Why choose a holiday rental near Rabastens for your next vacation?

There are places that soothe the mind at first glance, and the Rabastens region is one of them. Strategically located on the Toulouse-Albi axis via the A68 motorway, this destination has become the favorite refuge for city dwellers in search of greenery, authenticity, and a return to roots. Rabastens is not just a stopover: it is a way of life, punctuated by the Saturday morning market and walks along the Tarn river.

If you are looking for a holiday rental in Rabastens or its immediate surroundings, you are probably not looking for the hustle and bustle of a noisy city center. You are looking for birdsong in the morning, an open horizon over vineyards or sunflowers, and that unique feeling of total disconnection. This is precisely the experience we have built for you at Les Cottages du Tarn.

Our estates in Peyrole and Brens are located a very short drive from the historic center of Rabastens. This location is ideal: it allows you to enjoy the local animation, visit the Notre-Dame-du-Bourg church (UNESCO listed), or shop for fresh produce, while returning in the evening to the absolute calm of your holiday home. Unlike a classic rental in the town center where you might hear neighbors, we offer you space, nature, and exceptional private wellness facilities.

The Peyrole Estate: Nature Immersion and Private Pools

At Peyrole, we have designed our accommodations as individual cocoons, thought out to preserve your privacy. Here, there are no overlooking neighbors. Each gite is an invitation to relaxation, surrounded by the Tarn countryside as far as the eye can see. Whether you come as a couple for a romantic weekend, as a family for the summer holidays, or with friends to reunite, you will inevitably find the cottage that matches your desire for escape.

The highlight of this estate? Each cottage has its own private heated swimming pool (during the sunny season). This is a rare comfort around Rabastens, where most rentals offer pools shared with other vacationers.

1. Le Cottage Bien-être : Romantic escape and spa

This is undoubtedly our most requested accommodation for stays as a duo or for small families who want to treat themselves. Le Cottage Bien-être was designed around a simple concept: relaxation without compromise.

From the moment you arrive, you will be seduced by its soothing atmosphere. But the real treasure is outside: in addition to your private heated pool, you have a private jacuzzi accessible all year round. Imagine yourself after a day visiting Rabastens or Albi, relaxing in the hot bubbles, a glass of Gaillac “Méthode Ancestrale” in hand, under a starry sky. Comfortably accommodating up to 7 people, it remains a favorite for lovers thanks to its intimate atmosphere.

2. Le Gîte Nature: Back to basics and authenticity

Did you search for “nature gite Rabastens”? You are in the right place. Le Gîte Nature is the embodiment of happy simplicity. We decorated and furnished it to blend into its environment.

Inside, the tones are soft, and the materials invite touch. It is a holiday home without fuss but with all modern comforts. Its terrace opens generously onto the outside, allowing you to have breakfast in the sun while listening to nature wake up. Of course, here too you enjoy your private heated pool, nestled in your private garden. It is the dream place to disconnect from screens, read a good book, and reconnect with essentials as a family.

3. Le Grand Cottage: Space for tribes

Family reunions or vacations with friends require space for everyone to feel comfortable. Le Grand Cottage is our answer to this need. With its large capacity (up to 12 people), it is a true family home where life is good.

The living room is vast, allowing for large convivial meals where you can remake the world late into the night. The bedrooms are designed for rest. Outside, the private pool becomes the rallying point for young and old. It is the ideal gite for those who want to explore the Rabastens market in the morning and organize a large barbecue by the water at lunch, without ever feeling cramped.

4. Le Bohème: A decoration that invites you to travel

For the cottage Le Bohème, we took great care with the decoration to create a unique “slow life” ambiance. The inspiration is ethnic chic: rattan, light wood, macramé, ochre and terracotta shades that recall the warmth of the South West.

It is an accommodation that has a soul. You feel immediately zen. It is the perfect choice for those who are sensitive to interior design and are looking for a photogenic and soothing place. The transition between indoors and outdoors is fluid, leading you naturally to your private pool for afternoons of absolute idleness. A real parenthesis of softness a few kilometers from urban agitation.

5. Le Loft: Modernity and light in the countryside

Who said the countryside had to be rustic? With Le Loft, we offer a different experience, resolutely modern. This gite stands out for its generous volumes and its high ceilings which give an incredible sensation of freedom.

Bathed in light thanks to large openings, Le Loft plays the card of contemporary design while remaining warm. It is the favorite accommodation for those who love open and uncluttered spaces. The modern kitchen is fully equipped to prepare local products bought in Rabastens. And of course, the experience continues outside with your private heated pool, a true extension of the living space.

The Brens Estate: Conviviality, Private Sauna, and Vineyards

Located in Brens, just a few minutes from the Rabastens motorway exit (Exit 9), this second estate is nestled in the heart of the Gaillac vineyards. It is the perfect base for groups, sports clubs, or large families looking to combine wine discovery and moments of sharing.

The “Private Sauna” Experience

Because relaxation is our absolute priority, we have equipped the Brens estate with a superb wellness area. To ensure your privacy and comfort, we offer a private sauna operation. The principle is simple: you book your time slot, and the space is entirely yours. It is a real wellness asset, particularly appreciated after a long walk on the banks of the Tarn in Rabastens or an autumn hike.

Modular Gites for Groups (6 to 24 people)

Finding a large house capable of accommodating everyone comfortably is often a logistical headache. At Brens, we have the solution thanks to our 4 connecting cottages: Le Primeur, Le Vigne Rouge, Le Loin de l’Oeil, and Le Syrah.

Each gite is autonomous and can accommodate about 6 people with all necessary comfort. But the magic happens thanks to our unique modular system:

• Le Duo Syrah Loin de l’Oeil: These two accommodations can open up to each other thanks to a double insulated door. You thus create a large holiday home for 12 people, with two kitchens, two living rooms, but a shared open space.
• Le Duo Vigne Rouge Primeur: Same ingenious configuration. Ideal for two friendly families who want to spend holidays together while keeping their own sleeping area and bathroom for more privacy.

In total, by privatizing all the cottages in Brens, we can welcome groups of up to 24 people. It is the ideal configuration to house wedding guests (many castles nearby like the Château de Mauriac) or for a cousin reunion near Rabastens.

What to do from your holiday home around Rabastens?

By choosing Les Cottages du Tarn, you are geographically at the center of everything the Tarn has best to offer. Here are our recommendations for a successful “Slow Tourism” stay:

1. Stroll through the Rabastens Market

On Saturday morning, the “Promenade des Lices” in Rabastens comes alive. It is an authentic, colorful, and lively market, where you will find the best local products: sheep cheeses, charcuterie from Lacaune, organic vegetables from the Tarn valley. It is the unmissable meeting place for locals and Toulouse residents who come seeking quality.

2. Visit Notre-Dame-du-Bourg

It is impossible to stay near Rabastens without entering this church. Its colorful frescoes, which entirely cover the walls and vault, are spectacular and tell fascinating medieval stories. It is a major stop on the paths of Saint James of Compostela that deserves a detour.

3. Discover Gaillac Wines

From your cottage in Brens or Peyrole, you are surrounded by vines. Take the time to visit the surrounding independent estates. Many passionate winemakers offer tastings and cellar tours to understand the millennial history of our vineyard, one of the oldest in France.
