Description from owner

Description

This beautifully peaceful converted barn in the heart of the countryside comes complete with a private heated swimming pool and sun terrace. Located just 2km from local village and close to local markets for fresh produce and an idyllic experience of rural France.

The barn is full of light with high ceilings and traditional wooden beams. The furnishings are comfortable with everything provided for your stay; from crisp, clean white sheets to ice for your evening drinks.

Nearby, explore local flea markets and brocantes, historic bastides, picnic at local lakes or stroll down by the river. Enjoy the shops, restaurants and history in elegant Albi just 20 minutes drive away.

For the energetic, there are active sports like river rafting close by and plenty of space for children to run around in the countryside.

...Or simply lie by the pool and enjoy perfect relaxation!
