The Midi-Pyrenees / Tarn region
Here in the TARN SW France, the rich & contrasting scenery varies from plains to mountains, and you are never far from places to explore and sights to visit:
In the summer, music festivals are held in the prestigious surroundings of the 12th century cathedral of ALBI, birth town of the artist Toulouse Lautrec.
The medieval village of CORDES is a gem of Gothic architecture on its « sugar loaf » 110m high, while the fairy-tale medieval walled city of CARCASSONNE, one hour away, is breathtaking.
When you tire of the rural delights of the TARN, why not visit pink-bricked TOULOUSE (“La Ville Rose”), with its beautiful squares, chic shops and many art galleries.
Though vibrant and cosmopolitan, TOULOUSE has a laid-back village-like atmosphere, and a relaxed pace of life. You will enjoy watching the world go by at the numerous pavement cafés in the Place Capitole, the city's heart since the 12th Century.
There are four excellent championship GOLF COURSES all about 20/30 mins away.
For the more technically minded you can visit the Space City “Cité de L'Espace” with MIR station, Ariane space rocket prototype and interactive games, making it also an interesting & unusual day trip for the children.
For longer day trips the PYRÉNÉES are 2 hours away, the nearest MEDITERRANEAN beach (Narbonne Plage) is just under 2 hours and the ATLANTIC Ocean at Biarritz is 3 hours.
Gaillac area
Enjoy a stroll through the interesting & colourful street-markets to stock up on the fresh local produce.
GAILLAC, LISLE SUR TARN and RABASTENS through their typically fortified architecture will give you a taste of the middle ages with their handsome brick façades, half-timbered houses, and arcaded town squares.
Some of the best vineyards are to be found in the GAILLAC region, one of the oldest wine producing areas in France, originally planted by the Romans. We recommend some great winetasting tours, sampling GAILLAC's high quality wines.
Beyond the GAILLAC vineyards, and their gently undulating hills, hikers will take pleasure in walking through the large forests of the Grésigne and Sivens.
How to get there
Fly Easyjet, British Airways, FlyBe, BMI to Toulouse International Airport which is only 25/30 mins away Fly Ryannair to Carcassonne and Rodez Airports which are 90 mins away Car hire is available from all these airports
