Labistoul is the ideal place for a chambre d’hotes / restaurant / gites business / riding school / activity holidays. It’s advantages are

• 5 mins from historic Cordes sur Ciel, a popular holiday destination for the French, British, Dutch, Germans and Spanish. Situated in popular ‘Kensingtarn’, Cordes and the Tarn are holiday destinations favoured by mid/high income British families. Cordes currently lacks good quality hotels and restaurants

• A historic manoir chateau sited in the midst of its land including ruined medieval tower. Lake, medieval gardens, equestrian facilities and fishing lake all add to its uniqueness.

• In the chateau little work would be required to convert the 6 bedrooms in the chateau into ‘en-suite’ accommodation. Separate 2/3 bedroomed letting apartments could also be created. In addition, if required, the ‘secret floor ’ and stables could also be converted into further accommodation of 3/4 en-suite bedrooms and bathrooms

• The Chateau living rooms are all very large thus ideal for either restaurant use or guest sitting rooms.

• The Chateau is light and airy in the summer, but is also equipped to be an inviting and romantic winter destination with its open fires and wood burning stoves (supplemented by underfloor heating and old style radiators (oil fired boiler).

• The 4 bedroomed farmhouse also has excellent letting potential. With its own garden and private swimming pool, it can be completely separate from the main chateau. Although we primarily use it for family and friends, we have had no problem letting it when empty throughout the high season (current rental price of £1,450 per week). We have not tried to rent it in winter although have installed wood burning fire to facilitate this. The adjacent barn could be easily converted into further accommodation on 2 floors and again has a wealth of interesting features including an imposing arch.

• The professional standard equestrian facilities and fishing lake all add to its potential.
