About this property
With Stunning Views, A Great Location For Mountain Activities And Relaxing
Situated in the quiet hamlet of Gripp with stunning mountain views Gibson Grange gite is part of a small 18th century converted farm at 1000m altitude set within a secure garden. It is an ideal location for couples or small families to have a relaxing holiday. The gite has one first floor bedroom, a lounge (with double sofa bed), kitchen, separate toilet and shower room on the ground floor. There is a sun terrace with BBQ and plenty of outdoor space. The gite also has off road parking.
There is a double bed (140 x 190cm) with a chest of draws and hanging space in the first floor bedroom. If you require a cot please let us know in advance. The booking price includes linen for the double bed only. If you require additional bedding this can be requested prior to arrival costing 10€/bed.
The toilet is separate to the main shower room. Both are located on the ground floor.
With the mountains on your doorstep there are numerous outdoor activities to enjoy. There are endless kilometres of paths in and around the Campan valley which you can explore on foot. For the more energetic guests; situated on the Route du Tourmalet we have great access for road cyclists wishing to attempt some cols made famous by the Tour de France which comes past the property most summers. There is also a lot of mountain biking trails through the surrounding woods and a down hill course with lift access open during the summer months in Bareges (30 mins away). La Mongie Ski resort is just 15 minutes drive from Gibson Grange and is ideal for first time skiers or families, with over 100km of pistes to explore. Why not come for a weekend skiing with flights available from Stansted Airport to Lourdes (50 minutes from Gibson Grange)
You could visit the local town of Bagneres de Bigorre and relax in the Spa pool Aquensis or make a pilgrimage to the historic town of Lourdes.
Spain is only an hours drive and is great for a day out at the beautiful blue canyons.
The owners live next door and share the large fenced garden along with their 2 children and young lively female border collie dog.

Welcoming and knowledgeable hosts. Great location for cycling and walking as long as you like hills. We enjoyed exploring the Pyrennes and the Tourmolet.
pleasant stay during the heat wave, mild night temperatures were welcome, rather quiet place, amazing landscape, near a lot of hiking trails and the "tourmalet "pass.owners very kind and discreet.
We came to see mountain peaks and more than achieved it. Gibson Grange is in an ideal location with the prospects of many activities both winter and summer. The gite was clean and well equipped and Juliet and Andrew on hand for any questions or advice. Would highlight recommend.
Nous avons été chaleureusement accueillis par Juliett et Andrew. Le gîte est cosy et très fonctionnel. Nous recommandons ces hôtes ! Il est très facile de rayonner autour en randonnée ou en vélo.
Magnifique logis, chez l'habitant, situé dans les Hautes-Pyrénées près du col d'Aspin et du col de Tourmalet. La vue est paradisiaque et le coin jardin ajoute au bien être des lieux. Les propriétaires sont conviviales, chaleureux et respectueux de l'intimité de leurs hôtes. Pour résumer, un séjour inoubliable.
Tanto la estancia como los alrededores son estupendos. La calidez de la cabaña es indudable, totalmente acomodada para pasar unos días de tranquilidad. Tuvimos la suerte de ver nevar y apreciar el paisaje en todas sus formas. Los dueños son encantadores y sus hijos también.
Die beiden Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Wir fühlten uns dort sehr wohl und zuhause. Wir kämen jederzeit gerne wieder, wenn es von Deutschland aus nicht so weit wäre. Wir empfehlen die Unterkunft sehr gerne weiter.
Excellent emplacement pour aller au Pic du Midi proche de la nature.
Nous sommes très content de notre week-end, l'objectif était d'être proche de la nature et en période de brame du cerf pouvoir l'entendre, c'était parfait car nous avons une nuit bercée sous le brame du cerf, mais pour ceux qui n'aime pas cela ne dure que 2 semaines mi-septembre à fin septembre.
De plus nous étions à 1/4 d'heure de voiture du pic du midi, génial pour la visite.
Merci au propriétaire voisin du gîte très discret.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans le gite de Juliet et Andrew. Très accueillants, il ont su être très discrets aussi alors que leur maison est mitoyenne du gîte. Il est parfait pour 2 personnes : très bien conçu, très fonctionnel avec tous les ustensiles nécessaires (sauf une chaise longue qui manque quand on veut lire un bon bouquin dehors !).
Le gîte est très bien situé à mi chemin sur la route qui mènent aux cols d'Aspin et du Tourmalet, hauts lieux de randonnées. La contrepartie un peu gênante est que nous avons eu droit à un interminable défilé (du matin au soir) de motos, voitures, camping-cars. Si cela n'etait pas gênant lorsque nous étions dans le gîte, ça l'était davantage lorsque nous mangions dehors.
Je recommande.
Nous avons passé un superbe moment avec notre petite fille. Le gîte est sublime et nos hôtes très charmants. Nous recommandons cette location en tous points. Merci beaucoup pour cet agréable semaine.
Laurence et Jérôme.
Un lieu charmant, hôtes sympathiques, voisins aimables et serviables, gîte petit mais agréable dans une belle vallée. Et pour les cyclistes, on ne peut rêver mieux.
Neat tidy property with a very good outside space in the grounds of the owners property.
The accommodation is as described on the site. The stairs to the bedroom are quite steep, the bedroom itself has ample storage space.
The owners are welcoming and very helpful in suggesting days out in the area.
This is a big skiing and cycling area so for those of us not really interested in either activity this advice proved invaluable.
Most of the highlights of the region did involve crossing one or other of the two Cols to reach other valleys. The first time was quite daunting, but less so on subsequent climbs and descents. The scenery is spectacular as you might expect.
The small kettle BBQ (charcoal) is ideal for two people and there are two outdoor seating options away from the family area.
Not all properties of this size provide a washing machine - this one does and we found that a bonus.
There are supermarkets relatively close by in Bagneres de Bigorre and La Mongie in the other direction.
We had an excellent week here and happily recommend it as a quiet space to relax in and explore part of the Pyrenees.

Beau,acceuillant mais etouffant
Un tres bel endroit,tres fleuri,joliment decore,
Mais maison etouffante,sans ventilation,surtout a l etage,une etuve
Avec trop de mouches a l interieur,
Nous sommes des montagnards conscients des mouches dans les fermes,aucuns problemes mais les proprietaires ont des moustiquaires a toutes les fenetres et a la porte d entree,et etonamment
La proprietaire etait etonnee pour la chaleur et les mouches!!
Juliet et Andrew sont à la fois attentionnés et discrets, très disponibles si on les sollicitent.
Les alentours sont riches en chemins de randonnées. La maison est très bien conçue et tous les équipements nécessaires sont à disposition.
Bref, nous recommandons pour tous tous les amateurs de nature.
Gibson Grange was absolutely perfect for our impromptu weekend snow trip. Only 10 min drive to La Mongie, Fireplace was beautiful, ample bedding, super responsive and friendly owners, well equipped kitchen.
Would highly recommend this accommodation!
