Situated in the quiet countryside but within walking distance of Villefranche d'Albigeois with all amenities including a small supermarket, boucherie, boulangerie and bars/restaurants. The beautiful Tarn valley is 10 minutes drive away, and the magical city of Albi, a UNESCO heritage site, is 20 minutes away. Castres, Cordes sur Ciel and Gaillac are all close by and Toulouse airport is just over an hour's drive. Visit the local markets, sample the local wines at the vineyards in Gaillac, explore Albi and the nearby towns, or just relax and soak up the sun around the pool.

We live in the house next to the gite. We do not use the pool when we have guests in the gite. There is a comprehensive information pack and we will do our best to answer any questions or suggestions on places to visit. We will be happy to do this over an apero!

The gite is very private and is not overlooked. Guests have the entire upper garden to themselves, and this area includes the pool.

There are no hidden charges. There is no charge for cleaning, heating, bedding and no deposit is required. Please ask for rates for long stays.
