Surrounding Area: The Midi-Pyrenees is abundant with things to see and do. The house is situated amongst the vineyards of St. Mont so obviously tasting the local produce is a must. Armagnac a brandy type drink is also produced in the area, as is Fois Gras. The musketeer D'Artagnan was said to live in the area and there is a museum to celebrate the fact in Lupiac. The close proximity to Spain brings us bull rings in almost every town, with fetes to go with them. There are numerous opportunities for fishing and permits can be bought locally. There are 2 golf courses, one at Eauze and one at Pallane, having putting greens, practice drives, pools and restaurants. A great day out for the kids is Parc Walibi. The mountains offer rambling, climbing caving, canoeing and of course skiing in the winter. Lourdes is definitely worth a visit. The Atlantic coast is only an hour away and is great for surfing. In the surrounding villages it is possible to canoe, ride, carte, cycle, swim and many more things. There are regular local markets, supermarkets and wine tasting. Bars and restaurants are many as are the lakes with sandy beaches with swimming facilities. There are numerous festivals including Jazz at Marciac and latino at Vic Fezenzac.
