What a find!!!!
If you want peace and tranquillity this is for you! The wildlife was just fantastic, watching the swifts give such a display by the pool, and a very close display of kites and buzzards as the farmer was cutting the grass - just incredible. Most mornings we saw the dear/s in the lower fields. And of course the little bat that decided he would sleep under the wooden terrace during the day. The farmhouse is set in a lovely rural location with spectacular 180 ° views, so wonderful we shared our early morning coffee with them. I am going to miss that first hour so much. The farmhouse is rustic with typical Bearnaise features. Pre supper drinks outside were the order of the day, even when watching the 360° storms. Phillip and his daughter were so helpful, although they live in the adjoining house were not intrusive. They were on hand at all times, should we have needed anything. They really were great hosts, and very respectful of our privacy. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Georgina was brilliant, and came to the rescue when I was picking roses and the wasps decided to sting me. We were invited to partake of the fruits growing in the garden and the herbs on the terrace. This was wonderful for me as I like to cook & bake. I picked the ‘small wild yellow plums’ to bring home for jam making 😊. I will bring a pot back for you next year. Thank you all for making our stay comfortable, easy and so very very relaxing.

Full of Rustic Charm - beautiful part of France
We had an extremely relaxing two weeks at this farm house. The bedding was clean and fresh and there was plenty of space for our family of five. The pool was fabulous and our 6 year old son particularly loved it - the pool is deep but once he got his confidence, he was trying to dive in the deep end! The walks locally were fab but you have to be a fan of steep hills! We also enjoyed the use of the pool table. The farmhouse is rustic with typically Bearnaise features. The outdoor areas were great for relaxing with a glass of wine... or two of an evening. Our son made friends with Mittens (later known as ChitChat) the cat who liked to come and say hello... especially at meal times!! The wildlife - deer and a range of birds, in particular birds of prey, were in abundance. The views of the Pyranees are quite something. The farmhouse is away from it all but it is worth trying the local auberges. Excellent food at great prices. We also visited Chateau de Morlanne, Arthez, Orthez and Pau which were very nice. The hosts were great, nothing was too much trouble - Phil had a bit of an accident and the rest of the family came together to make sure we were ok in his absence! We hope you have a speedy recovery. Thank you for making our stay comfortable and easy.

Superb house for a away from it all vacation with plenty of space for 2 families
The old farmhouse with pool and covered terraces gave our 2 families the base for a sunny and peaceful vacation. Although far from a town there is a smaller store only 15 minutes drive away. We took a day trip to Bilbao about 2,5 hours drive away. We can recommend this house to all that likes the peace and quite combined with a 180 degree view of the surrounding hills and farm fields.

Could be 5 stars, if it was given a thorough cleaning.
This house has fantastic potential. Set in a lovely rural location, there are gorgeous views from the front and side of the property. However, St. Medard is really only a hamlet, and the nearest village is 20 mins drive but if you're looking for peace and tranquillity, you will not be disappointed. The house itself is large and very well-equipped. We had ample room for our large family (2 adults, 5 teenagers and 2 children), with 4 good sized bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, as well as a toilet. One small point worth mentioning though is that the mezzanine area above one of the bedrooms is not available, as the ladders had been removed, which the owners stated was due to safety concerns. This was not a problem though as we still had plenty of space and Kirsty offered us additional bedding if necessary. All bed linen was clean and fresh and there were plenty of towels for showering as well as use by the pool. There is a large pool outside which we had for our private use. The pool was clean and well-maintained and when there was a problem with the pool, Philip fixed it immediately. The one negative comment is that when we arrived the house was filthy. Although Kirsty claimed that people had stayed there recently, the house was really musty, with cobwebs and dust everywhere. There were small brown pellets under the sofas and in the bathrooms, which Kirsty claimed were wood lice, but were in fact some kind of animal droppings. When we arrived, the dishwasher was full of mouldy dishes and we had to clean all the dishes we were intending to use beforehand. We spent the first day buying cleaning products, air freshness and making the house habitable. All of that said, Kirsty and Philip are a lovely couple and although they live in the adjoining house, they respected our privacy and were not at all intrusive. Kirsty was very helpful, with directions to the nearest shops and suggestions for various activities. My best advice to Philip and Kirsty is to get professional cleaners in to thoroughly clean the property and this could be an absolute goldmine. If the issue of cleanliness was sorted, I would happily give this property 5 stars.

