  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  This is an old hunting lodge in the Tarn surrounded by hill top medieval villages. Rivers and forests and hot! Beautiful local towns but the house is quite isolated and NOT in a village. There is a pool and beautiful garden with a tennis court. . You must like being in the countryside.
