About this property

Spacious Stone Barn, Large Pool and Terrace, Peaceful, Rural Location in Tarn.

Our large 4 bedroom Gite sleeps up to 9 people. The converted 200-year-old barn provides a spacious and restful living space of nearly 2,000 sq.ft. On the ground floor there is a fully-equipped, modern kitchen, lounge and dining area, snug and shower room with toilet. On the first floor, there are 4 large bedrooms, one of which is ensuite, and a family bathroom.
The 2 acre garden contains the child-secure 12x6 metre swimming pool within a large, secluded tiled terrace with barbecue area, sun-loungers and sun-shades. The pool and terrace is fenced with two 'child-proof' access gates. The pool has a shallow end with wide corner steps. The garden offers spacious lawns, a field for children's games and places of welcome shade during the summer months. Surrounded on three sides by fields, vineyards and small copses, the house has no passing traffic except for the occasional local farmer checking his crop.
The nearest village offering a selection of shops, bank, pharmacy and a good restaurant is Cahuzac-sur-vere only 10 minutes away, whilst the large town of Gaillac is 15 minutes and the city of Albi is 30 minutes away.
Offering an enclosed pool, large garden, comfortable living and flexible sleeping accommodation, it is an ideal base for a family or group holiday in this beautiful part of South West France.

Marvellous Pool and pool surrounds

We found the house, gardens and pool area perfect for a family holiday. We know the area pretty well but the pool area and outdoor kitchen was probably the best we have found. The house was tasteful decorated and the bedrooms very comfortable. The house manager was helpful and was there for us if needed.

Des vacances réussies !

2 adultes + 6 ados (2 semaines fin juillet). Très belle maison, dans un cadre calme et réposant. Vue dégagée sur la campagne. La maison est très agréable, avec salon et cuisine au rez-de-chaussée (et une salle de bain aussi). Cuisine complètement équipée avec tous les équipements et ustensiles nécessaires. Au premier étage, 4 belles chambres et 2 salles de bain. Grand jardin très bien entretenu, et un coin piscine sécurisé, bien équipé (chaises longues, table et chaises, BBQ, parasol,...) et bien sûr une grande piscine ! Dans la région, on a visité Albi, Gaillac, Cordes/ciel, le musée de l'espace à Toulouse (à faire absolument avec des ados)... Contact facile avec la propriétaire et Lynne, qui sont très gentilles et disponibles. De superbes vacances ! La maison et la région sont à découvrir. Nous n'avons qu'une envie: y retourner pour nos prochaines vacances

Summer 2023 Family Holiday

We had a great stay at this property, it was well equipped and furnished. All requests to the owners and property manager were answered promptly. The pool and surrounding countryside were beautiful with lots of local activities and places of interest to keep everyone from 8yrs old to 80yrs old happy! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Fabulous holiday

Great facilities, fabulous pool and pool area with covered eating area and BBQ. The house was very clean, spacious and comfortable - good ratio of bathrooms to bedrooms. Two separate sitting areas. Very peaceful countryside, but when you do venture out, lots to see and do for all ages. We visited many astonishing well preserved medieval towns (even our teenage sons were impressed), canoed, walked, went bowling several nights and of course ate too much good food. Albi and Cordes are a must. We loved it and did not want to leave. Thanks

Beautiful holiday home.

My family and I had the most wonderful week in this lovely house. The amenities and accommodation are excellent and the house is in an exceptionally lovely hamlet in marvellous countryside. The quality of the kitchen equipment is very good, and the house is very clean and carefully maintained. I would happily return and my family agrees with me.
