Le Chevalier Noir

We had the most fantastic week. Paul went out of his way to make us feel welcome. He helped us to plan and joined us for cycling and canoeing activities which were great fun. He helped us finding routes for walks with wonderful views and one morning took us to the most fabulous viewpoint to see the morning mist rising above Cordes. We stayed in the Gite which we loved as it has its own patio and terraced garden and we were able to sip wine and watch the sun go down over the valley. The Gite had a large lounge , a fitted kitchen with washing machine and dishwasher, a generous bathroom and 2 lovely bedrooms with comfortable beds.. we couldn’t wait for breakfast in the mornings.. fresh bread , fruit, yoghurt , croissants , cheese, hams.. so much choice.. we loved our french omelettes and all of that sat outside overlooking the valley. Our in house evening dining( prepared by Freya when we stayed) was absolutely delicious and Paul and Freya were great company, I really can’t recommend le chevalier noir highly enough. A five star experience, we will be back

We had a wonderful stay at Le Chevalier Noir. The property was spotless, check-in instructions were crystal clear, and the space offered complete privacy with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Paul is an exceptional host who went above and beyond from the moment we arrived - helping with luggage, serving delicious breakfast each morning, providing excellent restaurant recommendations and hidden vista points, and even making our dinner reservations. This is exactly what a 5-star experience looks like. We can't recommend this property highly enough and will definitely be back. Thanks for everything, Paul!

love staying at Le Chevalier Noir. Paul is an excellent host (I’m sure Daniel is too but we haven’t met him yet). The rooms are great, the beds are incredibly comfortable and if you’re lucky enough to get one of the rooms that look over the valley you’ll probably just sit and look at the view all day. Paul’s breakfasts are also fabulous. He makes an early trip to the local Boulangerie which makes delicious croissants, pain au chocolat and bread including a loaf of the best GF bread I’ve ever tasted. There are also fresh local eggs laid and made to order 😊 and fresh coffee, hot chocolate and tea. The village, of course, is also well worth a lengthy stroll after breakfast to work it off. Paul also has great local restaurant recommendations and has made all of our reservations for us and also has plenty of knowledge on the local villages you have to visit. I believe he also organises bike tours of the area. Can’t recommend Le Chevalier Noir enough.

We had recently stayed at this rejuvenating Airbnb and it was heartwarming experience. Our host, Paul was wonderful and genuine who provided us with recommendations with local tips for dining and sightseeing. Paul had also taken us on a scenic bike ride along the countryside paths which was truly memorable. The property is surrounded by picturesque landscapes with hills, lush fields, and charming vineyards. The accommodation was cozy, blending rustic charm with modern comforts. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and experience the charm of rural France!

Stunning house in a fabulous location in the beautiful village of Cordes-sur-Ciel. Paul was an excellent and attentive host, knowledgeable about the area and cooked us a fabulous dinner and provided a lovely breakfast when requested. The house and accommodation have bags of character and the views are wonderful. Easy access (if you can manage a short but steep walk) to the top of the village of Cordes-sur-Ciel which is a stunning hilltop village and the surrounding area is lovely too with a short drive to historic Albi nearby. Can't recommend it enough.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Le Chevalier Noir, and I can't recommend it highly enough! The stunning views from the property truly take your breath away, making it the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The accommodations are clean and feature comfortable beds that ensured a restful night's sleep. Each morning, I woke up refreshed and ready to explore the quaint neighborhood, which is just a short walk from the charming village of Cordes-sur-Ciel.
