 | | | French property for sale in Ariege (09), France by the French estate agents, Leggett Immobilier | About Ariege, France Ariege was once an independent country with a proud identity. It is located on France's southern border next to Spain and Andorra and contains vast areas of countryside unspoilt and largely unpopulated. The department is ideal for people wanting to get away from it all. The capital of Ariege is Foix, a small town but with a lot of charm. Two rivers and one mighty rock surround the town giving it a very picturesque natural setting, and it has survived a number of attacks keeping the town's castle very active over the centuries. The ancient capital of the area is St-Lizier, with its fascinating cathedral. The resort of Ax-les-Thermes has 75km of runs (green, blue, red and black) also a purpose built snow park for snowboarders. The resort is at 1400m, with slopes rising to 2300m. There are lots of restaurants in Ax-les-Thermes, the small town linked by a new cable car to the ski resort. There is excellent skiing, friendly people and the ski properties are half the price of the Alps! The resort is 1.25 hours drive from Toulouse airport, and is on the main rail link to Toulouse,or Paris or Barcelona . ARiege has a vast number of huge prehistoric caves, and the D119 road bends right into the mouth of the colossal Grotte du Mas d'Azil. There are regular flights from the UK servicing Toulouse, Carcassonne and Perpignan. Another option is to take either a P&O service from Portsmouth to Bilbao or a Brittany Ferries service from Plymouth to Santander and then travel up from Spain . Alternatively, the fast and comfortable TGV service will take you all the way to Toulouse. The area is not hugely populated, but the local economy continues to improve and property prices are starting to rise. However, when compared to other parts of southern France they represent excellent value for money. |
