The house
Romantic cottage with private garden on a hillside in the south of France.
The cottage is located on the Domaine Puech Malou, in the department of Tarn, in the south of Occitanie, formerly Languedoc-Roussillon and Midi-Pyrénées.
Puech means hill in Occitan and Malou is an old apple variety). The estate dates from around 1800 and is situated on a sunny hillside at an altitude of 525 metres, in the middle of the countryside. It is part of the idyllic hamlet of Puech Malou, which belongs to the neighbouring commune of Teillet. Albi is less than 30 minutes away and Toulouse an hour. On a clear day, the peaks of the Pyrenees can be seen from the property.
The cottage can accommodate two people. There is a fully equipped kitchen, a very comfortable sitting area and a dining area. In early spring and late summer, the wood-burning stove ensures a pleasant temperature. From the living room you have access to a beautiful bedroom with comfortable beds with box springs. From the bedroom there is access to the bathroom with shower, washbasin and toilet.
During your stay, you can enjoy a beautiful garden with flowers and trees of about 1000 m2. There are hydrangeas and cedars that provide shade on hot days. The cottage has a private terrace with teak furniture where you can enjoy your meals or simply admire the view of the hilly landscape in peace and quiet. Here the sunsets are spectacular and there are wonderful starry skies.
In short, all the ingredients are there for a well-deserved holiday for two or simply alone, to recharge your batteries away from it all.
The holiday home "de Cottage" has been awarded 3 *** stars by the Comité Départemental du Tourisme du Tarn, category of Meublés de Tourisme.

The property is located in the Tarn, named after the river of the same name. The Tarn has a mild climate influenced by both the Atlantic and the Mediterranean.
The region is rich in nature, culture and history. The landscapes are very varied: from low rolling plains to beautiful mountains. This great diversity of landscapes, beautiful nature, a rich architectural and cultural heritage, traditional riches and an ancient history give the Tarn a varied local colour and make it a privileged holiday destination.
The Tarn is home to a wide variety of landscapes and spectacular nature: from the mountains of the Monts de Lacaune and the Montagne Noire to the granite cliffs of the Sidobre, the vineyards of Gaillac and the charming Pays de Cocagne! You will also discover beautiful architectural sites such as the Bastides des Albigeoises and picturesque medieval villages such as Bruniquel, Puycelsi, Penne, Castelnau de Montmiral or Cordes sur Ciel. History buffs and even more beautiful French villages will be delighted to discover Lautrec, Ambialet, Lincou, Brousse le Château, St. Iziare, Coupiac and Plaisance. For those who don't think all this is enough, the castles, ruins and caves of the Cathars are within easy reach. For day trips, be sure to visit the medieval city of Carcassonne, Rodez with its Gothic cathedral, Millau with its masterful viaduct or Toulouse with its Renaissance palaces.
Albi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is situated on the river Tarn. The old centre of the episcopal city around the imposing Sainte Cécile cathedral consists of narrow streets with numerous shops and restaurants. The Palais de la Berbie now houses the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum and can be counted among the great contemporary museums of France. Albi is a charming city in southwest France with an infectious Mediterranean touch where you will certainly enjoy the typical art of living.

Judith & Jeroen from Landgraaf,
Wauw! Chapeau
Clement tu es formidable :-))
Domaine Puech Malou heeft alles wat een vakantie voor ons behoort te hebben. Zeer mooi en compleet vakantiehuis. Op de heuveltop niets dan rust. Dorpjes op 10 min en stadjes op nog geen 30 min rijden. Albi en Carcassonne waren favoriet.
We hebben genoten van de eerste tot de laatste seconde. Wij verbleven met onze vijf kinderen en drie honden. Niets was te veel. Bij aankomst had Clement heerlijk voor ons gekookt (aanrader!!). Ook al waren er een paar bewolkte/ regenachtige dagen bij, het maakt niet uit. Wij komen zeker nog eens terug! Dankjewel voor deze fijne week!Judith & Jeroen

Fien, Blaze & BettyTom Van Poucke from Moerkerke,
We zijn net terug van een schitterende vakantie in de vakantiehoeve. We hebben genoten van de natuur, rustige omgeving, de mooie vakantiewoning. De vakantie was super, ook het onthaal en de suggesties van Clément waren top. Zeker een aanrader voor iedereen die wilt genieten van mooie natuur in een rustige omgeving.
Nancy Van den Eynde from SCHERPENHEUVEL (SCHERPENHEUVEL-ZICHEM),
Voor het vierde jaar op rij weer genoten van deze magische plek.
Rust, ruimte en privacy wordt aangekondigd en wordt in de meeste brede zin van het woord waargemaakt.
Heerlijke Cottage voor 2 personen. Van alle gemakken voorzien van vaatwasser, combimagnetron tot en met een Senseo koffieapparaat.
De bedden nog beter dan thuis en opgemaakt bij aankomst, tot in de puntjes schoon en aan alle details gedacht.
Social distance wordt gerespecteerd en is hier geen moeite, absoluut corona proof.
Genoten van de kleurenpracht en stilte in de prive tuin en van het heerlijke terras. Een advies: de tips van Harry en Monique absoluut opvolgen en een must.
Van bezienswaardigheden tot en met de restaurant top 11, van wandeltochten tot en met de lokale bakker. Zelfs na 4 weken nog steeds niet uitgekeken maar wel heerlijk bij kunnen komen.
Harry en Monique bedankt voor het delen van jullie fijne plek en goede zorgen, we komen terug naar dit petit paradis.Comment from Clément Courmont
Verblijf in onze Cottage van 29 augustus tot 24 september 2020.
Dank jullie wel, fijn om te lezen dat jullie weer zo genoten hebben.
