Un petit coin de paradis

Parfait petit gîte pour une personne ou un couple. Je cherchais un pied-à-terre en pleine campagne, à la fois assez proche d'Albi pour y retrouver des amies et de divers autres lieux à visiter (Cordes, Cagnac...) et de randonnées. Le gîte est très beau et le cadre magnifique (ah, les soirées à regarder les étoiles, loin de toute lumière artificielle !). Les propriétaires sont très accueillants. Merci à Michel de ses bons plans !

Un petit coin de paradis

Un séjour placé sous le signe de la quiétude. Des hôtes accueillants et un logement répondant à toutes les attentes pour un couple en recherche de repos et de silence. Seule condition incontournable : une météo clémente pour pouvoir profiter de la superbe terrasse et de la vue des plus agréables.

Bien dans l'ensemble, mais des inconvénients...

L'accueil est très sympathique. Néanmoins le logement présente des inconvénients pour les gens de grande taille (poutre très basse qui coupe la chambre en deux). Par ailleurs, il manque une machine à laver.

Intimiste au milieu de la campagne tarnaise

Le pigeonnier est très agréable , niché au milieu d’un vaste jardin rempli d’arbres multiples : Olivier, chêne truffier , genévrier.... les propriétaires sont au petit soin pour notre meilleur confort. La cerise sur le gâteau : les tomates du jardin de Laurent et Denise sont sublimes !a refaire dès que possible! Merci beaucoup
