The Experience
Drive 20-minutes south of Pau, the last, narrow 10k winds up, down and finally up, past old and newer homes (watch out for wild boar) to this friendly retreat with rustic stylish rooms and serene views. You don’t have to be sporty to stay here but you’ve expert advice on hand if you are: Tobias knows every trail and piste and wants guests to have the best, adventurous fun.
He and Zayne gladly give a steer on restaurants and wine tastings too, this is Jurancon country, and as well as chats over breakfast – indoors or out, continental style with cereals, fruit (their figs and sometimes peaches), great coffee, bread and yogurt, home-made muffins and cakes- there are evening drinks and canapés most Fridays.
Walk 25 minutes into the village for a good meal, explore endless trails and set off on great adventures with suggestions from Tobias.

Located in the foothills of the Pyrenees, this is a really beautiful place to stay. Tobias and Zayne were exceptionally helpful and made us very welcome for our 5 night stay. We made good use of the picnic facilities and the garden and pool are a magnificent place to spend time with lovely views over the valley. We particularly enjoyed the excellent breakfasts which always included a variety of freshly cut fruit and delicious homemade yoghurt, usually served outside on a shaded terrace.

We spent 3 nights here and would thoroughly recommend it. Tobias, Zayne and Tobias’ mum were all welcoming, friendly and very helpful. We had a picnic during the evening a couple of times-they provide plates, cutlery and glasses, but we were not allowed to wash up! The setting is gloriously peaceful, the pool is fabulous, and the local area is stunning-great for walking and exploring the local vineyards. A really lovely stay.

We spent four nights at The Secret Pyrenees in June. Everything was perfect - the surroundings and gardens were beautiful with a view of the Pyrenees in the distance. We enjoyed our walk down to the river after our long drive. The room was tastefully decorated and furnished. Breakfast on the terrace was excellent. Zayne and Tobias were very welcoming and most helpful in recommending places to visit and local restaurants. We hope to return.

Location
The neighbourhood
The grounds and mature garden here are vast and lovely, with south westerly views of the Ossau valley; owls, bats, deer and red kites live here; a tunnel of roses leads to the swimming pool. And Jurancon vineyards are all around; walk to Domaine Tinou for a tasting. It’s a five-minute drive or 25-minute walk to Lasseube for provisions or an auberge meal (closed Mondays). As for activities: trail-run, ski and cycle the cols - kayak the Gave d’Ossau…
Local points of interest from Tobias & Zayne Mews
- We're situated in the heart of the wine growing region of the Jurancon - a delicious sweet wine, traditionally used to anoint the kings of France.
- For cycling fanatics, the Bearn Pyrenees is paradise. The Tour de France passes through the region every year and Pau (20 mins away) has hosted the Tour over 70 times. The infamous Col d'Aubisque is 40 kms away.
- If you like cheese - you've come to the right place. The Bearn Pyrenees is home to the delicious Ossau-Iraty. You can go cheese tasting in many of the farms, or follow the Route de Fromage across the Pyrenees.
- We are situated at the head of three valleys - the Ossau, Aspe and Baretous. Each of these valleys harbours hundreds of kilometres of epic hiking paths to walk or trail run along.
- Nearby Pau (20 mins) is a bastion of Englishness. It's home to the first golf club to be created outside of Great Britain, a real tennis-court, a first class hippodrome, a Philomonic Orchestra, a beautiful Chateau and panoramic views of the Pyrenees.
- The Bearn is neatly sandwiched between the Haut Pyrenees and the Pays Basque - offering the ability to go to the beach one day and the next head up into the mountains. Or you can pop over the border to nearby Spain (1h10mins) where another world awaits.

Introducing
Tobias & Zayne Mews
Vivacious and engaging Tobias is British and Zayne is South African; they speak French and Spanish fluently and have forged strong links with the local Béarn community. Welcoming guests here allows them to pursue the sports they love, to use their languages and inspire others to enjoy the Pyrenees whether in a sporting, leisure or cultural way. Tobias is an adventure sports expert and knows the area back to front. His mum has a house here too.
We had a really relaxing stay of 3 nights. A wonderful breakfast, lots of help from Tobias and Zayne about what to do and see locally. Lovely evenings by the pool. What more could you want!
