About this property

Delightful and secluded farmhouse, lovely gardens and lavender edged pool

Mas de Gibert is an old stone farmhouse standing in 3 acres of its own grounds and surrounded by open countryside, Throughout we have endeavored to create an ambience that is in keeping with its essential character whilst providing comfort and originality.
The farmhouse is beautifully cool and spacious with accommodation on two floors.
Stone steps lead up from the flower filled courtyard taking you into a fully equipped kitchen with dining table and chairs and onto the lounge with wood burning stove, comfy chairs and sofa. From the lounge there is a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom ( toilet, shower, sink. There is another door off the lounge onto a large balcony for outdoor eating and relaxing with a staircase leading through a garden to the pool for your sole use
The entrance to the ground floor is off the courtyard. As you enter there is a room with a double bed. Leading off this room there is a bathroom (bath, sink,toilet and shower) and another double bedroom with two single beds and french windows which leads out to the back terrace.

Outdoors there is a variety of places to sit and relax with much mature planting. There is a flower lined path to the pool area which has security gates. The pool using a salt system is 10mx5m with large rectangular steps. The depth of the shallow end is approx 1 mtr with a deep end of just under 2 mtrs. There is a large expanse of terrace around the pool surrounded by flowerbeds with recliners, parasols, table and chairs with a hammock in a shady corner. My partner and I live in the adjoining barn which faces away from the Gîte and is quite private.

Agréables vacances en famille

Nous avons passé de très agréables vacances dans la maison d’Alison et Marc qui est conforme voir mieux que sur l’annonce. La piscine est suffisamment grande pour pouvoir y nager un peu et nous avons bien aimé les trois chambres avec chacunes leur accès indépendant.

Magnifique

Nous avons eu un super séjour à Ginals! La région est vraiment agréable et les villes et villages des alentours sont super beaux (mention spéciale à Najac en soirée et à St Antonin). Le logement était également top: très bien équipé à l'intérieur, superbement aménagé à l'extérieur et piscine magnifique dans un environnement super calme. On a pu en profiter pour admirer les étoiles car il n'y a aucune pollution lumineuse. On reviendra sûrement. :-)

En un seul mot : Excellent

Cadre extrêmement agréable : maison, jardin charmants, belle piscine au top. Rien ne manque dedans comme dehors : parasols partout, tables (sur la terrasse, au bord de la piscine, dans le jardin), ping pong, boules, même un ballon pour jouer dans la piscine. Les propriétaires très gentils et très arrangeants concernant l’arrivée. On y reviendra sans hésitation si on retourne dans la région.

Havre de paix

Le gîte est top! Décorer avec beaucoup de goût. Le cadre est exceptionnel, très pittoresque et moderne . Les extérieurs et les équipements sont fabuleux. Attention il n’y a pas de mico- ondés et quand on a des enfants c’est pas toujours pratique! La région est propice au repos et au calme! De très beaux villages aux alentours. On a adoré ! Merci aux hôtes qui sont extrêmement discret malgré la promiscuité de leur logement ! Tout était parfait!

Feels like home

This place is really perfect, the well equiped old house with lovely gardens all around feels like home. Garden furniture and umbrella’s everywhere, always a place to find in the sun or just in the shadows. The pool is fantastic. Host Alison was very kind and helpful. She lives next door with her husband but you’ll never see them and they let you enjoy in privacy. We really didn’t want to leave...

Wonderful French Summer Holiday.

This was our forth stay at Ginals and as always it was wonderful. The house is very nice and well equipped. The garden and pool are beautiful and the location is lovely and peaceful. We had a very relaxing week and hope to return next year.

