Fantastic Holiday
Fantastic holiday at this property - location is just stunning, M-L and Steph are so welcoming, and always on hand if you need anything - nothing was too much trouble which made it such a great holiday. Views are spectacular, weather was amazing and we were quite happy just being at the gite because it was so nice. Couldn't have asked for better and meant we all had a really wonderful holiday.

The most heavenly holiday home...
It is so hard to know where to start with this magical place, because it is all spectacular! From the wonderful and very kind hosts, Marie-Louise and Steph and their incredibly thoughtful touches providing toys and delicious treats for us all on arrival, to breath taking 360 views of rolling vines and sunflower fields with the violet outline of the Pyrenees on the horizon to the gorgeous interiors! We explored beautiful Gers, but found it hard to tear ourselves away from the amazing dazzling pool, it's view and the many places to sit and relax, but always in style! The house was perfectly cool and we loved cooking with fresh produce on the Plancha enjoying a local wine watching the honey coloured sunsets, with swooping swallows, chirping crickets and sparkling stars appearing. We had such fun at the Lavarden night market but always happy to return to the peace and quiet of this super place and say goodnight to the adorable ponies. I could have stayed forever, I can see why everyone returns it's just so special. Thank you Marie-Louise and Steph for letting us share your piece of heaven, for looking after us and for the fantastic toys! We definitely hope to return.

Amazing Holiday......Again!
This was our second stay at Liet....and it was just as good as the first if not better. Marie-Louise and Steph were there to welcome us when we arrived and were the same lovely, relaxed hosts. The house was immaculately clean, very well furnished and just as we remembered it. The new covered abri was a fantastic addition to the pool area giving plenty of shade and a relaxing poolside lounge area. If you need a break from the sunshine, the house is shady and cool with lots of space to relax, read a book or play games. From a property point of view this is by far the best we have stayed at, hence coming back....and we will be back again next year! If you want to get out and about there are lot's of medieval towns and villages to visit. Almost every day is market day somewhere. Plenty of vineyards with tours and tasters. Magnificent scenery and on a clear day you can see the pyranees mountains in the distance. You can make your stay as busy or as relaxing as you like. Read the guide book Marie-Louise and Steph have put together and follw their advice on where to eat and visit and you won't be disappointed. Can't wait to get back there! Thanks for a great time!

Stunning surroundings and perfect holiday home
Our family had an amazing time at Liet, where you can have the most relaxing holiday or you can choose to be active and explore the beautiful area. The pool is very hard to leave though! Breathtaking views and so quiet. The house is immaculatly clean and tastefully decorated. Being large, it always felt spacious and cool. The owners, Marie-Louise and Steph, really were so helpful and thoughtful. Easy to communicate with, and provided us with lots of info and tips. Our kids really appreciated the floats for the pool, the ping-pong table and the bikes available. They also wanted to take the gorgeous horses home! Would recommend the lake at Castéra-Verduzan, (inflatable assault course, pedalos, etc) 20min drive, market day in Eauze (Thursday) and Nerac (Saturday), and cycle to Flaran Abbey. We were completely astounded by the art collection there; Renoir, Cezanne, Constable and Dali sculptures to name a few. The art room for children is great too. The Carrefour supermarket in Valence-sur-baise was great for fresh food and wine. A huge thank you to Marie-Louise and Steph who truly go the extra mile for guests and have the loveliest home for us to experience. One day we hope to return!

About the host

Hosted by Marie-Louise Drake

Host profile image
Marie-Louise and her husband Steph moved to the Gers 12 years ago and fell in love with the region straightaway.
Together they make a dynamic team, restoring and conserving ancient and neglected houses with a natural flair for design and interiors. Steph is a highly sought-after artisan carpenter builder whose calm presence, perfectionists approach in major building projects meant that together they have successfully faced many challenges, and the results are beautiful homes renovated to an incredibly high standard.

Why they chose this property

Marie-Louise says it was love at first sight with Liet a falling down farmhouse close to the tiny village of Mansencome. A friend had told her it was for sale and , arriving at the top of the drive she saw the panoramic views and turned to her husband Steph and said ‘ i want it’ Luckily he felt the same and the decision to buy was made before setting a foot through the door. Set in 4 acres of garden,fruit trees and paddocks. The beautiful restored and refurbished LIET is now the perfect place to stay.

What makes this property unique

LIET was owned by a local wine and champagne producer and the orginal huge barrels and workings can be seen in the barn. The family have since become friends and they are delighted to see the house restored to its former glory, but with the all benefits of modern living. The painstaking and tasteful restoration has kept many of the original features as possible without compromising on comfort and style . Although Liet is set in beautiful countryside, it is just 4km from Valence-sur-Biase a bastide village which has at least 4 restaurants , 3 bakers , bank, post office and supermarket. Condom, a lovely historic town is only 8km away with over 20 restaurants, a weekly market and many shops and services.
