The cottage is located in a small hameau in idyllic countryside. It is south facing - as is the garden - and has plenty of light. The garden and terrace is a sheltered sun trap. The house is on a small, quiet, safe road. You can walk out of the gate and be in superb countryside for walking, cycling, etc, immediately. A 1km walk and you're at a country restaurant/bar with swimming pool for its customers (see photo).
Rodez airport (Ryanair) is 1 hour away, Toulouse is 1.5 hours away (Easyjet, BA, Flybe, BMiBaby, Air France, etc).

Places of Interest
Lots to do nearby. A short walk away (1km), there's a bar/restaurant with a good sized swimming pool, which customers can use during the summer season. Elsewhere for example, you can go canoeing on the River Averyron (canoes easily and cheaply hired nearby), cycling through forests and car-free tracks (bike hire in St Antonin) or road-biking through the surrounding hills and valleys. The region is a walker's paradise (beginning right outside your front gate which leads into pine and oak forests), horse riding (stables, lessons, etc, nearby), excellent fishing (holiday permits can be bought locally), swimming (apart from the nearby bar/restaurant there are open-air public pools in St Antonin and Caylus, as well as lakes with designated swimming areas, and clean river swimming nearby too), tennis (courts can be hired at good rates), and of course there is plenty of eating out in excellent restaurants. During the summer there are regularly village fetes with music, market stalls, fireworks, etc.
Of the nearby villages, St Antonin Noble Val is beautifully situated on the river against the dramatic white cliffs of the Gorges de l'Aveyron and has a well known Sunday morning market where you can buy local produce (arts, craft, and food), and has a number of bars and restaurants, canoeing, swimming pool, tennis, etc. The spectacular medieval, hilltop villages of Cordes sur Ciel and Najac are magnificent sights and great places to view the surrounding countryside. Elegant Albi has charming pedestrianised shopping avenues leading to the cathedral and Toulouse Lautrec museum with its views over the river Tarn, Parisot (with lake and excellent carp fishing), Caylus (also with lake for swimming, walking), Villefranche de Rouergue (cathedral, market, etc), Caussade (market, hat-making festival), Penne, etc, etc.
Rodez airport (Ryanair) is 1 hour away, Toulouse (Easyjet, Flybe, BMiBaby, BA, Air France, etc) is 1.5 hours.
