Cherry cottage, Pech in the Pyrenees, South France  
Cherry cottage is a 2 bedroomed self catering holiday home, with one double room (1  double bed) and one triple room (1 double bed and 1 single bed).  We feel that it is ideally sized for 4 people, but we have also provided a sofa bed in the living room should a further 2 people be visiting.

It is situated in a quiet Pyrenean hamlet in the Ariege, at a level of 530m.  It enjoys stunning views all around and is beautifully peaceful.

The cottage has a small garden across the way, with mountain views, a table and chairs and a barbeque for your use. There is easy parking oppposite the cottage.

The local area is ideal for a host of outdoor activities, be it summer or winter, and it is perfect for couples, friends or a family.  There are 2 local open air swimming pools in the nearby villages of Aston and Les Cabannes, that are open during July and August.  The Aston swimming pool has a shady area for 'spectators' plus a curly slide into the pool, and a toddlers pool too.
