One house, four ways to live in it
Laborde is let whole, never shared. What you make of it depends on who you are: a tribe on holiday, two families getting to know each other, a team that needs to breathe.

Organise a retreatThe house
Blonde stone, brick and oak, just as we found them
Laborde is an old Gascon barn surrounded by meadows, in Monpardiac, the smallest village in the Gers. We restored it keeping what gave it its strength: the stone walls, the brick arches, the original timber roof frame that runs through the main living room over two levels.
The comfort is today's: new bedding, a kitchen equipped for fourteen, air conditioning upstairs, fibre broadband, an accessible bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. And outside, the pool, the préau and the view over the hills to the Pyrenees on clear days.
Manestin farm, in the village
Pyrenean goats and cheese
The gîte belongs to a working farm whose buildings are in the village, a few hundred metres away: at the gîte, nothing stirs. On the farm we raise the Pyrenean goat, an endangered local breed, grazing the hillsides. Depending on the season, we take you to see the herd, and the cheese ends up on your table.
That is what makes a wedding brunch or a coffee break at a retreat different here: the produce comes from the farm, a few hundred metres away.
Around Laborde
The Gers of Marciac, Madiran and the bastides
Far enough away to be quiet, close enough to do everything. Distances are by car from the gîte.

Caterer, activities, butcher's basket: the options around the gîte
We let the house. For everything else, we work with local partners we know well and put you in touch. Each one invoices you for their own service; you keep a single venue and a single number to organise it all.
Tick what interests you in your enquiry: we pass on each partner's contact details and prices.
