Welcome to La Parenthèse de Saint-Esselin, a little corner of nature in Larreule, in the heart of the Hautes‑Pyrénées.
Spanning one hectare, we have created a family-friendly, welcoming and cosy retreat, offering a perfect blend of comfortable accommodation and a relaxing atmosphere.
Here, you immediately get the sense that time can slow down.
In the morning, you can enjoy the peace and quiet, the soft light, and a coffee on the terrace. During the day, everyone goes at their own pace: reading, swimming, walking, or having a nap (yes, a proper one).
The estate offers two holiday cottages, safari lodges and ‘bare’ pitches for camping enthusiasts.

When it comes to relaxation, you’ll find a heated outdoor pool (May to October) to make the summer last a little longer.
Whether as a couple, a family or with friends, you come here for a break… and leave with wonderful memories.
And above all: here, you’re not just ‘guests’, you’re welcome.
Because a holiday cottage in Larreule is also about the atmosphere, the welcome, and that little feeling of being “just like at home”.
We love simple yet well-appointed stays:
space, fresh air and facilities that make life easier.

In Larreule, you can visit an ancient abbey. According to the *Gallia Christiana*, the abbey is said to have been founded by Odon I, Viscount of Montaner.
The monastery was situated on the route of the GR 101, continuing on from the Via Tolosana, one of the four pilgrimage routes in France leading to Santiago de Compostela.
• Lourdes, Pau, Tarbes: around 30 to 45 minutes away
• Marciac: about 20 minutes away, famous for its summer jazz festival.
There are some lovely walks starting from the village, particularly in the Larreule Forest (around 80 hectares). It’s the perfect way to get some fresh air without having to drive.
The nearest ski resorts are about 1 hour and 20 minutes away: perfect for a winter getaway.
