The house
The house consists of two parts. You only rent the large flat downstairs . The owner lives upstairs in the off-season and is not present in the summer months.
The two living areas are completely separate, each with its own front door. So you are always alone with your travelling companions !
No one else comes to the end of the dead-end tarmac access road of about 200 metres
The ground-floor flat has an area of about 100 m². The entrance is downstairs on the terrace, where you can enjoy the sun and the panoramic view without any worries and in complete privacy. The terrace features a 4.10 x 4.10-metre pool, a covered garden table with chairs, a garden seat, sun loungers and parasols.
The living room is connected to a large open-plan kitchen, equipped with a kitchen island/dining table.
The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with one double bed. The 2nd bedroom has two single beds. In the hallway is a very spacious toilet, in which the washing machine is located. The flat has air conditioning.
All windows and the door to the terrace have electric shutters.
The living room is equipped with, among other things; a large sofa, two armchairs, coffee table, ottoman and a large TV. with Dutch channels, long low cabinet at the side with lamps.
The modern complete open kitchen is fully equipped, including an induction hob in the cooking island, microwave, oven, kettle, toaster, Nespresso coffee machine, fridge and freezer.
From the terrace downstairs, you can walk straight to the boules court and basketball "field". Here you can practice hand archery on a safe track in the woods.
All this is illuminated. The game materials are in the garden house. Next to it is the carport, where you can park your car out of the sun.

From the elevated house, you have stunning views of the surroundings.
Saix is located a few km. south-west of Castres, a medium-sized town with a cosy centre with many terraces, restaurants and shopping streets.
Close to Castres is Sidobre, a lake with huge blocks of granite, a very beautiful nature reserve, where one can do extensive hiking.
There is a large shopping centre a few kilometres away, on the road to Castres and also in the other direction, towards Toulouse, less than 10 kilometres away.
In the vicinity are many (un)known villages, towns, but also larger cities, with castles from the Middle Ages. Carcassone ( 65 km), is the most famous and the largest. Albi ( 41 km) is also worth a visit with its impressive cathedral and the museum of the painter Toulouse Lautrec. About 20 minutes past Albi and 50 minutes from Toulouse, there is Cordes-sur-ciel, known from the time of the Cathars, also centuries old, an absolute must!

Close to Toulouse (77 km) is the international airport with daily flights to the Netherlands.
The Mediterranean Sea is about an hour and a half away.

Reviews
Leo en Jeannette van Mourik from Buren,
Fijn verblijf in een prachtige omgeving. Fijne gastheren. De hitte (42 graden) was prima te houden met het lekkere zwembad en de goede airco's. Alle voorzieningen zijn aanwezig in zowel het huis als in de nabije omgeving. Thx
Arno loof from Terneuzen,
Het is een leuk huis met mooi uitzicht. Veel rust en ruimte! Heel bijzonder om elke dag de hertjes te zien op het veld. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. Het zwembad is heerlijk vooral, na een dagje weggeweest te zijn. In de buurt is er genoeg te zien. In de avond heerlijk buiten zitten en
kijken naar de sterrenhemel. De winkels zijn redelijk dicht in de buurt.
Het is een huis in een omgeving waar je heerlijk tot rust kan komen.Hennie en Mary from Oegstgeest,
We hadden vier heerlijke weken in dit huis dat van alle gemakken is voorzien. De rust en ruimte zijn geweldig, de mogelijkheden in en om het huis eindeloos. Je hoeft het terrein niet af om te wandelen, badmintonnen, luieren, vogels kijken of spartelen in het zwembad. We hebben er van genoten!
Restaurants, food & wine
There are numerous restaurants in the area, where you can enjoy the excellent local wines.

Activities
Just 2500 m away is a large recreational lake; Base de Loisirs; www.communautesoragout.fr .
Here you can do many outdoor sports such as surfing, sailing, pedal boats, canoeing, horse riding, volleyball and fishing etc.
Furthermore, you can also go mountain biking and hiking here. There is also a BMX track.
Furthermore, there are many playgrounds for small children. There is an area for barbecues and picnics.
All kinds of sports are taught. There is plenty of parking space, lots of sanitary facilities and first aid.
In summer, there is a lot of entertainment, including music, dancing, spectacles, boat trips on the river, etc. in Castres.
In the house there is a Dutch booklet for you with all the activities and sights here in the region.
I am still amazed at the countless possibilities for hiking, cycling, MTB / road cycling, canoeing, horse riding, water sports, etc., both for advanced and beginners, both on the flat and in the mountains, ( 800 metres difference in altitude).
There are places everywhere where you can rent all kinds of things.
There are 10 equestrian farms and more than 30 riding places for horse riding through the Tarn ( www.tarn-a-cheval.com).
There are lots of recreational areas with a great choice of water sports activities and there are also great beaches at these lakes.
For example Lac de Ferréol, towards Toulouse-Soual- next to Revel 17 km away. The dimensions of the lake are 1600x800 metres, with a 4.5 km hiking trail around it. There is plenty of beach and there are also lawns and woods around it. You can go pedal boating, surfing and catamaran sailing there. Sailboats can be driven straight into the water with trailers. The lake was created by making a 700-metre barrage (dam) in a small river a few hundred years ago. Its maximum depth is 30 m. It releases its water to the Canal du Midi.
For more information, I list some addresses; www.tourisme-tarn.com, www.syndicat-riviere-tarn.fr, www.balades-randonnees-tarn.com.

There are also 6 golf courses nearby and also for fishing there are many possibilities; www.pechetarn.fr.
