La Branaa

The house itself is on the edge of Lasseube which has in its centre (2km away) a boulangerie, a restaurant and some shops; Oloron (12km) has a good selection of cafes, shops and restaurants.
The valleys of Barétous, Aspe and Ossau, as well as the towns of Pau (town of Henri IV), Lourdes and Spain are all within 1 hour`s drive. The area has fabulous landscape and atmosphere; floating across the valleys is the sound of gushing mountain rivers as they speed recklessly down their spectacular courses between picturesque villages. 
Oloron, 12km from the house, organises many festivals and fêtes during the summer: do not miss the jazz festival with its street shows, impromptu bars, afternoon and late night concerts; the local fêtes in July; or the Pelote Basque week in August. You can choose to visit one of the local châteaux, Lindt chocolate factory, beaches along the river, local craft industry, sculpture, or Jurançon vineyards in the nearby villages.
