Property Overview

FCH1114

For Sale

This watermill, with its ancillary buildings, was an abandoned ruin until it was rescued and comprehensively renovated in 2000 by its former owners.  It now offers five separate dwellings : the original stone farmhouse with its attractive Béarnaise balcony overhanging the courtyard, three independant two bedroom gîtes with private outdoor space and a guardian's studio.  The ensemble sits in beautiful mature grounds bordered by its river.  Its millstream meanders through the grounds and flows under the former watermill which is now the second gîte.

The ensemble is situated just 10 minutes from the attractive riverside town of Oloron Sainte Marie, the capital of the Haut Béarn.  Oloron offers all necessary amentities such as supermarkets, medical facilities, cinemas and restaurants.  The local area is ideal for outdoor pursuits such as skiing, fishing, hikng, kayaking and cycling and offers some of the most spectacular local scenery! The Spanish border can be reached in just 30 minutes and the Atlantic Ocean in 90 minutes. The property lies just below the famous walk of the  Chemin de St Jacques de Compostelle and can offer short stay accomodation.

Oloron Sainte Marie has railway access to Pau connecting to mainline services throughout France and down the Aspe Valley towards Spain. This lively market town has a renowned Jazz festival and attracts many of the performers prior to the Marciac Jazz festival.

The airports of Pau, Lourdes/Tarbes and Biarritz are all within 1hr30 of the property.
