Was part of group of 4 that spent a week at Mark and Niamh's lodge in June 2022 and this place is just brilliant. - 20 minutes from lourdes airport with taxi pickup organised via the lodge able to fit 4 bike boxes. - Bike Shed with every tool needed to assemble bikes and for any maintenance required during the week and very safe storage at night. - Any number of climbs minutes from the lodge door with plenty of pre-planned routes provided. - Very spacious and clean bedrooms. - Great dinner and breakfast to get you over those climbs - Tea/coffee on hand whenever with great indoor and outdoor seating area. Everything you need for cycling is available at the lodge but one of the big highlights is the great atmosphere around the lodge, chatting with others staying at the lodge over breakfast or dinner, getting the local intel off Mark and Niamh, laughing over a beer after a day in the saddle. Couldn't ask for more. Can't wait to go back! /Mick…

If you want a fun few days cycling some of the best roads and Cols in France, look no further than this Lodge. From the great welcome from Niamh and Mark to the the top notch accommodation, food and drink, as well as the great advice and help, I can only say that it made it one of the best weekends and holiday experiences that I've ever had. I almost forgot the great company of our fellow guests which added to the fun! I will definitely be back!

Thanks so much for the really lovely review Pierce. It was such a pleasure to host Dermot & yourself for your long weekend cycling trip. We're so glad that you enjoyed it and got to sample some of the cols on this trip...you've an excuse to come back and tick off some more! One of the things we love about the Lodge is hearing the chat & laughter between all guests before & after cycling...no better way to start & end your cycling day. We look forward to seeing you both again. All the best, Niamh & Mark.

If you love cycling, hiking or trail running, and being with like minded people, then look no further. Niamh and Mark have the perfect place in one of the loveliest locations. The room was clean and comfortable and had the most amazing views. The food was another highlight - you'll never go hungry and Mark's porridge is a must have before setting off for the day. We stayed for a weekn and Niamh provided us with some fabulous cycling routes, whilst Mark provided us with a detailed weather report every morning. We will be back - we have more mountains to climb!

Thanks so much for the lovely review Sarah. It was a genuine pleasure to meet and host Chris & yourself for a week in August. No better way to celebrate a special anniversary than ticking off all those legendary cols and you certainly never stopped conquering those climbs from the moment you arrived! We're delighted that you enjoyed the food too, and yes the porridge is definitely a sure thing for getting you up those mountains, Haha, yes...Mark the in-house weatherman, all part of the service here..:) We look forward to seeing you both again. All the best Niamh & Mark

If you are an avid cyclist and want to experience some amazing mountain routes, this is the place for you! The lodge is in a quiet village surrounded by stunning scenery. Hosts Niahm and Mark are truly welcoming and excited to share their knowledge about the local area, cycling and hiking routes. And the food? Fantastic! I can’t imagine a more perfect place to have spent 5 days cycling with good friends. We are already planning our next trip…..

Thanks so much for the great review Diana & David and we're delighted that you enjoyed the whole experience of the Lodge. It was a real pleasure to host your group for some Autumn cycling in the area and the cooler Autumn days didn't stop you making the most of every minute on the bike, chapeau! We're glad that you enjoyed the food as well...it's just as important as the cycling.:) Glad to hear you are planning a trip back, we look forward to that. All the best Niamh & Mark.

If you want to cycle, talk cycling, eat great food & relax -- all in an authentic atmosphere, Mark & Niamh's place in the little village of Saint-Savin, France is the best. The rooms were well appointed, and the family-style meals made for great conversations with a diverse group. The cycling resources -- maps, knowledgable hosts & laundry services were a bonus.

The Pyrenees Cycling Lodge is snuggled into the village of Saint-Savin and staying there was like finding treasure! Several cycling friends and I enjoyed a week of incredible cycling, fabulous food and terrific accomodations. The hosts provided excellent and precise information on the many epic rides in the area. The rooms were clean and comfortable and several had incredible views. I would love to return and explore more routes that are still on the long list!

Thanks so much for the lovely review Susanne. It was a genuine pleasure to host your group at the Lodge. We had a great week with you guys, really good company to have around with great chat & laughs. Even though the weather was a little cooler in Oct, you certainly made the most of every day. And yes, there's still many more left for you to explore. We hope you enjoyed your onward trip in Italy. We look forward to welcoming you again some time. All the best, Niamh & Mark.

We had the pleasure of booking a stay at the Pyrenees Cycling Lodge and enjoyed a few days of hiking in the high mountains. The hosts Niamh and Mark are exceptional not just with their outstanding hospitality, but also their knowledge and information. Being keen cyclists and hikers themselves they were able to make some great suggestions for where to go and what to see, taking in account the daily weather as well. The food during the stay is also another highlight, made fresh on the premises each day, Mark's infamous porridge for breakfast saw us fuelled really well for the days activities and was a real fan favourite! The dinners were fresh and provided a great variation from one day to the next. The rooms are great and comfortable and the views from the lodge across to the mountains are really breathtaking. You really appreciate being right in the mountains. Highly recommend.…

Thanks so much for the thorough review Bella & Stephen. It was a pleasure to host you both at the Lodge and we're so glad that you enjoyed your stay...it is quite some view from that balcony. We're glad you got to get up & into the mountains and experience some of the hiking. You sure are spoiled for choice here...on & off the bike, it's an outdoor paradise! Haha yes Mark's porridge is certainly getting a name for itself. We wish you all the best with your new adventure and look forward to seeing you again soon. All the best Niamh & Mark.

Thanks so much for the great review Tim. It's great that you and the guys came back to stay here...the place where you met a few years back. That's one of the things we love about the Lodge is how it brings people together through a common interest! Next time we'll order better weather for you.;) All the best Niamh & Mark.

I organized a Pyrenees cycling adventure with group of 12 cyclists from the west coast. I couldn't have selected a better venue for this event. Not only was the location perfect for riding the iconic TdF climbs, but the hosts at the lodge are absolutely wonderful people. The lodge is very comfortable and the food was fantastic. Mark and Niamh will go out of their way to meet dietary restrictions and fuel all riders for any day of cycling one could imagine. Their knowledge of all of the cycling routes was invaluable and our group was blown away by the continuous support throughout the week. If you are looking to ride the Pyrenees, look no further than the Pyrenees Cycling Lodge!

Thanks so much for the lovely review Umberto! It was such a pleasure to host the OTH group, a fantastic group and we certainly had a lot of fun with you guys...great company to have around the place! As cyclists ourselves we make sure you know all the local roads to make sure you get the best of the area when you stay with us. You guys certainly ticked off a lot of the TDF climbs and the hidden gems when you were here. Look forward to seeing you all again sometime. All the best Niamh & Mark.
