    The setting, the pool, the food and the staff (Didier and Rebecca) were all wonderful. The 3 bed apartment was also huge, spacious and well-equipped.

    Rebecca and Didier have created a beautiful place to stay. The setting is so tranquil, and the house impressive and rich in history, without being pretentious. Sympathetically renovated, you can't help but immediately feel relaxed on arrival. We...

Rebecca & Didier Mauro
A timeless mansion reminiscent of an Italian villa along the route of the Albigensian fortified towns, combining the allure of yesterday and all today’s comforts. Perfect for recharging your batteries far from the world’s hustle and bustle and ideally located to set out and explore the area, Le Domaine de La Monestarié is sure to meet your every expectation. Get ready to fall for the charms of this magical place that leaves no-one indifferent!
After a busy life far from our native region, we leapt at the opportunity to combine a career change with the chance to return to our roots in Occitania. We’re fans of nature, properties of standing, receiving guests, sharing our taste for travel, culture in all its forms and gastronomy, so the project to open a guesthouse appeared as an obvious choice. A year and countless visits later, Le Domaine de La Monestarié appeared at the end of our path, and the adventure began… But in addition to offering accommodation in an outstanding site, our desire is to create unique experiences in a warm, friendly atmosphere where nothing is forced. We’d like to offer you an interlude of light and freedom with a love for the simple, authentic pleasures, meticulous detail, exquisite aesthetics and comfort. This is the inspiration that gave rise to Bed & Culture. The rest of the story will be written with you as we meet…
Like a bird on a branch, when you stay at La Monestarié, you’ll be a wingbeat away from Occitania’s remarkable sites, starting with the superb town of Albi, the episcopal city with UNESCO world heritage listing that’s home to the impressive Sainte Cecile Cathedral, the world’s largest collection of artworks by Toulouse Lautrec and a great many classified historical buildings. Ideally located along the trail of fortified Albigensian towns, the so-called "Bastides", in the heart of the millenary vineyard of Gaillac, you’ll have the chance to learn all about local history as you pass through Cordes-Sur-Ciel, Castelnau de Montmirail, Penne, Puycelci and many other beautiful medieval villages. And if the Autan wind blows you a little further, less than an hour drive from La Monestarié is Toulouse, known to locals as La Ville Rose (the Pink City), Castres with its houses suspended over the river Agout, Sorèze and its abbey, the famous Saturday morning market in Revel, the Canal du Midi in Castelnaudary, famous for its Cassoulet dish, and a great many other incredible places we’d be delighted to advise you about.
