Comfort, countryside and Castres

We had a wonderful week at this lovely conversion. Sheda gave us a lovely welcome, including a fire already lit in the woodburning stove to ward of a chilly evening, and a really lovely bottle of wine from a local vineyard. The property is really well, situated close to delightful villages like Lautrec driving through gorgeous Southern French countryside, but with all the convenience and amenities of the pretty town of Castres just 10 minutes away. There’s brilliant information available about all aspects of your stay, and Tom also popped by to make sure all was working well. Recommended.

Stay in the countryside

The owners converted a barn into a lovely, well furnished gite. Although the only source of heat was a wood stove, we stayed comfortably warm. It's a great location to relax and take walks in the countryside.

Beautiful accommodation in a lovely rural lication

We had a wonderful holiday. Accommodation was perfect and Tom and Sheda were very friendly and helpful. The gite had a very comfortable king sized bed and comfortable sitting and was very well equipped with lots of books and dvds. We would certainly recommend this gite for a relaxing, get away from it all holiday.

Gite near Lautrec

This is a lovely gite in a rural position. The property was faultless and extremely well equipped. Set in a large garden in which to while away the time. The owners were very welcoming and helpful whilst still remaining unobtrusive. Would recommend this gite to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Sheda Savage

Host profile image
Tom and I have been living in France for over 15 years now, having moved here from Yorkshire, England. One of the best decisions we have ever made.

We like nothing better than going for a walk in the morning, with beautiful countryside on our doorstep or sometimes, to be more energetic, take a cycle ride.

We have travelled to many places in our lives from the Canary Islands to Kenya, but we are always happy to return to our 'little Tuscany' in France.

So why not join us and discover why we settled in this special part of SW France?

Why they chose this property

The property itself was ideal for us not too big and not too small. It is rural but not isolated less than 5 kms to Lautrec or nearest town is 10 kms to Castres. Both of these places are great to visit.

The airports to us are of equal distance from Carcassonne or Toulouse - you choose.

What makes this property unique

The view was the overriding factor that sold this house to us. Come and see for yourself.
