Two addresses for two guests, with a tub you share with nobody. One outdoors, facing the vines. The other indoors, within medieval stone walls.
The point
Searching for “a gîte with a hot tub in the Tarn” and searching for “a gîte with a private hot tub” are not the same thing. Many listings advertise a hot tub that is shared: with other guests, with the owners, or by time slot. You arrive, and the tub is taken.
At both of our addresses, the tub is yours for the whole stay, with no slots to book and no neighbours. It's the only promise that matters when that's what you've come for.
That leaves one real question nobody talks about: indoors or outdoors? We have both, and they don't suit the same mood.
Outdoors
A 25 m² cottage for two, set in the heart of a 3-hectare estate, between woods and the vines of the Gaillac wine country. The hot tub (jacuzzi) is installed under a covered terrace: enjoy it in the rain or in the sun, in the depths of winter or in August.
The temperature is adjustable: piping hot for starry evenings, cooled down in summer to unwind after a day of wine tasting. Bathrobes, bed linen and bath towels are provided — you put down your bags, and that's it.
All around: a private terrace looking onto the woods, birdsong at breakfast, fibre broadband for those who stay on for a day of remote working. Gaillac is 5 minutes away, Cordes-sur-Ciel 20, Albi 30, the A68 motorway 10.
Indoors
This is the one that stands apart: a private indoor spa, in a dedicated room, inside an 80 m² medieval loft at the foot of the Romanesque church of Castelnau-de-Montmiral, one of France's "Plus Beaux Villages".
Being indoors changes everything, especially in summer. An outdoor hot tub in the middle of July in the Tarn is often too hot to be pleasant before 10 pm. Here, the room is sheltered from the sun — and the spa is warm the moment you arrive, with nothing to switch on. The temperature can be set to your liking: gentler in summer, piping hot in winter.
The building dates from 1300: exposed local stone, old beams, a direct view of the Romanesque church from the living room. The loft has one bedroom, a lounge, a fitted kitchen and a bathroom; the spa has a room of its own.

Both sleep two. Here is how our guests usually decide:
Before you book
Both of our addresses are non-smoking and do not accept pets. Quiet is requested from 10 pm to 9 am — that's what keeps the place special for everyone.
End-of-stay cleaning is not included, and we charge no cleaning fee: in return, we ask you to leave the accommodation clean and tidy. It's our way of keeping prices fair.
Finally, we live a few minutes away: available if you need us, invisible if you prefer complete privacy.
