Cottage Duo Vigne Rouge Sauna - LesCottages duTarn

Welcome to the Duo Vigne Rouge & Primeur Sauna — 92 m² — 12 people — Brens, Gaillac, Tarn

Nestled in the heart of the Gaillac vineyards, in Brens, just 2 minutes from the A68 motorway between Albi and Toulouse, the Duo Vigne Rouge & Primeur brings together two adjoining cottages on one level for a total surface area of 92 m², rated 3 stars, fully air-conditioned. Ideal for large groups, families and reunions with friends of up to 12 people, this unique duo combines independence and conviviality in a natural and soothing setting in the heart of the Gaillac vineyards. Two apartments, a common door open only in duo format, a single estate — the ideal formula to be together while preserving everyone's privacy.

Two independent and warm living spaces

Le Duo Vigne Rouge & Primeur is the best of both worlds: two warm and bright living rooms, each with its own decorative identity, brought together in a single convivial living space for your group. La Vigne Rouge welcomes you to its warm autumn universe — ochre, rust and natural wood tones — while Le Primeur offers you a refined and trendy decoration. Two complementary atmospheres for a stay rich in colour and conviviality, where each sub-group can find its own space while enjoying the common life.

Each cottage has its own bright living room with a 140×190 sofa bed, a smart TV and a bay window opening directly onto its single-storey terrace. Two fully equipped kitchens — espresso machine, oven, microwave, dishwasher, kettle, freezer, complete crockery and cookware — will allow you to prepare your meals to enjoy indoors or on one of the two terraces facing nature. Two barbecues available for your outdoor summer evenings, around a shared meal under the Tarn stars. The air conditioning guarantees freshness in summer and comfort in winter, for a pleasant stay whatever the season.

Two terraces on one level — The Tarn art of living in large groups

Le Duo has two complementary terraces on one level, accessible directly from each living room without functions or stairs. The terrace of the Vigne Rouge, facing north-west, offers beautiful light at the end of the day and a soothing view of the Gaillac countryside — ideal for your evening aperitifs facing the vineyards and your alfresco dinners in the golden light of the setting sun. The terrace of the Primeur, facing south-east, benefits from generous sunshine in the morning and a view of the estate's wooded garden — umbrella pines, cedars, oaks and pear trees — ideal for your breakfasts in the sun and your lunches in the open air. Two distinct and complementary outdoor spaces so that each sub-group can enjoy its own corner of paradise while staying together.

A few minutes' drive away, the Biodiversity Labyrinth of the Domaine de Peyrole invites you to an educational and fun walk in the heart of wild nature. On a plot of unspoilt nature, a labyrinth has been traced in the heart of the tall grass, where butterflies, bees, dragonflies and wildflowers have reclaimed their rights. Educational panels mark out the route and offer you a challenge: answer questions about the local fauna and flora, write down the right letters and reconstruct the mystery word! A free, outdoor activity, accessible to all.

L'Art de Bien-Être, partner of the Cottages du Tarn, offers massages, sophrology and natural treatments to prolong your relaxing interlude. The combination of infrared sauna offered, two sunny terraces on one level and wellness treatments nearby makes the Duo Vigne Rouge & Primeur an essential address for large groups looking for rejuvenation in the Tarn.

Our storey — The spirit of the Cottages du Tarn

We are Martial and Cathy. Peyrole is the land where Martial grew up: the old family farm, the fields, the Tarn countryside. After 5 years as a farmer and then 20 years as a director in the agri-food industry, he felt the need to return to his roots. It is here that Cathy, and I began in 2012 to lovingly renovate the buildings of the old farm to transform them into comfortable and authentic cottages. Today, the Cottages du Tarn is 12 accommodation spread over two sites — Peyrole and Brens — all rated 3 stars, all carefully equipped. Our philosophy: accommodation where you feel really good, in a preserved natural environment, with hosts who are available and passionate about their region.

Before your arrival, you will receive a complete practical guide with access, WiFi code and best local addresses. A gourmet welcome gift awaits you on arrival.
