'Le Belvedere' is unique to the Valley and was originally built over 300 years ago. Since that time as been a government building, local council house, school, and private residence. The house is built from stone and chestnut wood and is finished in walnut. It features built-in walnut cupboards and doors mostly in their original state that have seen over 300 years with very little restoration work needed. The floors in the master bedroom are still in their original state and are made of chestnet parquetry.
In 1995 Jean-Marc and Dominique Crampe purchased Le Belvedere and took on the painstaking job of returning it to its original glory. After 12 years you are today able to see the house restored to its original state with the convenience of modern day services. The adjacent Grange was in ruin at the time the Crampes began their work and they have since completely rebuilt it and are now residing in the Grange as Managers of 'Le Belvedere'.
The current owners of Le Belvedere take the opportunity to enjoy the relaxing French countryside when visiting the Pyrenees and would like to invite you to experience this wonderful property.