Family (all adults) holiday
This was the first holiday we've been able to have together for 3 years (mostly due to Covid). It was perfect as each couple (x3) had a separate bedroom/bathroom area for privacy. Plenty of sitting areas and dining inside as well – though in good weather not needed. Good internet provision. Peaceful area. We enjoyed star gazing at night. Also watching the swifts (?) lining up on the wires twice a day and swooping down to the pool for insects and a drink maybe. And the huge birds of prey and deer in the distance. One day it was particularly clear, and we got a good view of the Pyrenees from along the road. Outside area great for covered eating when the sun was shining or if the weather turns bad. Great outdoor cooking facilities – plancha, BBQ and especially the loan of the paella equipment! Pool lovely - large and clean - the robot was put in each morning before we were awake. Plenty of sun loungers and shaded or sunny places to sit all day. The younger adults enjoyed table tennis, darts and pool. Too chilled to use the gym equipment! Some nice bike rides were had, but not for the novice as very hilly. Liza and Phillip were great hosts – always willing to help and offer advice, yet discreet. If you want peace and quiet this is for you!

Superbe séjour en famille
Nous avons eu un très bon accueil de la part de Phillip et de Liza. Ils ont su être très discrets tout au long de notre séjour dans cet endroit très calme dans un cadre magnifique. L'intérieur de la maison est spacieux et la piscine est très appréciable avec un magnifique décor. L'ensemble est relativement bien adapté aux enfants notamment la piscine sécurisée. L'intérieur de la maison est un peu rustique, il y a beaucoup de tapis au sol ce qui nous semblent ne pas être adapté pour de la location.

Les équipements sont au top : billard, fléchette, piscine immense, badminton, croquet, jeu gonflable pour la piscine, nos enfant étaient aux anges. Nous avons fait le séjour avec 2 personnes de plus de 80 ans et ça c’est très bien passé. Vraiment je recommande!

Prachtige locatie in het groen!
Prachtige locatie, heel rustig. Dus hou hier rekening mee als je iets wil zien moet je al snel een uurtje met de auto rijden. De verhuurders waren super vriendelijk, deden alles wat ze konden om ons een goed verblijf te geven. Echt een heel warme familie. Het zwembad in dit verblijf is echt super, heel groot en dit werd iedere dag gereinigd, dus hierop totaal geen opmerkingen. De woning zelf kon wel een goede poetsbeurt krijgen volgens ons, maar de bedden waren proper, wij waren er 14 dagen en na de eerste week hebben de eigenaars onze bedden komen verversen, dus weer een plus voor de eigenaars die hun gasten wel willen bekoren. Ook is er voldoende ruimte zowel binnen als buiten de woning. Wij hebben een leuke vakantie gehad en raden deze woning aan aan iedereen die echt wil genieten van de rust. Iemand die graag actie rond zich heeft raden we aan om toch naar een andere locatie te kijken. Wij willen ook de eigenaars nogmaals bedanken voor de goede zorgen.

Pour ceux qui apprécient le calme , l'endroit est idéal : beau jardin, superbe piscine bien entretenue, plusieurs tables extérieures ..

We had a great time, the pool and the the house are huge. The hosts were really discreet but also always available for us. Located in the middle of the country side, it has the advantage of being extremly calm but in just 1h by car you can get to Bayonne, Mont-de-marsan or the pyrenees. Thank you very much for everything Liza and Phillip! :)

Cadre magnifique et reposant
Nous avons loué la ferme de Monsieur Deighton pour 4 nuits. Nous étions 8 adultes et un petit enfant. L’accueil du propriétaire a été chaleureux. Nous venions de loin, avions roulé toute la journée et nous avons trouvé du pain sur la table et dans le frigidaire, du fromage, de la charcuterie et de la confiture. Nous avons eu la chance d’avoir une météo exceptionnelle et nous avons profité de toutes les installations. Notamment de la piscine qui est magnifique, propre et bien protégée pour empêcher tout souci de surveillance (grillage tout autour et deux portillons d'accès pouvant se verrouiller). On y trouve tous les jouets d’eau permettant à un enfant de s’amuser. Les extérieurs sont spacieux et la vue aux alentours est magnifique. Le coucher de soleil éclairant les Pyrénées est magique. Le lieu est certes un peu loin de tout mais idéal pour se reposer et profiter du calme et des bruits de la nature. La maison est très grande et comporte 3 coins nuit bien distincts avec salles de bain attenantes permettant à chacun d’avoir son indépendance, ce qui est très appréciable lorsque nous sommes nombreux. Le décor est rustique mais s’intègre bien dans le cadre. La literie fournie est propre et confortable et les chambres sont spacieuses. Les salles de bains sont pratiques. Un seul petit point négatif : le ménage des sols n’était pas parfait ; ce qui est certainement dû à la présence dans toutes les pièces d’immenses tapis peu appropriés à une location. Ce point ne nous a pas empêché de passer de très bons moments en famille dans cette belle maison. Si vous recherchez une demeure avec du cachet et de la personnalité (et au calme), avec une piscine de rêve rien que pour vous et à un tarif raisonnable, vous trouverez tout cela dans la propriété de Monsieur Deighton.
