Former family home turned holiday gîte, this renovated cocoon gives you direct access to the walking paths of the Tarn and the rich history of Mazamet. In Mazamet, in the Négrin district, this single-storey gîte welcomes you at the foot of the Montagne Noire, where the atmosphere of an old village blends with an authentic setting. Former capital of the wool-pulling industry, Mazamet has reinvented itself while showcasing its rich heritage. Urban trails bring back the era of grand townhouses and leather manufacturing, while the Maison des Mémoires recounts the history of Catharism, born in the region. Today, Mazamet is also a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts: from the Himalayan footbridge overlooking the Arnette valley, to marked hiking trails, Montagnès lake or the climb to the iconic Pic de Nore, there is no shortage of activities. Just a stone’s throw from the gîte, the Passa Païs greenway takes you on foot or by bike all the way to Hérault, and the town’s new swimming pool delights both young and old. This air-conditioned family house is ideal for a stay for 4 people. The entrance is through a small courtyard enclosed by a gate, also serving as a terrace for outdoor meals with a view of the garden. A hallway leads to a bedroom with a 140x190 cm bed, a shower room, and a separate toilet. A short corridor leads to a second bedroom (also with a 140x190 cm bed), then to the bright and comfortable living room with a large picture window opening onto the courtyard. It includes a lounge area with TV and a well-equipped kitchen. An interior staircase (not accessible during the rental) recalls the house’s original layout. A cool room in the basement is available for storing bikes or equipment, and also offers an additional toilet and shower room. Opposite the house, a small elevated garden accessible by a few steps. Not enclosed but pleasant, it features sun loungers. A private garage completes the property. Heating and electricity are extra (meter reading). Bed linen and towels are not provided.
