Just IMMEDIATELY after this hotel is a small road called Chemin d'Escarret; you will see our white sign for "Les Granges des Hautes-Pyrénées"at this intersection.
Turn onto this road and follow it for about 100m, whereit rises slowly and turns to the left. Be aware that it is a bit narrow in places. After a total distance of approximately 300m, you willsee another white sign for "Les Granges des Hautes-Pyrénées" and a long driveway that crosses a field. Follow this.

Natasha and Kev warmly welcome you to their cottages.
Having lived worldwide, they moved from the city to the mountains, starting in Chamonix, the French Alps.
Then after having visited the Pyrénées, they fell in love with this area - its remoteness and endless possibilities for adventure!
They now enjoy hosting guests in their cottages and running guided day trips and multi-day adventure trips with their partner company, Shed to Summit.
