Ultima Love

A small, well-hidden sex shop

Ultima Love (sometimes spelled Ulttima Love) occupies 95 m² at 43 rue Victor Hugo, right across from the Tarbes train station. Nothing imposing or anonymous here: it's the neighbourhood boutique format, the kind you push open almost out of curiosity as you step off the train.

The place plays the intimate card rather than the big pleasure supermarket one. Cosy decor, shelves designed so you can take your time looking without feeling watched.

What you'll find here

The shop covers the essentials of the classic sex shop: sex toys, lingerie and various erotic accessories. The assortment is refreshed regularly, with new arrivals that often come up in customer comments.

Prices are described as affordable, a nice change from more touristy chains. The clientele is mixed: couples, women coming alone, men, straight and gay alike, everyone seems to find their place here.

Welcome and atmosphere

What comes up most in the reviews is the human contact. The salesperson or manager (reviews mention a single person, always available) is described as friendly and helpful, able to guide you without judgment or pushy sales talk.

Some customers go as far as calling Ultima Love the best sex shop in Tarbes, betting on this closeness rather than on the size of the store. The cleanliness of the place and its neat feel also come up often in the comments.

Hours and access

The shop is open Tuesday to Saturday, from 3pm to 7pm. It's closed on Sunday and Monday, which makes it a business with tight hours, best planned for late afternoon.

Its position right in front of the station makes it an easy stop if you're arriving in or leaving Tarbes by train, with no real detour through town.
