+ Ulteriori informazioni su Lucy and Simon About the Owners: We are an English famiy who moved here 5 years ago after falling in love with this unspoilt corner of the Spanish Pyrenees. We are keen outdoor enthusiasts, from hiking and mountain biking to spotting the many birds of prey and marvelling at the huge variety of pyrenean flowers. Our favorite spot when we stay at the house is the terrace as it is south-facing and well sheltered so it is the perfect place for dining “al fresco” from spring through to autumn.
