetted Pines

Nestled in Spain's Naut Aran mountains, this bucolic abode is the perfect pad for keen hikers and those seeking stolen moments in the countryside. Expect miles of rich landscape in every direction and a quaint village on your doorstep. Inside the apartment, exposed stone walls and raw-edged wooden furniture create a suitably rustic feel. Seeking a down-to-earth getaway? Your search is over.

In between walks and trips to the local taberna, recline on the L-shaped sofa and admire your homely surroundings. Original details juxtapose with modern decor – we particularly love the statement light fixtures. With plush seating and soft furnishings aplenty, this place is the epitome of cosy. It'll be worth your while to hire a car so you can explore the surrounding area. In just half an hour, you'll reach the French border. Perhaps a day trip to Toulouse is on the cards?

Salardú Solace

There's something truly magical about this home's location in the listed Occitane village of Laurac. As well as being so isolated as to bring a pleasing sense of tranquillity, the hilltop position means that there are lovely views of verdant countryside from the terraces.

Speaking of which, the address benefits from two such standout outdoor spaces. On the second floor, glass doors open out to an alfresco dining area complete with a barbecue and a glorious panorama, while back down at the ground and thirty metres' walk from the home, there's a secret garden with a swimming pool surrounded by vegetation.

It's plain to see that a big chunk of your time here is going to be spent out in the open air, but you'll also be happy to hear that the interior doesn't disappoint when you finally retreat indoors. There's a rustic feel to the design, with large ceiling beams sitting above a traditional fireplace and smart wooden floors. That being said, it doesn't feel dated in the slightest – the kitchen is a modern update on the country-style quarters found in many of the region's properties.

When it comes to filling up an itinerary, the rural surroundings and wealth of routes can be explored on foot or horseback, or by bike or kayak. The medieval architecture in the town of Carcassonne only takes thirty-five minutes to reach in the car, too.
