This nature house is literally on the border of the Gers and the Haute Garronne. It is the old "front house" of a Gascony style farmhouse and has room for 5 guests. The farm stands 2.5 kilometers from the village of Empeaux almost at the end of a dead-end road. Around the farm, in the adjacent valleys, are the fields of our neighbor whom you can occasionally see working his land. The farm has a large garden, a terrace and a swimming pool (shared with the owners who live in the part). In the farmhouse you will find a living room with fireplace, a kitchen with dining table and upstairs a bedroom with double bed and a few steps higher a loft room with three beds, the total area is 82 square meters.
Nature and surroundings
The owners bought this farm to enjoy both the nature around us and the big city. The Gers is one of the most rural parts of France, a rolling landscape with small towns and villages. Empeaux is located between the market towns of L'Isle Jourdain, St-Lys and Samatan. You are in the middle of the grains and sunflowers and can enjoy walking and also cycling on the quiet little roads between the villages; but a bit up and down! Around the farm you see occasionally some deer, badgers or a wild boar. At night the starry sky is worth staying up once. But you are also within 35 minutes in the heart of Toulouse, 'la ville rose', a beautiful city on the Garonne River. You'll find a beautiful old city center and a host of museums, parks and entertainment options. Toulouse is the heart of the European aerospace industry and there is the possibility to visit the new aviation museum 'Aerosopia', the final assembly of the iconic Airbus A380 or the space museum Cité de L'espace. Some further day trips are of course also possible. For example a mountain hike in the Pyrenees (1.5 hours), or skiing in winter... Alternatively a visit to the medieval city of Carcassonne (1.5 hours) or Albi and Cordes sur Ciel (about 1.25 hours). The Mediterranean Sea is about 2 hours away and the Gers and further surroundings offer the possibility to visit good wine regions.

Our experience was worth a 9
Onze ervaring was een 9 waard
Nature, peace & environment:It was a wonderful stay. The house was "homey" and that made you feel good, all the basic contemporary amenities were there and you felt right at home. The owners of the house also immediately made you feel welcome. Due to its location in a cul-de-sac, peace and quiet was assured. For us what the ideal ago with Toulouse nearby (great to do by train!), nice hiking trails within an acceptable radius and the high peaks of the Pyrenees at 1h45 drive assured us of a more than enjoyable vacation. The pool was best to use even in the second half of September for a few laps. (19- 20°C).
Het was een heerlijk verblijf. Het huis was 'huiselijk' ingericht en dat gaf een goed gevoel, alle hedendaagse basisvoorzieningen waren aanwezig en je voelde je er meteen thuis. De eigenaars van het huis gaven je ook meteen een welkom gevoel. Door de ligging in een doodlopende straat was rust en stilte verzekerd. Voor ons wat het ideaal geleden met Toulouse in de buurt (heerlijk met de trein te doen!), leuke wandelroutes binnen een aanvaardbare straal en de hoge pieken van de Pyreneeën op 1u45 rijden verzekerden ons van een meer dan aangename vakantie. Het zwembad was zelfs in de tweede helft van september best te gebruiken voor een paar baantjes. (19- 20°C).

Heel leuke, vriendelijke en toegankelijke eigenaars. De gite heeft een recente verbouwing achter de rug en is met smaak en respect voor de Franse eigenheid ingericht. Er zijn voldoende activiteiten mogelijk in de nabije omgeving en het zwembad is steeds ter beschikking
Nature, peace & environment:Zeer rustige omgeving in een doodlopend straatje met veel mogelijkheden om te wandelen in de omgeving.
