About this property
Calm, cozy, and surrounded by nature, with a private pool
Pretty 18th century house, full of charm and completely renovated, integrated into the small hamlet of Vindrac, it is located in a quiet area, opposite the church. Located 4km from Cordes sur Ciel, it is ideally located to combine tourism, with local shops, and nature with walking or cycling. The house is vast, 160 square metres, with the alignment kitchen, dining room and living room with a very comfortable sofa installed in front of the fireplace, ideal for reading with a good tea. The 3 bedrooms are upstairs with 2 bathrooms and 3 toilets (one on the ground floor). The garden with its swimming pool (with restoration of the pool this spring 2022), its shrubs and trees is a real pleasure to rest, read or listen to the birds. Vindrac is a very nice little hamlet dating from the Middle Ages with its magnificent church. The house "in front of the church" is in the heart of it! Local shops can be found in the village of Les Cabannes (2km) and Cordes-sur-Ciel (4km). In Cabannes, there is the Primfrais supermarket, open widely and very well stocked, which offers bread and pastries. A small market with vegetable/fruit/fish/cheese/florist/honey/bread takes place every Wednesday morning. (free parking in Les Cabannes). In Cordes-sur-Ciel, there are 2 bakeries, 2 small supermarkets, 1 organic supermarket, 1 pharmacy, other shops and many shops. The market is much bigger than in Cabannes, it's on Saturday mornings. (Be careful there is paid parking in Cordes sur Ciel, but it's very easy to go up or on foot to Cordes from Les Cabannes) There is a very nice market in Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val on Sunday mornings (about 25min by car). Saint Antonin Noble Val also offers some sports activities such as kayaking on the Aveyron, paragliding, caving, etc ... Cabannes and Cordes-sur-Ciel are easily accessible on foot with superb paths (indicated on maps at home "in front of the church" or by bike, rentable in Cordes sur ciel, including electric ones, it is very appreciable in this "Tuscan" corner of the Tarn). The beautiful city of Albi is 30 minutes away by car, don't miss to visit the cathedral, the garden and get lost in the small Italian-looking streets. Gaillac and its surroundings offer many wine estates to visit. This region of Cocagne, also known as the little French Tuscany, will surprise and delight you. Near the house "in front of the church", there are many hiking trails or short walks or bike rides. You can also easily ride donkeys or horses... The medieval festivals take place around the 14th of July in Cordes-sur-Ciel. The tourist office is very dynamic, the hosts very friendly, without a doubt they will be able to answer all your questions! Also to be discovered 20 minutes away by car are the villages of Najac (superb medieval castle to visit) and Laguépie (which offers nice swimming spots on the Viaur - one of which is supervised with a very fun inflatable device).
Toulouse is a 1-hour drive away, its airport is connected by shuttle to the main Toulouse-Matabiau station. There is a train station in Cordes-Vindrac (which is 1km from the house), the departmental bus 702 then serves Vindrac in the quarter of an hour. There are 4 trains a day from Toulouse. Then there is a train station in Gaillac or Albi (the departmental bus 702 connects Albi to Vindrac).
Do not hesitate to contact me if you would like more information! All this information, and much more, will be on the welcome book at home!

Check-in really easy. House presented to a high standard; the kitchen is extremely well equipped and you will want for nothing to enjoy and cater for yourselves. Pool was ok for a while until it turned a little green. Generally a peaceful area though there is a resident family living next door that we were aware of. A great location for exploring the local area.
Beautiful property with great cycling in the locality
We had a fab family holiday in the Tarn. The property was very well maintained inside and out and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need.
Elsa was very responsive and all correspondence was quick and efficient. She very kindly offered to send us our sun hats that we left behind in our hasty departure!
We took our own bikes and enjoyed cycling in the mornings from a number of local villages/towns within 20-30 mins of the house (helped by Komoot app). We also used our paddle boards around Laguépie. The afternoons were mostly spent by the pool, which was very clean and a good size.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. It’s a great location to explore and a wonderful house.
