Lovely family ski chalet located in the historic centre of Arties just opposite the renowned Tauerna Urtau. The Chalet which dates from 1815 has been recently renovated but retained its rustic charm and now provides 7 bedrooms with 5 bathrooms configured as follows: 3 double beds with ensuite bathrooms, 1 larger family room with en-suite bathroom with a Double bed and 2 sofa beds sleeping 4 in total and 3 double bunk bed rooms sleeping 6 who share a family bathroom. In addition there is a large Kitchen / Breakfast / Sitting room with electric fireplace on the ground floor seating 14 for dinner, a ground floor Utility room with WC and Washer / Dryer, a large upstairs Drawing Room with wonderful views over the Placa Ortau and Montarto and TV area equipped with a Bar and Fridge.

The Chalet is ideal for Winter skiing holidays and Summer walking holidays in the beautiful Pyrenees mountains. Baqueira Beret, Spain's leading Ski Resort is 7 minutes drive up the valley with skiing available from November to mid April. With 165 kms or groomed pistes catering for all levels form Beginner to Advanced Skiers and 36 Lifts covering a huge skiable domaine this is the biggest and the best skiing in Spain. Nestled in an Atlantic facing valley the Val D'Aran is one of the most snow sure locations in Europe.

In Summer the Valley turns into a paradise for walkers and cyclists. There are numerous marked trails including the famous GR11 which crosses from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. This Summer we completed the famous Escape route taken during the war from France - the "Chemin de La Liberte"- an arduous four day hike with overnights in mountain refuges which runs from Saint Girons and finishes up in Arties just opposite the Chalet in the Taverna Urtau !! We highly recommend it. Ask about our guided walking tours if this is something you are interested in.
