Highly recommended - yoga sessions at the chateau. I found her a strong but very calming presence, with her expert guidance I felt relaxed but energised at the same time, if only I could practise with her every day!” Vivy, Arlens, October 2007

Walking and Cycling In The Gers

All you need is a good pair of walking shoes and we can help the cyclists with rentals in Plaisance, just 6km away. Routes and Maps provided.

"Walking and bicycling breaks in the Gers are a delight. The terrain caters for all levels, routes are well marked, villages offer glorious lunch breaks and peace, quiet and beauty compete for top billing. And then to return to home-away-from-home Arlens......Bliss!” Anya, September 2007.
