Glass Act: Midi-Pyrénées

Located in Toulouse’s central Carmes district – sitting between Place Saint-Georges and Saint-Etienne Cathedral – this sleek home is a vision of modern style with its industrial edge and ample natural light.

Featuring a glass ceiling above the kitchen area as well as large windows, you’ll have no trouble making yourself at home, whether that’s chilling out on the sofa with a glass of wine or gathering for sociable meals at the table when you’re not out sampling the many restaurants just outside. There’s a desk space here too should you need to catch up on work, while the two bedrooms – comfortable and pared-back – are ready to ease you into slumber after a day of touring the city on foot. Factor in the bathroom with its relaxing rainfall shower, and you’ve got everything you need for a dreamy stay.

When it comes to exploring, you’ve got a wealth of things to see and do nearby – take a stroll along the banks of the Garonne, visit Place du Capitole (a ten-minute walk), stroll around Place Saint-Georges (a seven-minute walk) and admire the cathedral in Place Saint-Étienne, one minute away on foot.