Swimming pool is amazing

The salt water swimming is incredible, it was so much nicer than a chlorinated one, we all loved it. The house has a lovely rustic charm and all the plants around the house attract all kinds of bees and insects, to walk down to the pool and hear them all is amazing. The planting around the swimming pool is the same, it’s beautiful. If you’re after a peaceful quiet place this ticks all the boxes. It’s a 30 min drive to a supermarket, but you can’t have peaceful and quiet with one next door. The kids loved the house, it has acres of land and they could wonder off happily. Highly recommended

better than the photos led us to believe

We were looking for a house with character and a pool in this part of France. We are a family of five, the accommodation worked perfectly. The house has been renovated with character and the bathrooms are modern. The pool was the big draw and we spent a lot time there. The planting between the house and the pool has been done with a great deal of care and attracts butterflies and bees by the score. From the balcony at the back of the house where we had most of our meals we watched a family of owls in the barn opposite. We would go to Verfeil to get bread ( 10 min drive), Caylus and St Antonin for shopping( both very pretty), the local markets are fabulous with the most amazing fruit and veg. If you want to get away this place is wonderful. Even our kids loved it. And if you like dogs then the owner's dog, Eddy, is a charmer and you won't be able to resist her company

Great holiday at Ginals. Our second stay and just as good as the first.

We had a fantastic time at Ginals. We stayed last year and had such a good time that we returned this year. The house is lovely and is very well equipped. Having a pool to ourselves is great. Our daughter loves it, getting in the pool every day. It is in a really quite location but there are plenty of places to visit within a short drive. We hope to return next year.

Peaceful and characterful home from home

We enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing family holiday in this beautiful and very well cared for home. Remote and peaceful but only a short drive to many places of interest and some great canoeing!

Gorgeous cottage set within a little bit of French paradise.

We returned this Summer after visiting last year as we loved it so much and it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrive we relax immediately and it really is our most favourite property that we have visited on our many years of trips to France. We never normally return to the same place twice but we broke our rule this year and I know we will be back again one day.

Prachtige en heerlijke rustige plek.

Alison en Mark hebben een prachtige plek gecreeerd. De schittende tuin en het heerlijke zwembad bieden heel veel prive ruimte. Het huis is heel compleet en prima ingericht. Wij hebben er met 2 kinderen een perfecte week gehad. De locatie is een goede uitvalsbasis voor trips in de regio, maar wij vonden het ook heerlijk de dag rondom het zwembad te relaxen, 's avonds een bbq en genieten op het balkon van de ondergaande zon. Alison en Mark zijn zeer gastvrij en lieten ons ook alle ruimte. Dit is absoluut een plek voor ons om naar terug te gaan.

Just the perfect place for a family holiday

Gibert is all charm and tranquility. The farmhouse is very comfortable and full of character. The pool area is magnificent and the whole property is full of interesting trees and plants, with lots of colour and a wide variety of interesting smells! We especially liked the fig trees and the plum trees, and of course the vegetable and herb gardens. We were a family of five, including small children, and we all had such a fabulous time we hardly moved from the property all week. (Nb: we did spot the comment in the last review about the suitability of the property for small children, but to be honest we didn't see this as an issue at all. The steps between the two floors are easily negotiated and if we had had any qualms about our smallest child being downstairs we would have taken the double room next to the room where the single beds are rather than the one upstairs.)

A corner of paradise!

This property was simply beautiful! The pool area was so lovely and well equipped as was the whole property. It would not be suitable for a family with young children as you have to go outside and down steps to the 2 other bedrooms, but apart from that, this property really is a little piece of paradise, set in the most stunning area of France and set in a small hamlet and not overlooked in the slightest. Very private.

This is my happy place. Don't book in case it means I can't get in. You'd only find it too relaxing, special and beautiful...

A spécial place

I have stayed at Mas Gibert for several years and would recommend it without hesitation. Over the years we have stayed as a couple, and with the whole family. The setting is idyllic. The gite is tastefully furnished and decorated and is always immaculate. The real charm of Mas Gibert is the peace and quiet. There are several spots to hide away and read or snooze, in the hammock, on the balcony or by the pool. If you should want to venture out St Antonin-Noble-Val Sunday market is a must. There several stunning medieval hill top villages for markets, lunch or dinner including Najac, Belcastle and Corde. The more energetic have access to bikes and canoeing from St Antonin on the Averyon. This is a very special place.
