The Midi-Pyrenees / Tarn region

The Midi-Pyrénées is the largest French region, and is located between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The region is famous for its good living and boasts the longest life expectancy in France. It comprises eight departments: Ariège, Aveyron, Gers, Haute-Garonne, Hautes-Pyrénées, Lot, Tarn and Tarn-et-Garonne. With the exception of the Hautes-Pyrénées all owe their name to the river that runs through it. 
The region is predominantly rural and has plenty of attractions to visit. Rocamadour, in the Lot, is among the most visited places of interest in France, second only to Mont Saint-Michel. 

If you are interested in insects and nature, there is Micropolis in the Aveyron, near here you can also visit the spectacular and breathtaking Millau Bridge on the A75 where it crosses the Tarn. At over 300 meters (the highest in the world) it is even taller than the Eiffel tower. Also the Cité de l'Espace, the space experience in Toulouse with MIR station, Ariane space rocket prototype and interactive games, making it a fantastic place to visit with something for all the family.

Here in the Tarn, the lush and contrasting scenery varies from plains to mountains, and you are never far from places to explore and sights to visit. There are lots of cultural and sporting activities to enjoy in the area, from Opera and String quartetes playing in the courtyard of a vineyard, to golf, horse riding and bicycling, windsurfing, canoeing, walking, fishing, rock climbing etc. A holiday here can be as quite or as active as you please The medieval village of Cordes-sur-ciel is a beautiful example of Gothic design on its rocky outcrop, while the magnificent medieval walled city of Carcassone, 90 minutes away, is breathtaking. 

If you need a quick fix of French sophistication why not visit the vibrant and cosmopolitan, pink-bricked Toulouse (“La Ville Rose”), with its beautiful squares, chic shops and many art galleries. An unmissable town is Albi, with its 1000 year-old bridge over the River Tarn (one of the oldest brick-built bridges in existence) and the Toulouse Lautrec Museum and gallery. 

Also in the Midi-Pyrénées is the Gresigne Forest. This glorious ancient woodland, one of the largest in Europe, covers three and a half thousand hectares, houses over one hundred species of oak tree, and is rich with birdlife, wild boar, deer, and hares - and red squirrels! There are many shaded and secluded walks and cycleways within the forest. For those for whom horse riding is the way to explore the countryside, there are stables and riding schools in the area. There are several excellent golf courses in the region.

 Beautiful walks through vineyards in all directions are possible. 

 This area of France is loved by cyclists – the Tarn region offers more than 20 tours with 4 difficulty levels — from family outing to experienced cyclists course.


Gaillac area

Enjoy a stroll through the interesting & colourful street-markets to stock up on the fresh local produce. 

GAILLAC and its surrounding villages have typically fortified architecture that 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 in France are to be found in the GAILLAC region, one of the oldest wine producing areas in France, originally planted by the Romans, before even Bordeaux. There is wine tasting in many of the local vineyards and many are AOC. Gaillac has a market every Friday morning and it has a relaxed village-like atmosphere, and a hassle-free pace of life. You will enjoy watching the world go by at the many pavement cafés. The 10th Centuary Abbaye Saint Michel offers many concerts, fetes and Gaillic wine festival in August.

Lisle sur Tarn has a lake with minature boats and a chocolate museum!

 Cordes is only 25 mins away. This is a breathtaking medieval hilltop bastide village.
