You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Rustic simplicity, comfort, sublime views and spectacular pool!

Set in the grounds of a larger house, our charming gite offers the chance for relaxation across two private terraces and by a splendid swimming pool. The village of Cordes sur Ciel is right on your doorstep and is rightly regarded as one of the most beautiful in the whole of France. Dating back to the twelfth century the medieval citadel is beautifully preserved and offers an extraordinary trip back in time. The village has a weekly market and all the shops you need to create beautiful food in your well equipped kitchen. There are bars, restaurants and cafes and a host of outstanding artists studios, ceramists and workshops creating a wonderfully bohemian atmosphere. If you are lucky you will have the opportunity to enjoy one of the many festivals in Cordes and the surrounding villages which run from April to October.
Our goal is to help you get the most our of your stay here and if you let us know what you enjoy doing we would be delighted to help assemble a week or two of activities that fit with your interests whether cultural, gastronomic, outdoor or sporting.
Cordes is an ideal base from which to discover the glories of the Tarn a sublime corner of rural South West France which is often compared to Tuscany. We prefer to think of Tuscany as the Tarn of Italy!
Albi our nearest small city is listed as a Unesco world heritage site and is a must on any itinerary as are the numerous "Bastide" fortified villages that dot the landscape and the little know but exceptional Gaillac wine lands. If you love the outdoors you will love it here and can take your pick from walking, cycling, mountain biking,wild swimming, horse riding, canoeing, paragliding and hot air ballooning - we would be delighted to help you organise all of these activities.
Our Gite has been upgraded recently and will sleep a family of four in comfort and five if someone is happy to sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. We provide free parking. We dont have many rules, asking only that you treat the property as you would like your home to be treated and that you enjoy at least one bottle of Rose with your hosts! We look forward to welcoming you to Le Chevalier Noir in Cordes sur Ciel.

Love this gîte!
Our family stayed for a week and it was perfect for us. Daniel and Paul were wonderful hosts — friendly and super helpful. The gîte was just what we wanted and needed. Comfortable, quiet, spacious, private, superb location, easy parking. We would definitely stay again.

Amazing property, great pool and view.
Such a beautiful property, we had such a lovely week, our hosts had thought of all the small touches with the property, it felt very clean with new linen and beds. We were given great recommendations on eating out and activities to entertain the children. Our children loved the pool, as well as all the herbs and fruit growing in the garden. We will return.
