La Maison de Glavenas
also know as Porte Rouge, is a superb merchants house high in Combret, a
hidden secret in this beautiful part of France. A medieval village
nestling in rolling hills with stories to tell of days long gone by in
the chequered history of the Midi Pyrenees. The secret within a secret
is this house. Open the red gates and you are home with your own walled
courtyard and romantic pool. The house with ancient beams and large airy
rooms has superb views of the lovely countryside
Combret is a very small
hill village in the departement of Aveyron, the kitchen of France,
midway between Monpellier and Toulouse and dates back to the 11th
century. The village is perched on a spur in a bend of the meandering
river Rance which is a tributary to the Tarn. The countryside around
Combret is completely unspoilt, hilly and partly wooded. There is horse
riding, co-carting, gliding and two public swimming pools nearby. The
river has been declared clean for swimming in
There is a large,
secluded, totally private walled courtyard with a stone barbecue and
table and chairs. It is possible to be in the sun or if too hot, in the
shade most of the day. There is romantic outside lighting for those
balmy evenings under the stars. Nestling under the medieval stone walls
is a small swimming pool. The pool is half out of the ground and is safe
from young children as the steps up and into it are easily removed. The
open countryside is a few yards outside the courtyard through the big
red gates.
About 40 minutes drive away there are lakes with sandy beaches, pedalos
etc.. The river Tarn with canoeing, rafting, rock climbing etc. about
30/70 minutes drive. Driving the full length of the Gorge du Tarn takes
a full day and has breathtaking views, a well worthwhile excursion. The
Mediterranean at Sete, a beautiful fishing town with fine restaurants
and long sandy beaches, is about two hours drive away |
