'Chapeliers' is our two roomed Chambres d'hotes (B&B) in an 18th century mansion which stands at the foot of the Château de Foix in the heart of the medieval centre of the departmental capital of the Ariège, in the Midi-Pyrénées. We have secure private parking and a relaxing garden for our guests to use. NEW! We are running residential pottery courses all year round on demand (no restrictive set dates).

'Le Petit Chapeau' is our four person Gîte (holiday home), 12 kilometres from Foix in the tranquil mountain village of Sahuc. This is beautiful relaxing walking and cycling country. We offer Le Petit Chapeau for weekly rentals in the Spring, summer and Autumn and for a much cheaper monthly amount during winter months - ideal for those looking for property in the Midi Pyrenees!
