Unique property rentals in the South of France - Farmhouses and Villas

This is a spacious, property flled with natural light and very comfortably accomodating 12 people in 6 large bedrooms; 3 doubles and 3 twins and 4 bathrooms.

The whole property is enjoying the benefit of a complete 'makeover' with most rooms newly decorated and furnished. 

The large kitchen is fully equipped with Bosch appliances and the house is newly furnished throughout with French antique and modern furnishings. The property is centrally heated for all-year-round use.

The position of this property is a particularly strong feature, so if you are looking for a property with terrific views then Couxe would be hard to beat.

THE HOUSE

Couxe is somewhat special, the setting and views certainly are. The light, bright modern interior of this property offers a difference from the more usual rustic house interiors normally found in homes in this area.

This is a traditional stone farmhouse set on high ground amongst woods and vineyards. The house and pool terrace have stunning views down and across the valley . The pool is large (14m x 6m) with L-shaped Roman steps giving a total width of 8 meters. There is a large pool terrace that is very secluded. If required, pool heating is available (this is at an additional cost)

There are 10 acres of lawns and private woods to enjoy.

On the ground floor is a huge bright and airy sitting-room with a comfortable seating area and a separate TV area (both satellite and local) - French doors open to the front of the house.

The large well equipped kitchen overlooks the pool and there is a huge covered eating area just outside--this is a particularly good feature of this property.

The spacious dining room is adjacent to the kitchen and has a glorious open fireplace.

One large twin bedroom is located on the ground floor. Next to the bedroom is a shower-room and separate WC.

The first floor has 5 further bedrooms. The master double bedroom is newly furnished with a stunning bamboo king size bed and it has an enormous en-suite bathroom with bath and separate double shower.

The two bedrooms to the rear of the property are one double and one twin. There is one further shower room & WC for these two bedrooms.

Two additional bedrooms, one double and one twin, are located to the front of the house with one further full bathroom to service them.

The interior feel of the property is very light and clean.

It is under a day's drive from the Channel Ports or about 1 hour from Toulouse International airport (now many flights a day from the UK including an Easyjet service from Gatwick). Budget flight airports Carcassonne and Rodez are not far away. On a wider perspective, the location is central to the Pyrénees, the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts all of which make for an interesting day away.

The property itself is situated within the Gaillac appellation wine region, about 10 kilometres from the town of Gaillac where you will find all shops, bars and restaurants plus a huge Leclerc Supermarket.

The nearest village/small town is Cahuzac sur Vere with a small supermarket, butcher/baker, bar & Auberge and Cordes which is about a ten minute drive. Cordes is not only one of the best known medieval "bastide" villages in France will also serve as your centre for shopping and restaurants (one of which has a coveted Michelin rosette)

This is an ideal base for exploring this ancient and historic region. Within a 25 kilometre radius are several other fascinating medieval 'bastide' villages. Also about 20 kilometres away is the ancient city of Albi with its famous fortified cathedral and renowned Toulouse Lautrec museum (housing one of the most comprehensive collection of the artist's works).

For the energetic, leisure and sporting facilities to be found locally include tennis, canoeing, rock climbing and fishing. There are 2 excellent equestrian centres in the area and the golf courses at Albi is reputedly first-rate and particularly welcoming to visitors. There is major new action/activity 'Cap Decouverte' just under an hour's drive away at Carmaux - a must for kids of all ages!
