Soaring timber rafters, mountain views from the top floor, and a wood burner to come home to – this house in the quiet Pyrenean village of Gessa is a compelling base for the slopes. Ski storage and a seasonal locker at Val de Ruda put Baqueira Beret within easy reach, while the front patio opens onto the unhurried rhythm of Aran Valley village life. Back inside, the top-floor suite feels like a world apart – all exposed beams and snow-dusted peaks framed through the balcony door.

Home truths
The home is spread across three floors, so you'll be using the stairs regularly. Worth bearing in mind if anyone in your group has mobility considerations.
Gessa is a small, tranquil village and you'll need a car to reach the ski slopes at Baqueira Beret or pick up supplies. We recommend hiring one if you're not driving from home.
Though there's free parking here, it's only suitable for compact vehicles.
