Oct 2, 2017 #### A perfect holiday This cottage is a wonderful home and our hosts were wonderful too. They had thought of everything that guests might need for their comfort and they were so helpful and kind. The cottage is set in the most peaceful location we have ever visited with no noise or light pollution so the perfect place for relaxation and refreshment. The area is surrounded by beautiful countryside and pretty villages and all within easy reach. Albi is a very interesting city which we are always ready to revisit and we spent a happy day there. And, of course, we must mention the excellent Gaillac wines of which we sampled quite a few, and the lovely cheese, bread and fruit. We couldn't have asked for more and we would be very happy to come here again. (We would award more stars if we could!) Angela and Peter Warr (Canterbury, UK) ##### Angela W.
