The Tarn is a glorious meeting place of those desirable features we cannot fail to worship, with her back resting against the Pyrenean mountains, the rocky slopes and upland pastures fall into deep dales, wide plains and sunlit forests, also close to the great cities of Toulouse, Carcassonne and Montpellier. The Tarn borders South West France and the Midi-Pyrenees. A 10 hour drive from northern ferry ports, with motorway up until the last 30 minutes, makes for practical access by car. The availability of surrounding airports gives interesting travel options. Rodez is 50 miles away away Toulouse 60, Carcassonne 100 and Bergerac 120 miles. The Paris Toulouse TGV service with local rail links as also a favourite.
With short mild winters averaging 14.7 degrees and sun soaked summers, the climate offers the best of cool green Atlantic freshness with the warmth of the Mediterranean. The Tarn has approximately 2,380 hours of sunshine annually with temperatures rising to 40 degrees.
