The family home at Rivel has become a holiday home
Totally independent holiday cottage, halfway between Toulouse and Albi. Ideal for a stay with family or friends, just outside the charming village of Giroussens, at the gateway to the Gaillac vineyards.
Giroussens, an ancient fortified town founded at the end of the 13th century around a castle overlooking the valley, was a prosperous little town before the French Revolution, thanks to the activity of numerous potters established on the edge of the forest, using a privilege granted to the inhabitants to take wood from the forest to fuel their kilns. Some remarkable pieces remain from this local industry, which can be seen at the Giroussens Ceramic Centre.
Everything has been thought of at Le Rivel for a peaceful holiday: quality services, generous accommodation, a lovely terrace for pleasant summer evenings and a huge garden, not forgetting the covered bowling green and of course the beautiful swimming pool, just for you!
Opposite the front door is a park with a granite table in the shade of three large plane trees for pleasant outdoor meals. On the south side, the kitchen opens onto a large terrace from which you can admire the Agout valley and the village of Saint Lieux below.
On either side of the access road, a plantation of trees (holm and pubescent oaks, field maples, umbrella pines) has been planted over 4000 m².
