I'd highly recommend Bagneres de Luchon.

Within spitting distance of the big names like Peyresourde, Tourmalet, but quieter and mysterious mountains going the other way and skirting the Spanish border (ie Col des Ares, Col du Portillon). You can also time trial up / down the climb to Superbagneres.

Do you have any tips on getting there? Or to that part of the Pyrenees in general? Having looked it up, I'm quite taken by the idea of going for a week in the summer, but can't work out the best way. I want to avoid flying if I can, but it seems like there aren't a huge number of other options.
