Tucked away in the heart of the Aran Valley, this newly-built home is surrounded by timeless terrain. Thoughtfully designed with natural wood beams and rustic interior features, this charming place provides a perfect shelter in the Pyrenees. Here, you will have the pleasure of waking up in a serene bedroom and starting your day beneath a rain shower. Through the skylight windows, you can see over the rooftops of Gessa – a little hamlet where everything feels like a fairy tale. While the local St. Pèir de Gessa church offers peace, don't forget that there are action-packed skiing resorts in the area too. Why not take advantage of the extra services available and order fridge fills for your kitchen? That way, you can focus on hiking with your family. After a chilly day on the hillside, come home and light the fire in the snug living area. What's great about holidaying in Gessa is that making memories can be as dreamy or as daring as you like.
