Listing highlights

Exceptional host communication

Recent guests gave Jamie a 5-star rating for communication.
La Singlarie is an organic farm provding the perfect base in a unique setting with panoramic views of Najac, one of the “Plus beaux villages de France” and a “Grande Site Occitanie”

Couples, families and groups are welcome to take a step back from the rush of modern life and relax; visit the local area rich in history and culture, perhaps go swimming, hire a kayak or bike nearby, horse ride, taste the local cuisine in the many local restaurants and bars.

The space
Our converted stone barn has two well appointed and spacious gites retaining a traditional style but with modern fixtures and fittings. Each has been designed to offer privacy with large private terraces giving spectacular views across the Aveyron valley to Najac’s ruined château, the medieval village and surrounding countryside.

We will be delighted to show you the farm and introduce you to our organic methods for raising commercial livestock.

Children (and adults!) can help feed the chickens and ducks, pigs, the donkeys, Bambou and Vanille.

Guest access
Our guests are free to explore the farm noting that children should be accompanied as it is a working environment.

Neighborhood highlights

Jamie’s home is located in Najac, Aveyron, Occitanie, France

Najac is one of the officially designated “Plus Beaux Village de France" (most beautiful villages of France) and a “Grand Site de Occitanie” - a picturesque mediaeval bastide (fortified village or town) it rests along a ridge above a bend in the Aveyron River.

The partly ruined château built in 1253, dominates the setting with the 13th century Eglise Saint-Jean, built by the villagers under duress as a punishment for their Cathar beliefs, just below. Both overlook the lower village with its shops, artisan workshops and places to eat. In the upper village the Faubourg has timber framed buildings, and arcades with cafés, shops, restaurants all grouped around a central square.

Immediately below the village, on the banks of the Aveyron river, you will find the municipal swimming pool, just minutes from La Singlarie. Opposite, over the bridge, bikes, kayaks and canoes can be hired. There is a new acro-branch centre at the same location for children (and adults!) to test their skills in the treetops, under supervision, and with the latest safety equipment. There is a bar and restaurant for pre/post activity refreshments. Shaded picnic areas can be found along the banks of the river.

During summer months there is a Sundaymarket and weekly night markets with regional produce and food available in the village squares.

Najac has an excellent general store “l'Epicerie du Coin” run by the delightful Marie-Agnes and her partner Laurent; a little further away (15 minutes from the farm) there is an Intermarche supermarket with all you would need for a weekly shop, plus a service station for fuel.
