Located in the tranquil village of Avajan and the stunning Louron Valley of the Pyrenees, you will find our lovingly restored old village post lodge. The perfect base from which to relax and unwind from the hustle and bustle of modern life and enjoy the vast array of outdoor activities immediately available in the surrounding peaks and valleys
The Pyrenees is an unspoilt wilderness of mountains, rivers, lakes, waterfalls with some of the most stunning scenery that France has to offer - the perfect location for winter and summer outdoor adventures, or simply just relaxing.. As well as our organised activity holiday itinerary, we can offer you the option of half board accommodation catering for groups with specialist pursuits in mind - ranging from serious cycling or hiking, right through to corporate team building events and artists' retreats, where the lodge is simply used as your base. LâAncienne Poste was founded by James Dealtry who, along with an unquenchable thirst for the great outdoors and passion for the mountains, has nearly 20 years of experience in guiding and teaching groups in the mountains in both summer and winter. Thanks to his time spent in the Alps, James has learned to speak fluent French and gathered extensive experience in dealing with clients ranging from young families to high-end corporate hospitality. He has worked closely with luxury hotels and chalets. Full of enthusiasm for all the region has to offer, motivating, energetic and yet easy-going, he has an instinctive understanding of clients' needs on and off the mountain. With attention to detail that is second to none, you can rest assured that every element of your holiday will be taken care of to a very high standard, and with a sense of fun.
