Monthly Rentals in Monestiés

A very good house! it had everything we needed and more plus very comfortable beds! everything was very clean and well organised. the wood burning stove in the kitchen worked great. My only disappointment, is that I didn't stay for longer!

The accommodation is the upper part of the house where our hosts live, which is convenient for any problems! The studio is relatively small but has everything you need ;) in terms of heating (stay in December/January), it was perfect, we did not get cold and the duvet was warm. Not having a vehicle, we found that the accommodation was easily accessible from Carmaux station (1.5 km walk) as well as from the D91 to hitchhike to Monestiés (6 km) and Cordes (20 km). We were lucky enough to see some birds in the tree right next to the bedroom window as well as some insects that joined us in the accommodation; quite normal because we are surrounded by nature ;) Regarding our hosts Carol and Christian, they were very nice and were able to give us tips for hikes and places to visit. It is therefore with great joy that we recommend this listing! 😊

Where do we start! Thierry’s communication from booking was excellent. When we arrived Thierry met us with enthusiasm and showed us around our part of his castle! The castle, built in the 1500’s, has been lovingly restored and has all the mod cons needed! He is a very proud owner and has so much knowledge! His english put our French to shame as he has mastered it well! Thierry spent time with us when we arrived explaining the village and things to do in the area and would message with suggestions he thought we may be interested in (market at Carmaux etc) which was very helpful! When it was 34deg outside the castle was a much needed cool retreat! I can’t fault the accommodation, the area or the owner at all! Don’t hesitate to book Thierry’s part of history -you won’t regret it. Thierry, thank you for your hospitality and if we are ever in the area we will not hesitate to book with you again!

Wonderful to travel with children. The outdoor garden, with a trampoline included, is a joy to play with. Other than that, it has several games to hang out. The kitchen is nicely equipped and the bathroom and rooms are more than enough to spend a few days. The house is located in a very quiet neighborhood and is very well located to know the beautiful towns of Tarn and Aveyron. Highly recommend.
