Elegant villa on the Camino de Santiago
My girlfriend loved the week we spent in one of the small bungalows that make up the Ferme de Fiouzaire. The «Ferme de Fiouzaire » is a hilltop domain overlooking the medieval town of L’Isle-Jourdain, a half hour to the west of Toulouse by car and train, but centuries away in mental space. When you take the road winding up to the villa from the train station a sign warns that it is a dead end, but in fact you soon join the Way to Saint James of Compostello, which continues as a path a few hundred meters after pavement ends past the driveway leading to the Ferme. We stayed in one of the small bungalows surrounding the main house and pool. Our bungalow had a double bed on the ground floor, and some smaller beds appropriate for children in a mezzanine above. The kitchen was well equipped with both utensils and basic pantry items — coffee, olive oils, spices. We cooked all our meals and ate on our lovely shaded patio with barbecue and two tables save for one magnificent lunch we ate at the two star Michelin Restaurant, aptly named Le Puits de Saint Jacques (Saint James’ Well) in Pujaurdan, which is a 40 minute walk on the camino, or a 20 minute drive on main roads Our bungalow shared a laundry (free, no coins or tokens) with two adjacent units, but otherwise we had our own private space.
The pool is adjacent to the main house occupied by the owners. It is wide and long enough to do laps (about 7 or 8 meters). The transats (chaise lounges) on the pool deck overlook miles
