The site contains 3 adjoining but independent self-catering holiday homes with shared use of the swimming pool (12m X 6 m) and the park style garden, which is just over an acre in area. They are conveniently located next to a popular restaurant. The homes are part of a former chateau situated in a quiet riverside hamlet in the Cerou Valley in rural south western France, 8km from the medieval town of Cordes sur Ciel and about 20kms from the cultural town of Albi with its famous cathedral and the Toulouse Lautrec museum. Toulouse International Airport is just over an hours drive away, or Rodez Airport is a little closer taking about 45 minutes.
The holiday homes are available to be let individually sleeping 2 to 8 people, or together offering the flexibility to be used by larger groups or extended families accommodating 18 to 20 people. All bed linen is provided and beds will be arranged to best suit your requirements and made up for your arrival. You will need to provide your own bath and pool towels.
All three properties have a completely different style and unique character, providing spacious accommodation retaining many of the original features, including beamed ceilings, and an open fire place, but with the addition of modern style living comforts. The tower forming the main staircase within Maison de Tourelle is the oldest remaining feature of the original Chateau dating back to the 13th century.
We purchased the properties in December 2005 and wish to continue all the good work completed over the last nine years by the previous owners, making further improvements over the coming years.
We hope you find our website easy to use, informative and helpful. We are always looking for ways to improve and impart more information about the holiday homes and surrounding area. Please use the contact us email facility to make any comments or suggestions as to what else you would like to see on the website.
