This romantic barn is located on a secluded spot on a mountain in a beautiful part of the Pyrenees. There are no neighbours, you will have the whole place and the surrounding lands to yourself. The ruralhut is extremely suited for people who love hiking as you can hike right up to the Pyreneees mountains from your doorstep. Make a hike to one of the famous peaks, or stay home and enjoy the nature and wildlife around the barn: foxes, deer, wild hogs, bears (not dangerous). There is a river streaming by the barn. The barn is basic but provides the comfort of two single beds (which can be put next to each other if needed), table, chairs and wood burner. There is a small kitchen area with sink and tap with water from the stream, two-ring gas hob, basic cooking equipment and cutlery, and an outside dry toilet. Enjoy being alone in nature with the comfort of basic modern day amenities. Note: there is room for four people but there are only two beds, so in case more than two people want to come they need to bring their own mattresses. Gas for the stove and wood for the burner are included.

Nature and surroundings

To reacht the nature house, you will need to hike for 15 minutes, all the way from the car park where your car is safe. You will be the only people up here, enjoying the forest and its animals and the river streaming by. Explore the beautiful surroundings right from the doorstep and sit by the fire at night. From here you can hike up straight to the mountains. This barn is for the people who like camping, hiking and go back to basic. The reward is immense with a connection with nature in an exceptional environment high in the mountains. Experience complete freedom and disconnection from your everyday live. Breathtaking views of the high mountains, forest and open pastures.

    It was a nice place, but only when you’re a bit adventurous: there was no running water (probably due to frost, nor were there instructions on this), no ready-made / available firewood (although there are basic tools to saw / chop wood yourself) and the place was not very easy to find / access. All in all a nice place, but very basic.

    Beautiful nature, but there were barns right next to the cabin (not visible on the photos).

    Het hutje was zoals verwacht erg basic.
    Helaas was het ook erg vuil. Het huisje heeft volgens ons toch wat extra onderhoudswerken nodig...
    Gezien de droogte was er ook geen water , die moest je van beneden mee dragen. Jammer dat we dat pas twee uur voor aankomst te horen kregen.
    Wel een mooie locatie, uiteraard zeer rustig.
    De omgeving (de ariège) is helemaal de max!

    De Ariège is een geweldig mooie streek in Frankrijk. Er hangt een fijne "babacool" atmosfeer. De mensen zijn vriendelijk en heel erg open.

    Houdt rekening met het feit dat dit een zeer simpele herdershut betreft, zoals de eigenaar overigens ook heeft aangegeven. Ik denk dat goed zou zijn om dit ook op de site nadrukkelijker naar voren te brengen. Er was door droogte zelfs geen stromend water beschikbaar. Om vanaf de parkeerplaats bij de hut te komen was een steile klim vereist over een geiten paadje van ca 30 min. om water te halen moest je naar de parkeerplaats op en neer. Een aantal markeringen van de route ontbreekt op cruciale plekken. Rondom het huisje hebben wij niet direct wandelroutes kunnen vinden, hoewel deze er zeker zullen zijn in de buurt.
    Mede door de extreme hitte in Z Frankrijk vonden wij het huisje, zonder aanwezigheid van water, eigenlijk niet geschikt om aan een brede groep mensen aan te bieden via deze site.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    Het huisje is rustig gelegen in mooie natuur, maar wij hebben vanuit het huisje zelf niet veel wandelroutes ontdekt, hoewel deze in de omgeving van de dorpje vast aanwezig zullen zijn.
