Things To See & Do

Wine Tours & Tasting

 

The Manoir is in the heart of Gaillac's winemaking area and numerous excellent wineries are within easy reach. We'd be happy to recommend some.   

Hilltop villages and bastides towns
 
If picturesque perched villages, bastide towns and traditional markets are your passion then you could spend days visiting the many surrounding towns and villages all within easy driving distance including the stunning 12th century Cordes-sur-Ciel just 12 kms away 

Markets 

 

For many a perfect day out includes strolling through one of the many local food & antiques markets. A "must do" is the Sunday morning market in St. Antonin Noble Val - sit in the market square with a coffee or rosé and people watch
