Rest
At la Libaudié you can take a rest and recover from your
busy lifestyle. Everywhere on the estate we have created many cosy seats.
Swing in a hammock and enjoy a book, sun bathing at the pool,
enjoying a drink on the terrace, paddling in the river. The domain is all yours. . . .

Arrangements
On request we can assemble special arrangements for small-scale
events, courses, seminars, etc.
For example painting lessons, sculpture classes,
card clubs, biking or canoe clubs, golf arrangements, para sailing,
rafting, retreats, etc.

In the little barn
a white owl lodges! From June to August you can spot him.

Domaine de la Libaudié is
within a stones throw of the rivers, Tarn, Rance and Dourdou. These
three rivers offer a wide range of fishing, for the novice, the pleasure
angler and the specimen hunter.
The Rance is for the trout fisherman, the opportunity to show his skill
with the fly. He will be well rewarded.
The Dourdou offers all sorts of possibilities with its deep bends and
fast flowing water. Barbel and Chubb grow very big here.
The Tarn is a paradise for all anglers with Bream and Roach in large
numbers, but the icing on the cake is the very big Carp that grow well
in excess of 40 lbs. For the predator hunter there are very large
Catfish, Pike and Zander. The fishing, the wildlife and the beauty of
the countryside in this area are somethings that should not be missed.
We look forward to your
visit..........
Besides the many sights here in
the proximity such as the caves of Roquefort,
the cities Albi and Rodez,
the many pitturesque villages, the viaduct of Millau,
etc, etc, you might ask yourself, what can we do on the property itself?
Apart from the opportunities here on our domain to really relax,
we have prepared a number of various activities for you. So, do not worry
that you might get bored here.
Walks
On
our own property we have set out 2 trails, one of an hour and one of 2
houres. The small tracks lead you through the forest surrounding la
Libaudié. Click here for more walking information.
GPS walks
We
have set up about 20 GPS walks with our GPS
navigator varying from 3 to 20 kms. For a small fee you can loan our GPS receiver in
order to follow one of these tracks. Also the mountain bikers can use it.

detailed information.

Search the
treasure
Somewhere on the property we hided a treasure, a so called geo cache.
Take our GPS receiver and go find it! Read
more about it.

Walks with a donkey
Take a walk for a day or half a day together with a donkey. The children
love it. Our back neighbour rents donkeys. They carry children up to
about 5 years of age.
Photo puzzle rallye
Our 2 photo rallyes lead you right through the heart
of the Vallée du Tarn
using small roads, passing little hammocks and valleys with magnificant
scenery. We took about twenty pictures and your job is to
find out where! The nice thing
about it is that you regularly leave your car, and we send you to
places you never thought of going to.
Night walk
Walking in pitch darkness.
Absolute silence, a pitch dark
night, rustle of leaves, the sound of a tawny owl, red little eyes
following you . . .
Try our night walk for a change. On our own property
we have set out a trail marked with tiny little reflectors. Armed with a
pocket torch you'll find your way. In high season we modify it for the
children to a haunted forest . . . .
Quest
Also entirely on our property we have set out a quest,
a sort of adventure game full of
mysteries, little jokes and puzzles for young and
older ones. Plunge in to this adventure and
discover the secret of the "Libaudian order".
For the very curious among you we already reveil a tiny
little
bit of this quest.
. . . .
Biking
Because of the fact that the landscape is hilly, our
countryside is a paradise for bikers and mountain bikers. For the
inexperienced recreational biker we have set out 2 magnificent tracks of about 30 km's
along the borders of the Tarn, so reasonably flat. In the village nearby
you can hire good bikes.
Painting
At la Libaudié you can discover your hidden
talents. For a small contribution we have
at your disposal acrylic paint, brushes, etc. We have a quantity of
schist roofing tiles here which appear to be excellent painting canvas. Click
here for more information.

Camping on Domaine de
la Libaudié |
|
Behind our farm you'll find our little camp site.
(On the picture bottom/left). Keywords are small scale,
enjoy and cosiness. The
site is equipped with water and electricity. In the barn you will find
brand new showers, washing stands with hot and cold water and toilets.
Also a refrigerator is available.
 |
|
You will not find things like
mini golf, gambling halls, animation teams or anything like that. We
try to create a pleasant atmosphere in our cosy barn where you can enjoy
a drink or meal together with the other campers and our Bed & Breakfast
guests. Via a (steep) forest path you can reach our little beach at the river Tarn to fish
or to swim. Children can play in the woods or in our games room with
ping-pong.
If you have the intention to visit our camp site between July and August
we strongly recommend you to book early, preferrably before April! We only
have 6 pitches.

your camp equipment, you can rent our caravan. We have a large caravan
available with fixed bed (1.40 X 2.00 meters) and a convertable bed/corner
(1.40 X 2.00 meters). It offers room for 4 adults. The caravan is
equipped with small refrigerator, gaz stove, kitchen range, garden

Recently
we purchased for our guests the Magellan Explorist 210!
By means of this handheld little GPS
receiver
you can, without the use of maps or route descriptions,
seamlessly follow one of the many GPS tracks in
the Valley of the Tarn.
For a little compensation of € 5,- you can use our
Magellan Explorist in order to follow by
foot or by your own mountainbike one of the tracks layed out by us with an
accuracy of about 3 meters! If you, for some reason, decided to quit half way
the GPS Navigator will lead you back precisely to your starting position. It
is therefore practically impossible to get lost.
If you have your own GPS receiver, you can download several
ready made
waypoint lists into yours. On our computer we have software with maps of
the Aveyron and Tarn that scale 1:12.500. You can set out your own trail
and load it into the GPS navigator.

Somewhere
on the property we hided a treasure, a so called geo cache. Take our GPS
receiver and go find it!
Under a rock? In a hollow tree? In a well or ruin? It is hidden
somewhere! The only information you get are the coordinates where the
treasure is hidden. You can use our GPS receiver to try and find it. If
you do, write something in the journal and you can take something out of
the box. You are also supposed to leave something behind for the next
person. Much fun for
the young and old.
Do
you have hidden talents? Is there a Michelangelo in you? Well, why don't
you try!
At la Libaudié you can discover your hidden talents. For a small contribution we have
at your disposal acrylic paint, brushes, etc. We have a quantity of
schist roofing tiles which appear to be excellent painting canvas.
Have a look at the examples on this page.
So take a tile and paint, sit down in a quiet corner and put yourself to
a test!
