The Midi-Pyrenees / Haute-Garonne region
The area enjoys mild winters and hot summers. September to mid December are wonderful months to be here, beautiful clear blue sky days and lighter evenings.
Toulouse is renouwned for its long aeronautical history and is now home to the French space industry. The 'Cite de l' Espace', where interactive exhibits include a real Arianne roquet and a life-size model of the international space station is a continually growing tourist attraction that draws people from all over the world.
Our region is dotted with lovely mediaval towns and villages, many of which were once used as stop-over points by pilgrims on their way to Santiago de compostela.
We are just north of the Pyrenees mountains and only a couple of hours away from Andorra where you can enjoy tax free shopping. If you would rather relax, just visit one of the region's warm healing springs or natural spa's.
Toulouse / Muret area
Toulouse is the last major French city before reaching Spain, therefore it has the 'Spanish' feel to it. We are situated 30 minutes away from the town in the country side, but there are many small villages surrounding us and most of all Muret, which is a 'sous prefercture' which basically means that it is a very well kept smaller town. In Muret , (this means 'small wall' in old French) there are fabulous markets and local entertainments, especially at this time of year, there are many fetes, wine exhibitions where you can find regional market products; flower exibitions, theme festivals and children fetes such as the medeival fete. Villages in this area have 'vide grenier' week ends which are antique markets and always a good place to find the odd bargain! Muret, which is only ten minutes away, has a fantastic watersports' complex, with waterslides and water games for children of all ages; The park is open until mid September. However indoor pools, jacuzzi and steam baths remain open all year round. You may have access to all these premices for a small fee of 4 Euros (£2.50 per adult). There is a horse riding club near by, cycling or walking tours available. We are only an hour away from Andorra and the Pyrennees for those who wish to explore the area; Karting activities, mountain bike and canooing other possible things to to.
How to get there
Fly to Toulouse or Carcassonne from either Gatwick (Easyjet and sometimes British airways cheap deals) or Stanstead (Ryanair), 'The Barn House' is 30mn away by car. We are able to collect you from airport and hire you a modest car to tour around this beautiful area besides the Pyrenees. You can always choose to cycle or even walk as there are many villages, rivers and lakes to visit. Local buses and taxis run regularly if you chose to go via public transport.
