Casa Guillarmou - Heated Pool & Spa - Splendid
Casa Guillarmou - Heated Swimming Pool 10 months/year, Spa & 6 hectares of nature
Nestled in the heart of the rolling countryside of Tarn, Casa Guillarmou is an invitation to escape in a setting that recalls the gentle hills of the Occitan Tuscany.
This stone house of character, entirely renovated with finesse and elegance, reveals itself like a jewel facing the medieval village of Castelnau-de-Montmiral, classified among the most beautiful sites of the territory.
Heated Swimming Pool & Well-being
The outdoor swimming pool is heated to a minimum of 28°C and open from 1st February to 30th November, to enjoy water pleasures over a very wide season.
â
It is secured by a pool shelter, and opens onto a large terrace fitted with garden furniture, dining table and gas plancha, with the undulating landscapes of the Little Tarnaise Tuscany as a backdrop.
â
To prolong moments of relaxation, a spa heated to 38°C is accessible all year round, ideal after a day of sightseeing or hiking.
â
The vast 6-hectare park offers multiple spots to recharge, while the ping-pong table and playground will delight the children.
â
Interior spaces
The authentic stone walls and warm woodwork create a soft harmony between tradition and modernity.
â
The large, light-filled volumes are air-conditioned for absolute comfort, and each room has been designed like a painting, blending noble furniture and a cocooning atmosphere.
â
The house can accommodate up to 10 people (including 8 adults) and is suitable for both a romantic getaway and family or friends' holidays.
On the ground floor, the fully equipped kitchen opens onto the terrace and swimming pool, the cathedral lounge with its wood-burning insert and 4K TV invites convivial evenings, and a bedroom with a king-size bed and sofa bed completes this level.
Upstairs, two large parental suites each have a 180x200 bed and their own private bathroom, ensuring privacy and comfort for all.
A mezzanine office area with very high-speed wifi allows you to work remotely in a privileged setting.
Around the house: nature, medieval villages & activities
Casa Guillarmou is located in the heart of the golden triangle of Albi â Gaillac â Cordes-sur-Ciel, surrounded by bastides and medieval villages such as Castelnau-de-Montmiral, Puycelsi, Bruniquel, Penne or Lisle-sur-Tarn, all renowned for their heritage and panoramas.
â
Numerous producers' markets, such as Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val or Lisle-sur-Tarn, allow you to discover local products and crafts all year round.
You can also enjoy leisure bases and outdoor activities: canoeing and kayaking from Saint-Antonin, horse riding, tree climbing, water sports, as well as golf, hot air ballooning, paragliding or microlight to discover the region from the sky.
Wine enthusiasts can explore the oldest vineyard in France, the Gaillac vineyard, and meet passionate winemakers during tastings.
Finally, beautiful day trips are possible to Albi (listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site), Toulouse or Carcassonne for a strong cultural immersion.

A Little Slice of Heaven
Our group of four adults immensely enjoyed our week-long stay at this gorgeous, spacious, quiet, well-equipped, and comfortable home. Communication with Stephane before and during the stay was excellent. He was so responsive and helpful.
We loved being only a few minutes away from Castenau-de-Montmiral and in easy driving distance from so many wonderful places to see, such as Albi (Cathedral!!!), Gaillac, Penne, Cordes-sur-Ciel, Bruniquel, and Puycelsi.
One member of our group needed to see a doctor for a minor eye infection and was able to be helped in under an hour (with no appointment) as there is a three-doctor practice in town. "We'll have to charge you." said the doctor. Of course! And only 26 Euros was better than the cost of such a visit in the U.S.!
The air conditioning found in 2 of the 3 bedrooms and the shared living spaces worked perfectly, even when temperatures soared close to 90F. The heated pool was a dream and the sunset views from the house were spectacular. This was our 11th trip to France, but our first to the Tarn area. We highly recommend Casa Guillarmou and this region of France.

