| On our property, La Typerenda we built two gîtes; Le Papillon a converted stone gîte and Les Hirondelles, a small, recently build gîte, situated next to the pool. Both gîtes have their own private terrace with barbecue. La Typerenda has southerly aspect and stands in 2 hectares of partly wooded grounds with fine panoramic views of the adjacent valley of the river Serene. Areas around have been planted with a variety of shrubs and trees like peach, nectarine, cherry, prune, kiwi, fig and walnuts.
The covered pool can be used the whole year. The pool measures 8.0m x 4.0m. The depth of the pool is 1.50m at the deep end reducing to 0.9m at the shallow end. The pool's purification system is based on biguanide rather than chlorine so the water is very pleasant to swim in and has none of the unpleasantness associated with chemical based treatment systems.
Table tennis facilities, dart and a boulodrome are provided. The secluded paved terraces around the gites allow the climate to be enjoyed in private. Your own stone barbecue on your private terrace adds the final touch to ensure you have every opportunity to unwind in a relaxing environment. Or alternatively you can make use of the two mountain bikes that are supplied. Garden furniture, sunbeds and parasols are also available.

| Interesting, medieval towns in the area are Najac, Cordes, St. Antonin Noble Val and Albi. Albi is famous for its medieval centre, its cathedral and of course the Toulouse Lautrec Museum. The Gaillac wine region with its fine range of excellent wines is only a half-hours drive away. Our region is well known for its fine, interesting and affordable restaurants.
A wide selection of sporting facilities are available in the area. Canoes and kayaks can be hired in Laguepie and Najac. There is good fishing in the local river Aveyron, Viaur and Serene. Pony trekking centres are located nearby. The local countryside offers many opportunities for walkers and we provide comprehensive maps, GR 36 is nearby. The golf course at Albi is reputedly first rate and particularly welcoming visitors.
