USEFUL LINKS
Holidays in Gascony - do as much or as little as you want. Lie by the pool and enjoy the peace and tranquility or why not visit Nogaro, Eauze, Auch, Agen, Biarritz, Pau, Toulouse and Bordeaux? There are many festivals held here including Salsa a Vic and Jazz at Marciac. The Circuit Paul Armagnac with its programme of motorbike, car and even lorry racing, is just a few minutes drive away.
The Gers, or Gascony, to use its historic name, is one of the most beautiful areas of France with a wealth of history and culture, no pollution and little traffic.
