The Ladies Only Tour is situated on the very edge of the Tarn et Garonne sandwiched between the neighbouring departments of the Tarn and Aveyron. This means we have the very best of three wonderful regions to explore by bike from our doorstep.
Historic Market villages
Our closest and nearest neighbouring village is Saint Antonin Noble Val. Its spectacular position beneath the towering cliffs of Roc D’Anglars once earned it the title "Nobilis Vallis" or Noble Valley.
Hundreds of years of history have left their mark on this special place which is a maze of medieval streets and civic buildings, a picturesque river and the most fantastic Sunday market. The town hall, built in 1125 is the oldest in France and sits imposingly in the Place de la Halle.
Furthermore, bars, shops and restaurants all add to the quiet buzz of this charming village.
Lush and verdant
It is a region of dynamic gorges, rolling hills, deep forests and picture perfect Bastide towns also fed by the Aveyron and the Tarn rivers.
To the north, atop a rocky ridge emerging from the clouds lies Najac with its royal castle full of mysterious corridors and secret passageways. To the south, vineyards and sunflowers line the landscape with Domaines producing red, rose and white Gaillac wines just ripe for sampling. At every other turn fantastic market towns offer myriads of regional delicacies from fresh figs to cured meats, including wild boar, and local goat’s cheese.
Within 30 minutes of the property are four of France’s prettiest villages (‘les plus beaux villages de France’ ) - at Bruniquel, Puycelsi, Najac and Castelnau de Montmiral – boasting picturesque architecture, scenery and tempting restaurants.
This really is a region with something for everyone – perfect when seen from two wheels and with over 2000 hours of sunshine a year, you can visit in any season and experience our warm, bright spring days, hot, dry summers, mild, golden autumns and crisp winters.
Toulouse is the nearest suitable airport with daily flights from multiple airports in the UK and Europe.
We can organise airport pickup. Car hire is available and it is around 1 hour 20 minutes to the accommodation.
Temperatures can also get very high in May to September so protection is advised. We advise bringing cold weather jacket and leggings just in case however.
Local hire (Road & Hybrid and helmets) are available however please let us know at the time of booking!
