Dear travellers and lovers of the festive season,
Christmas is fast approaching, and at our Domaine de la Durantie, we’re delighted to immerse you in an authentically Tarn festive experience. Let us transport you to a world where tradition blends with the sparkle of contemporary celebrations. Imagine illuminated villages, warm laughter and festive tables – that’s what the festive season is all about here. We’re opening the doors to a magical winter, rich in colour, flavour and human warmth.
In this article, we’re going to suggest a whole host of things to do in the region over the festive season. Are you ready?
Our Christmas markets are waiting for you with their glittering garlands and stalls brimming with artisanal products.
Gaillac, with its completely revamped and unusual Christmas market, offers an atmosphere worthy of the biggest ski resorts (ski gondolas, 25 m toboggan run, pyramid chalet, wine bar, beer bar).
In Albi and Castres, wander between the chalets and discover a treasure trove of handicrafts. Each object tells a story, each bite evokes tradition.
Let yourself be seduced by the scent of cinnamon and mulled wine, and find the perfect gift from among the creations of local artisans at the various Christmas markets in our beautiful region.
When it comes to gifts, think local: gourmet boxes made with the best products from the Tarn, unique experiences using local know-how… Choosing a Made in Tarn gift means sharing a piece of our region and our heart.
The Boudu boutique in Castelnau de Montmiral has a range of gifts to suit all tastes. But don’t miss the picturesque shops in Cordes-sur-Ciel or the workshops dotted around Lisle-sur-Tarn, where the authenticity of the regional products will amaze you.
Savouring Christmas.
The festive season would not be complete without the exquisite flavours of the Tarn. Our chefs unveil inspired festive recipes, accompanied by Gaillac wines. Enjoy a perfect match between food and wine and let the magic work on your taste buds.
At L’Auberge des Arcades in Castelnau de Montmiral, local produce takes pride of place. Vigne en Foule and La Table du Sommelier in Gaillac are unmissable addresses where tradition meets culinary innovation. In Albi, l’Épicurien and le Pontié invite you to enjoy a delicious New Year’s Eve.
Of course, there are plenty of other places to enjoy the festive season. We’re preparing an article on this subject, so stay tuned!
Winter is here, but the atmosphere in our spa villas is one of tenderness and relaxation. Imagine an evening where, after a vibrant day, you slip into the warm waters of a swim spa. Local produce bought at the market becomes the star of a candlelit dinner, enhanced by a bottle of Gaillac wine. As night falls, tranquillity settles in and a world of softness envelops you.

Perfect for families and friends, our villas are fully equipped so you can prepare your own festive meals in a kitchen where nothing is missing.
