1 unit · Glamping · Laparrouquial, OccitanieCome and stay in your own private camp site! Your luxury 6 metre bell tent sits in its own secluded field with a lovely view onto a rolling meadow. The valley is home to a wide variety of birds and butterflies, and deer come to drink at the spring in the meadow. Night skies are free of pollution, perfect for stargazing. It is a very tranquil special place, ideal for those wanting to get away from it all and be immersed in nature, and where children can explore freely. There is an 11-metre swimming pool at our home for you to enjoy, again with lovely views!
Your comfortably furnished bell tent has a double and two or three single beds as required, made up with crisp linens and blankets for cooler nights. A cot is also available. Solar lighting and floor cushions create a cosy atmosphere, and there are board games for kids. A mosquito net runs all around the tent to allow for ventilation and to keep bugs out. Next to the tent is a charming outdoor kitchen, complete with bottle gas stove and utensils for cooking, and a wooden picnic table for dining. A barbeque and fridge are also available at the camping station, just three minutes’ walk down the lane. Here you will find your private bathroom, complete with towels and toiletries. There is also a sink for washing up with a lovely view over the meadow.
There are good walks from the campsite and really spectacular walking a bit further afield in the Averyon Gorge. Bike hire and horse riding are available nearby. In Laguepie, just 10 minutes drive, there is surveilled river swimming, and lively restaurants and bars for dining. Half an hour's drive away is the pretty town of St Antonin, with kayaking down the Averyron Gorge, as well as a fantastic Sunday market.
The area is rich in culture with the medieval town of Cordes-sur-Ciel just 10 minutes drive, and the city of Albi with its spectacular cathedral, a Unesco site, just 40 mins away. Albi is also home to the Toulouse Lautrec Museum, good restaurants and shopping.
The Gaillac vineyards are a short drive and offer wine tastings and evening concerts. Summer is the time for festivals here, and there is always some entertainment taking place in one of the nearby villages.
The bell tent is available June, July and August for a minimum of 2 nights.
