Holiday Home with pool SW France

Le Bosquet near Caylus, sleeps 8 + Baby

Le Bosquet is situated on a plateau and enjoys some 10 acres of land and woodland. 

This relaxing and tranquil location is 7km from Caylus, a fascinating medieval town which has barely changed with the passage of time. Market days are Tuesdays and Saturdays and you will delight in the local produce such as fruits, vegetables, honey, herbs, cheeses and wines. During the season there are several 'medieval' evening markets.

Nearby there are restaurants and bars, a small supermarket, patisseries and butchers.
Within a 15 minute drive are larger supermarkets at Villefranche or Caussade. There is an abundance of interesting local medieval villages and a number of activities for the more energetic.

A number of local villages and towns have interesting and colourful markets. Be sure not to miss the local market in St Antonin held on Sunday mornings.

Peace and tranquility surround you, but for those more active, there are many sporting activities nearby including tennis, fishing, pot-holing, rock-climbing and horse riding. There is a delightful 18 hole golf course at Albi, where there is also a water park for children. An afternoon's excursion by canoe through the Aveyron Gorge is also considered a 'must' by nearly all guests.

Within short driving distances there are a number of fascinating towns and villages including Albi, Cahors, Penne and Bruniquel, all of which are well worth a visit. As well as the nearby medieval villages and bastide towns, there are châteaux, abbeys, churches and magnificent natural sites of outstanding beauty; whether it be wooded valleys or the meandering Aveyron with its dramatic gorges.
