Here, the countryside undulates in gentle curves, with fields of wheat and sunflowers bathed in sunlight. In the distance, the Pyrenees glisten in the spring sunshine, beyond the hills. The peace and quiet are absolute; you can relax, far from it all, just 30 minutes from the “Pink City,” in a brand-new, very well-equipped vacation rental. This region is known as the “Pays de Cocagne,” a name derived from the cultivation of safflower. You can learn about this history at the Château de Magrin. During your vacation, don’t miss a trip to Albi, an Episcopal City listed as an UNESCO World Heritage Site; to Carcassonne (a magnificent medieval city); as well as to Revel and Saint-Ferréol (the source of the Canal du Midi) in the Montagne Noire, and explore the charming little villages and the Bastides of the Tarn. ** THE COTTAGE ** The cottage is attached to the owners’ home but has no adjoining rooms; it features a private garden, terrace, and entrance.
