Wonderful, this is a beautiful place to stay. The farmhouse is lovely and the rooms are spacious and offer just want you need to a relaxing holiday. The location is wonderful and the views are amazing, we absolutely loved the Tarn Valley. Harry and Monique are really lovely people and we enjoyed meeting them and staying in their wonderful farmhouse. We could not fault their hospitality. We are a large family and yet we felt we had all the space we needed to relax and enjoy. The children loved the pool and the gardens. The area is full of wonderful places to explore and enjoy. We will definitely be returning to enjoy many more holidays in this special farmhouse. Thank you to Monique and Harry for your hospitality.

A warm welcome from Monique and Harry the owners of this beautiful farmhouse and very well kept pool set in secluded grounds with views of the Pyrennes. Our family gathering of three genarations twelve of us in total fitted very well into the accomodation with a totaly independant cottage for gran and grandad.
An ideal place to relax and enjoy the delightful surroundings and also to visit the medieval villages in the region also Albi is a "must visit" it is the birthplace of Toulouse Lautrec, and don't miss the Magnificent cathedral built of the Pink Bricks which gives the town the name "Ville Rose"
The owners are discreatly on hand with local information which we found extremely helpful regarding "eating places" shopping, and local markets.
Puech Malou is highly recommended in our book "Cinqe etoiles"

We zijn hier in september 2012 geweest en hebben een mooie tijd gehad hier. De eigenaren zijn erg gastvrij en vriendelijk en geven veel tips om de omgeving te verkennen. De gastvrpuw is ook nog eens een uitstekende kok! Het complex is heel charmant met een prachtige tuin en een lekker zwembad. Het ligt erg afgelegen dus je moet wel een auto tot je beschikking hebben. De omgeving is betoverend en er is genoeg te zien en beleven. Wij hebben de steden in de omgeving bezocht en een paardrijrit gedaan, maar er is nog veel meer te doen. Echt een aanrader!

We have stayed at this lovely farmhouse and cottage in the summer of 2009 & again in 2011. What a magical place for our entire family, ranging from the ages of 3 – 71.

The home is charming, well equipped and clean. The grounds will take your breath away from the moment you pull into the drive. It can be difficult to find, so plan to arrive in daylight. It is remote, but that is part of the charm. You can still drive to many sights, restaurants, farmer’s markets, sheep farms, rock climbing etc. You can stay as busy as you like or spend lazy days by the pool, gathering chicken eggs or hunting for bugs as our children did for hours on end.

An idyllic spot on the top of a hill overlooking a beautiful scenery. A nicely restored and very commodious maison. More than enough reasons for having a splendid and relaxed stay in one of the most lovely regions of France. But our hostess and host – Monique and Harry – made of our stay a real treat with their delicious breakfasts and tables d’hotes. And above all with the many pleasant conversations we had together

t was, as always, a perfect holiday. It is a beautiful place. We had a wonderful Christmas time. Delicious diners. Monique is a perfect host. There are a lot of places to see and visit.

Harry and Monique proved to be much more than hosts. They can provide you with many ideas of what to do or see, make reservations for you, offer assistance with maps and navigating your day trips before leaving the house. They are there when you need them and quietly disappear when you do not.

Don’t miss Carcassonne, Cordes-sur-Ciel, the evening farmer’s markets, rock climbing (our 9 year old did it as well), visit to the sheep farm, dinner at the campsite, dinner at Les Secrets Gourmands, flea markets in neighboring towns and bring some good reading material for those lazy afternoons.

Beautiful rooms in very quiet surroundings. Very nicely decorated. Monique and Harry make you feel at home. You can bring your dog, which was important for us. City of Albi is nearby and is really something. The cathedral is something we have never seen anywhere else. We were late in the season, no swimming, but the place has all the comfort you could want.
We also liked the joint dinners, with utmost care prepared by Monique. Outside when possible and inside when it became too cold. We enjoyed our stay very much.
