We really loved our time visiting Albi. Part of that is due to the beautiful city itself, and part is due to the tranquil taste of country life that Christian and Isabelle have managed to maintain at this property, virtually in the shadow of the cathedral. The hosts, who live in another house on the property, are very friendly and hospitable. We had only been in the house a few minutes when they knocked on the door with a basket of beautiful tomatoes (delicious!) and grapes from their garden. They also had us to dinner one evening, as well as for drinks on another evening when they had some English-speaking friends over. The house itself is comfortable and attractive. I will say that the kitchen furnishings were a little more basic than many we encounter, but there was a coffee maker and a toaster, so we were good! We really appreciated that they offered us a late checkout time. That allowed us to enjoy one more morning of coffee on the little dock and a relaxed breakfast that included the last of the tomatoes, before getting everything into the car and putting the house in order.

The house is situated on the site of an old legume and salad farm and the hosts still cultivate all types of fruit and veg which is fascinating. They also have sheep and chickens on the property. The property is ideally located on the Tarn river just up stream from Albi old town which can be seen from the river deck. Only a ten minute walk into town. We loved our stay as we walked everywhere in Albi as well as exploring the perched villages and Riverside towns. Swimming was chilly in May. Try Trebas for a river swim or one of the lakes nearby. The hosts are lovely, very generous with their produce and local knowledge. He was born on the property and our house used to be his grandfather's. Such a lovely place to visit for site seeing and relaxing.

This was one of the best places we have stayed in all our travels. Isabelle and Christian were the perfect hosts. They were very kind and made our experience memorable. The house is located within easy walking distance of the town center, and Albi is a delightful community. We can’t wait to go back !

SEJOUR A ALBI
Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable dans cette maison, ancienne fermette maraîchère. C'est exceptionnel, la campagne à la ville, au bord du Tarn (ponton pour l'apéro, la pêche et baignages), avec vue sur la basilique Sainte Cécile et les ponts. Maison idéale pour 6 personnes, grande terrasse et parking privé et sécurisé. Ceci pour la description des lieux quant l'accueil, c'est le top. Isabelle et son mari Christian (sans oublier Boris, le fils) ont été charmants ne sachant que faire pour rendre notre séjour agréable (fruits, légumes de leur grand jardin), et diner pour clôturer ces bons moments; nous ne sommes pas là de les oublier et les en remercions encore. Certainement à refaire.,

We stayed just over a week and were pleased that we did. The house works well and could accommodate quite a few more than just us. The internet is a little slow, but then the property is in regional France and not a big main city. Albi is a delightful city to visit and though you can walk in from the gite, there is street parking just before the bridge or plenty of paid parking in the old area.
