Holiday Apartments Villas Cottages in Gers

According to tourists who often come to enjoy its French “joie de vivre”, Gers is one of the most sunny and friendly part of France. With its foie gras, its Armagnac and its indolent landscapes nestled on the beginnings of the Pyrénées mountains slopes, Gers is a land of plenty. Region of exchange and discovery, it deserves its reputation and will not disappoint you. Willing for a break and for calmness? Just come and discover the wonders of the South-West of France. Located between Bordeaux and Toulouse, in the heart of the Gascogne region, Gers landscapes have preserved all their ancient charms. This region which is the mother land of d’Artagnan has not lost its “panache”! For a cultural journey, just follow the guide and enter into another world, which makes you take many steps back into the past. Visit the Auch Cathedral, striking for its architecture and its size, and which is a jewel of gothic architecture. Both the charming fortified village of Laressingle, located in the middle of Armagnac, and the Avezan or Lavardens castles will take you back in time. All of these are very well preserved. Gers is a land of paradox, where the 20th century’s modernity coexists with a long heritage from the past. An increasing number of hikers follow the tracks of the Saint-Jacques de Compostelle’s pilgrimage which passes through the Gers and its hilly landscapes. All of them appreciate the warm welcome of the inhabitants of the region and its local gastronomy.