The property is in an area of France which offers a great deal to see and do. The house is spacious and has a lovely outdoor seating area which we used each evening.
Lovely house in an amazing area of France.The swimming pool and the charm and amenities of the house are outstanding.There are countless short drives (30 min) that'll take you to the most charming villages with breathtaking views, great food and lovely wines.
We had an 11 night family holiday in this lovely house located a few kms from Cordes but in a very tranquil and peaceful location in a small village.
The house is beautifully and sympathetically restored with a lot of character . It also has all the necessary mod cons for a family stay and everything worked really well. There is no air con but with the thick stone walls and wood shutters the house stays nice and cool inside as long as you remember to keep the shutters shut !
The garden and pool area were particularly lovely. The house faces the village church which you can see from the bedroom windows. Very pretty ! We particularly enjoyed dining outside in the evening under the covered terrace. Worked really well being a few steps from the large and very well equipped kitchen .
The location of the house is ideal for visiting places of interest in the region including Cordes, Albi, St Antoine de Nobal Val . We particularly enjoyed Narjac and also managed a trip up to the Lot valley. Favourite activity was kayaking on both the Aveyron and the Cele, the latter being in the Lot Valley.
The host Elsa was excellent to deal with throughout , very prompt to come back with any questions we had.
We would not hesitate recommending booking this host and house for a holiday in the Tarn.

Sehr schönes, gepflegtes Haus. Sehr ruhig.
Ich mir hätte gerne eine TEL.Nr oder Emailadresse der Besitzerin gewünscht.
We hadden een topweek in dit huis: gezelligheid ten top, uitstekende communicatie met de eigenaar, een prachtige villa en genoeg activiteiten in de buurt die de moeite waardde zijn om te verkennen.
Très belle demeure calme pour visiter la très belle région
Demeure avec piscine bien décorée et équipée au centre d’une très belle région Point de départ idéal pour les visites des très beaux villages de la région
Lovely house and pool in a quiet but well connected area. House was well equipped with numerous outdoor seating areas. We had a fab couple of weeks here.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La maison est restée bien fraîche malgré les grandes chaleurs. La cuisine est très bien équipée. Le tout au calme et proche des plus beaux sites touristiques. Merci pour les petites attentions qui nous attendaient à notre arrivée. Un petit point négatif pour la propreté de la piscine et ses transats.
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette tres belle maison en pierre , son jardin et sa piscine sécurisée parfaite avec des enfants en bas âge, nous recommandons vivement.
Cadre enchanteur, maison douillette et fonctionnelle, très joliment rénovée et décorée, commerces, découvertes et activités à proximité. On reviendra !
Deux semaines de vacances magnifiques dans cette maison charmante, reposante et très bien équipée.
La maison est agencée avec beaucoup de goût et offre de nombreux espaces pour des moments de détente. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié le grand jardin fleuri, la terrasse pour les moments conviviaux et la belle piscine.
Merci à notre hôtesse Elsa pour les suggestions de randonnées (avec des cartes détaillées) et les nombreux livres mis à disposition.
La maison est idéalement située : au calme et à proximité de Cordes-sur-Ciel. C’est un point de départ parfait pour partir à la découverte de la région (petits villages pittoresques, canoë dans les gorges de l’Aveyron, Albi et sa cathédrale…).
Merci à Elsa pour l’accueil et les délicates attentions à notre arrivée.
Séjour très agréable, la maison joliment rénovée correspond tout à fait à la description et aux photos. Le jardin est absolument charmant et il y a toujours un coin d'ombre quelle que soit l'heure de la journée; l'éclairage nocturne permet de passer les soirées à l'extérieur.
Le tout au grand calme, dans un minuscule village. Et à proximité de nombreux sites touristiques (Cordes, Albi, ...)
Très agréable villa, comfortable et bien équipée. Bel environnement, à proximité d'une multitude de magnifiques endroits à visiter. Beau jardin fleuri et espaces extérieurs bien conçus pour déjeuner ou diner
