Le Secret du Chat – B&B Boutique
At the Heart of medieval Cordes : A restored Embroidery Workshop
Le Secret du Chat – B&B Boutique ( Cordes sur Ciel )
Le Secret du Chat sits on the southern city wall, near the heart of the medieval town of Cordes-sur-Ciel, the oldest fortified hill-town “bastide” of the Albi area, with many fine structures from the 13th and 14th centuries. Once an embroidery workshop, this Maison d’Hôtes has been carefully restored and keeps all its original charming features and even its 3 separates entrances from the surrounding old streets: Planol, Pendaries and Rue Chaude.
It is one one the few houses in Cordes which has kept its underground passage under the city wall to a private garden overlooking the Aurosse Valley. Today’s travellers are offered every contemporary comfort to ensure an excellent stay; there is also, in the vaulted cellars, an informal and welcoming table where the wines of Gaillac can be tasted… as well as some new versions of that old local speciality, the duck.
