Lovely stay in a property that is very remote but in a beautiful area of France near to lots of wonderful places to visit. The property itself is comfortable and has everything that you need for a large group.

Lovely big pool and spacious house. Stunning view from the west side. Remote location with a long rough track so maybe not appealing for some people. We got used to the track and loved exploring the beautiful local villages. The dormice in the roof can be noisy! Also some shower plumbing issue which meant we couldn’t use one shower for a few days. If you’re staying when the Samba band extravaganza is on in Bruniquel (last weekend of August) it’s really worth going- great fun in stunning surroundings.

The setting and location are absolutely stunning. Perched up on a hill with a view across miles and miles of rolling French landscape, which is even more perfect at sunset with a cold glass of white wine (which was generously provided for us on our arrival). The house itself is big! The downstairs stays quite cool (even in the 38 degree heat that we experienced), and we managed to keep the upstairs cool at night, opening all the windows (and hearing all the wild animals, which was great). There are so many deer, eagles, birds and other wild animals that you will see daily. We sat out one night and just sat there watching a group of 8 deer, including 2 tiny babies, grazing in the field opposite in the hazy evening light, before staring at an array of pristine stars in the warm night sky. As for the place... the pool is wonderful, tucked away round the back and perfectly secluded. The house is beautiful and charming, although if I had to find a criticism it would be that it could do with a bit of modernising or freshening up inside. Having said that, we hardly spent any time inside except to sleep and prepare food. Also note, bring your own pool towels. Otherwise, everything else is provided. We would definitely return and are already contemplating staying again next year, but for longer this time. The local village of Penne is a treat and dinner at The Terrasse restaurant is a must. Also the local villages of Puycelsi and Saint Antonin are worth a visit.

Nous étions 2 familles de 5 personnes avec des enfants de 5 à 12 ans!
Nous avons été accueilli avec un cheese & wine ainsi que des fruits... Un accueil plus que sympa!
Cette maison est idéale pour les enfants mais aussi pour les adultes! Maison très fonctionelle, pratique et spacieuse, que ce soit dans les pièces à vivre et dans les chambres. La cuisine est très bien équipée, avec 2 frigos, et de quoi cuisiner comme à la maison!
La maison est située en pleine nature, entre les bois et les champs! La vue est superbe. Les enfants ont plein d'espace pour jouer (champs, bois, ...) et crier! Mais aussi pour aller à la découverte de la faune (lézard, serpent, biches, chauve souris, rapaces...). La piscine est tout le temps au soleil. En terme d'activité, la maison, même si pas au centre du village est super bien située. Idéal pour aller visiter Cordes, Bruniquel, Puycelscy, Antonin Noble val , Albi,... faire les caves à Gaillac, faire du Kanoyoning sur l'Avreyron ou encore faire des randonnées même au départ de la maison! IL y a vraiment de quoi s'occuper!
