Les Contes, Fougax-et-Barrineuf

Les Contes is positioned at the last property before the village and chateau of Montsegur, a significant historical site. It is situated beside La Source de Belisama, a holy spring known for its connection to the feminine tradition. Surrounded by the stunning Pyrenees mountains, it offers a serene escape from urban life.

The main house of Les Contes includes 17 bedrooms along with several gîtes that feature self-contained kitchens and bathrooms. This setup serves groups seeking space and comfort while enjoying a tranquil environment. Specific attention has been given to creating communal areas for relaxation and interaction.

Every morning, Aletheia leads a somatic practice that promotes physical and mental well-being. Guests can unwind in the tucked-away hot tub and sauna under a canopy of stars, enhancing the relaxation experience. The hotel also hosts events like the Les Contes Water Cleanse, where guests can rejuvenate with the natural spring water.

Les Contes offers an extensive library where guests can find a range of books to engage with during their stay. Common spaces are tailored for group activities and gatherings, encouraging interaction among visitors. In the evenings, a cozy hearth and fire pit invite guests to share experiences over wine.

Les Contes places a strong emphasis on sustainability with a commitment to leaving the surroundings more abundant. The property is home to many rescued and wild animals, highlighting its connection to nature. Future developments include treehouses, cabins, and yurts for guests who appreciate tranquility in a natural setting.