Amazing property in Southwest French countryside
We loved our stay at Casa Guillermo. It was just like the pictures and more with sumptuous rooms and American kitchen in this old stone farm in the middle of beautiful countryside. Stephane and Geraldine had put some nice Christmas decorations for the season. We enjoyed the jacuzzi and star gazing. The village of Castelnau de Montmiral is literally 5 minutes away with a large pharmacy and a small grocer that has a lot of things including fresh bread. We cooked a lot at home and filled the fridge at the Leclerc in Gaillac, 15 minutes away. We loved the area and its medieval villages perched on a cliff! We also enjoyed the view and the propertyâs 3 small horses.

Gorgeous Property!
Such a lovely property with everything we needed. Great communication with the owners and care about our family and needs. Thank you!
Fantastic stay, beautiful house and surroundings, amazing sunsets, couldn't ask for more. It's a quieter area of southern France with less tourists, but that's what we were looking for, and still plenty to see. Wonderful hosts and an easy process throughout the booking and our stay, will return!

Wonderful Countryside
This property offers Privacy, large kitchen, horses to watch and feed, large yard, away from the city, beautiful countryside and rolling hills, large sizing spaces, decent sized pool, hot tub, any many other wonderful things. The owners are onsite, attached, and willing to assist with anything necessary. If you need to work via internet, that maybe the only issue youâll have, itâs cellular and a bit slow. Would definitely stay here again!!!
Modern, comfortable retreat in the perfect location
A wonderful home from home, for one or two couples. Beautifully furnished and luxurious fittings, this spacious gĂźte had everything we wanted. The secluded grounds are very peaceful and the views are breathtaking. We look forward to returning soon!

Wonderful 5 star villa in a beautiful spot
This villa is simply beautiful. Spacious, spotless and tastefully furnished. Comfy beds (we all slept wonderfully), huge, well-equipped kitchen complete with well-stocked wine fridge, icemaker (a big hit with the kids) and a beautifully furnished outdoor area where we spent most of our time. The pool was heated to 30 degrees and we loved relaxing in the hot tub looking out over the gorgeous landscape, complete with little owls and red deer. Stephane and Geraldine were lovely welcoming hosts, very warm and helpful. They live next door but you would not know they were there unless you need something. There are many beautiful medieval villages in the area. We visited a few, including the stunning Castelnau de Montmiral itself, which is a five minute drive away, but spent most of our time lazing at the house, it was such a great place to be! Highly recommended.

Wow!
Quiet, secluded with breathtaking views of unspoiled countryside yet five minutes from shops and restaurants in France's oldest Bastide and a host of other beautiful small towns and villages within half an hour.
Inside the property is as beautiful as outside with a thoughtful and interesting conversion; well-equipped throughout and finished to a high specification. Even better, the inside is air conditioned (when the temperature is hovering at 100F you REALLY appreciate it), the pool is heated and, sitting on a hill, there is usually a cool breeze as well as plenty of shade.
The only thing you need to bring are books and DVDs â being relatively new, the house hasn't had a chance to build up the usual collection of 'left-behinds'. Not that we spent much time indoors; evenings were spent watching the sun set and the stars wink out!
We have been coming to the Aquitaine for twenty years and this was the nicest property so far with very helpful yet unobtrusive hosts.

Super week with our young family.
We spent a week at the property. Stephane (the host) couldnât have been more helpful and kept in touch to guide us to do fun things.
The Gite was better than expected and far larger than the images suggest.
Stephaneâs English is also very good so communication was good.
All in all a 5 star stay. I would highly recommend this property.
Thank you for having us. Al

Amazing, total luxury in a tranquil setting.
Owners were superb! Our 4 children (all under 5) adored the pool which was heated and the perfect temperature all day. The BBQ and outside area was perfect and the air con property was lovely to cool down in when our baby got too hot and needed feeding âșïž We have stayed in 5* properties all over the world and this is certainly up there with the best of them! The owners have done a sensational job renovating the property. Thank you both for a wonderful stay. If you want a break away from it all this is the place to stop.

Beautiful style in the Tarn
This property is stylish and comfortable. The location and setting are very lovely, bucolic and quiet. The pool has a great sunset view. The location is an easy drive to many wonderful sites in the Tarn. The host and hostess are kind and accomodating. We had a wonderful time at the house and exploring locally.
