Our beautiful French self catering gite for rent close to Carcassonne, Albi and Toulouse with a large swimming pool. Great for families.
La Bastide is a 17th Century farmhouse set in 4.5 hectares of meadows and maquis in the hills of Pays de Cocagne in the Tarn, an unspoiled area of Southern France which lies between Toulouse, Carcassonne and Albi, making it very convenient for fly-drive holiday makers looking for self-catering accomodation.
Ian and Jos Bryant have arranged La Bastide as three self-catering gites. The Farmhouse, The Grange and The Cottage. These can be rented individually, or the Farmhouse gite and Grange gite linked together to form one large gite, or rent all three gîtes, when the Cottage gite provides a tranquil refuge for grandparents (70m away from the farmhouse) when booking the whole rental property for a large family group. Also to make our Tarn self-catering rentals as affordable for couples as families, we are offering lower rates for 2's in our Tarn Farmhouse gite and Grange gite.
Why choose the Tarn? The Tarn is where the Mediterranean and Atlantic climates meet. Its equitable climate is drier than the Dordogne and not as fiercely hot as Provence. You will find far fewer English residents here than in the Dordogne. Stay in a Tarn gite and you’ll be living in a traditional corner of the South of France.

What to expect from our Gite rental We live on the edge of the property out of your way but on hand when you need us. Experienced gite renters recognise the advantage of booking with nearby owners who can deal with late arrivals, advise on doctors restaurants local services and activities, and respond promptly to any problems. We have a Broadband Internet connection and guests can access this via WiFi.
We provide a free ‘Welcome Pack’ of tea, coffee, milk, sugar, bread, jam, butter, eggs ,biscuits, condiments, water, beer and wine. We will do a shop for guests expecting to arrive after the supermarkets have closed or Jos can prepare a three course supper and leave it in your gite.
We know that even during self-catering holidays people wish they did not have to cook dinner every night, yet they don't always want to go out to restaurants, especially after a hot day by the pool. Jos had a rosette and red star from the AA at our last hotel in England and knows what good fresh food should taste like.
