The Experience

It’s peaceful here, deep in the countryside beside the 17th-century château, built by le Seigneur de Faudoas and with sweeping views over fields and the snow-capped mountains. Sitting on the terrace for a morning cup of tea or a sundowner will be uplifting. A well thought-out kitchen, large and light, is a grand space for all to sit and chat or help with the cooking and you’ll find basics in the cupboards plus a welcome hamper of local food and wine.

Bedrooms (one downstairs with its own shower room and doors to the terrace) are calm and uncluttered; bathrooms have mood lighting, tiptop showers and underheated cosy stone floors. Up the chunky oak staircase is a huge L-shaped living area with warm brickwork, exposed A-beams and plenty of windows for that view. Outside you’ll find a small lawned area and you have the use of the owners’ swimming pool.

Spend lazy days indoors, head off for long walks, relish the tranquillity.

Reviews

The accommodation was stunning, really beautifully done and with lovely views across the countryside. Peaceful and quiet location and the hosts were very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed the local towns and villages, very relaxed area and not far from Toulouse. Slept like a log and comfty bed. We'll be back again! Thank you again.

We had a fantastic stay at Gite du Rossignol. The Gite is really tastefully done throughout using beautiful natural materials, tactile stone flooring, wooden doors and comfortable beds. The handcrafted spiral staircase is amazing and an object of real craftsmanship! The Gite is very well equipped with no expense spared and Mark and Becky the perfect hosts. It's a wonderful area of France with the Pyrenees in striking distance and local towns giving a real taste of authentic French life. The large and spacious grounds of the Chateau are sublime with amazing views. We'll definitely be back!

Ben, Totnes

Maximising the fabulous view together with keeping original design and brickwork, it's a very grown up home that guests seeking luxury + peace will appreciate. I adore the huge and tranquil upstairs living area that could also be suitable for yoga or small courses and of course the real design 'wow' factor is the amazing staircase. I love it!

Amanda, Sawday's Inspector

The Jamiesons are wonderful hosts, they made sure we felt at home and pampered. The surrenders of the Chateau are spectacular in sunrise or sunset! The Chateau has lots of history behind and its a peaceful place where to regroup, enjoy the nature, have walks around, It is conveniently located 15 minutes drive to several picturesque villages following the sunflowers fields, we indulged in their farmers market and art lessons. The villagers were so welcoming! I don’t speak French, they will go far and beyond to communicate with my daughter and I. Will definitely return it is a magical place!

Location

The neighbourhood

Cadours, famous for its purple garlic, is a 10-minute drive for shops; Beaumont-de-Lomagne, also famous for its garlic, has some good restaurants. The Michelin-rated Chateau de Drudas is perfect for special occasions and is just 12 minutes further in the car, taking you through the village of Cox, well renowned for its pottery (it even has a dedicated museum). Toulouse Airport is only 45 minutes away.

Local points of interest from Rebekah Jamieson

  • We live in a rural environment and the Gite is perfect for cyclists and walkers, photographers and those that love to paint. But equally peaceful for those who just want to soak in the ever changing scenery - especially the glorious sunflowers in season.
  • COX has a pottery museum and CADOURS is famous for its purple garlic as well as Chateau Lareole.The melons of Lectoure are amazing when in season and the town has a fascinating centre including the Brocante shops in la vieille hôpital
  • Dining options here require a car, but from the delicate patisseries of Beaumont de Lomagne via the Pizzerias of Cox & Cadours to the Michelin rated Chateau de Drudas there is always something to suit your palate and budget.
  • Once surrounded by vineyards, the area is now agricultural but the Caves de Saint Sardos are well worth a visit. An hour west of the Gite lies the Armagnac region, Pousse Rapier and the wines of Saint Mont
  • Water Sports and lake bathing are plentiful - St Criq, Beaumont de Lomagne and Saint Clar to name just a few options. A day trip to the beaches near Narbonne or a stroll down the Canal du Midi brings in a fascinating change of scenery.
  • Under an hour away are the amazing Capitale in Toulouse and the Cathedral in Auch, or the Foie Gras of the Gers. It is also a straight run to Pic du Midi in the Pyrenees (for skiing, hiking or the observatory).

Rebekah (who used to be a property agent in Abu Dhabi) and Mark (a civil engineer)and their two daughters live in the château and are on hand if you need anything. They are warm, outgoing and well-travelled. They have four Labradors, four cats and quite a few chickens who you are welcome to say hello to.
