Preau Saint-Jacques

Quiet, tastefully furnished, warm welcome. I recommand

Everything was perfect

Fabulous host, attentive & welcoming (fluent English speaker too). Excellent combination of coziness, modern reworking of a traditional house. Perfect for a long or short stay. The location is ideal in the old town. Restaurants within 2 minutes, Place Jean Jaurès 4 minutes.

Impossible to dislike anything here!

This is a beautiful place to stay. Lovely cottage, great space, with a welcoming stove burning. Very nice breakfast supplied, and we enjoyed being able to have it in our own kitchen at our leisure.

Character, space, location, outside space, owner’s care

Church bells chime all night. Fridge small when shared with another couple. Just a curtain between the en-suite and bedroom. All very minor issues.

The owners Eric and Catherine could not have been more friendly and helpful. The property is right in the centre of Castres and the town is interesting and buzzy, but behind the door off the street it is quiet, shady and secluded. The courtyard garden is delightful and we ate outside all the time.

Parking needs a bit of effort and the property is not easy to find initially in the very narrow streets of the city centre. We got used to it!
