Cosy Retreat in Converted Bread Oven

Hidden away in the beautiful Valle de Gijou this cosy tiny house is the perfect escape ! Nestled in the Haut Languedoc Park between the Southern French town of Castres (40 minutes) and world heritage site of Albi (50 minutes).
The ancient bread oven building has been restored with care and respect, recycling and incorporating reclaimed materials where feasible. The bed is made from the old beams and recovered planking as are the window sills and table top.
Installed are two satellite televisions with Amazon Prime and Netflix. Be sure if a good nights sleep with the sprung and memory foam mattress combination and anti-allergy down effect duvet. The shower has a large 90cm cabin with Grohe thermostatic shower and a heated towel rail. If you are lucky enough to visit during the colder months you can enjoy the wood burning cooker.
The property is offered as self catering but anything up to full catering can be offered. Dietary requirements are not usually an issue. Breakfast 10€ pp Picnic lunch 24€ for 2 people, Lunch 20€ per person and Dinner 35€ pp with a complimentary glass of wine with each course.
