WELCOME TO OUR GITE
Le Gite de Piquetalen - Quiet and comfortable
Your home from home
Our gite was newly built in 2007. We designed it with the help of an archtiect to reflect the relaxed warmth of the Tarn region. The gite is well furnished and has everything you need to provide you with a comfortable home in both the summer and the winter.
The gite has an open plan kitchen and living area. Its high ceiling and roof beams give it a very spacious feel. Large French windows look out onto the front terrace and add to the sense of spaciousness. The ground floor also has a toilet and shower and the main bedroom which has a double bed. A spiral staircase leads to the mezzanine floor and a second bedroom with two single beds. There is a second terrace at the back of the gite.
The gite is located in a gated garden behind and a good distance from our house. Guests can be assured of their privacy. The gite is surrounded by gardens and has views out onto farmland. It is very quiet and peaceful.
The gite is well equipped. It has a dishwasher, washing machine and microwave in addition to all of the usual equipment you can expect in a well equipped kitchen. Heating is provided by oil filled radiators and there is also a small but very effective wood burning stove. We provide bedding, sheets, towels and blankets so you don't need to bring anything with you.
You can find photos, a video of the gite, a list of the equipment in the gite and architect plans in the column on the right under "More information on our gite".

Our gite is located in a small quiet hamlet surrounded by countryside. It is close to Lavaur (about 4km) which has supermarkets and shops. There are walks from the front door as well as walks in the area. The gite is about 40 minutes from Toulouse and from Albi and close to lots of interesting towns such as Giroussens, Gaillac, Castres and Cordes-sur-Ciel.
