Villa La Plaine at Occitanie
The Home
Villa la Plaine is a beautifully reconstructed and renovated French farmhouse - and definitely one of our favourites here at Oliver’s Travels. It is very secluded on top of a little hill in the deep Tarn countryside with breath-taking 360 degree views of farms, fields, villages and distant hills. The approach is up a long track, hedged in lavender. You arrive at the house surrounded by a large courtyard of compressed ocre gravel and see it all before you: house, pool, garden and trees.
The property has been restored and renovated to the highest standard. This is truly 5 star accommodation where beauty and comfort are equally important. The owner’s goal was to make Villa la Plaine a calm, healing and beautiful retreat - and we think that goal was certainly achieved!
Plus, you’ll get the 5 star treatment as well - because 3 hours of maid service is included daily!
You enter the house through enormous barn doors...

The Neighborhood
The house is located about halfway between Montauban and Gaillac, about 45 minutes northeast of the Toulouse Airport. Its nearest village is Monclar de Quercy, about a 5 minute drive away. Monclar has bars, restaurants, supermarket, bank, bakery and various other services (hairdressers, pharmacy etc). Montauban and Gaillac, both about 20 minutes drive, are the larger nearby towns. Everyday in a nearby village there is an open market for fresh fruit, vegetables and cheese etc. The historic city of Albi is 4 km away with its monolithic rose-brick cathedral and its imposing Toulouse Lautrec Museum overlooking the Tarn river. Toulouse is a large city with much to offer in culture and entertainment. In the surrounding countryside there are many beautiful listed fortified and ancient villages (Cordes sur Ciel, Puycelsi, Penne, Bruniquel, St Antonin de Noble Val) that are easy to reach and lovely to explore. There is fishing on the Tarn and the nearby Aveyron rivers and a beautiful golf course near Albi.
