At the bend in the cobbled streets of Castelviel, a discreet, narrow facade stands out. At first glance, there's nothing to suggest what lies behind this ancient door on the rue du Castelviel. It's hard to imagine that beyond the old bricks lies a luminous 45 m² cocoon, extended by a secret garden with swimming pool, with the Forest plunging towards the Tarn as a backdrop.

Que vous veniez pour vous ressourcer, profiter des activités culturelles ou simplement savourer la douceur de vivre albigeoise, Maison Aïga est l'adresse rêvée : un havre de paix en plein centre-ville

C'est ici que Charlotte – albigeoise de naissance – et Nicolas – albigeois de cœur – ont choisi de faire renaître une maison oubliée. Longtemps abandonnée, marquée par le temps, elle portait en elle les traces d'un autre siècle : tomettes patinées, terre battue, murs de briques. Trois ans de réflexion, puis, en 2024, le chantier s'ouvre avec des artisans locaux. En un an, la maison se transforme, et de ses pierres surgit un lieu unique : Maison Aïga.
« Aïga » – l'eau en occitan – rend hommage à la langue régionale et à l'élément central du gîte : l'eau qui invite à la détente, qu'elle soit dans la piscine de tomettes ou dans le flot tranquille du Tarn.
« Maison » évoque à la fois la descendance familiale et l'idée d'un lieu chaleureux et accueillant, où l'on se sent immédiatement chez soi.

Aujourd'hui, Maison Aïga est un lieu rêvé et de rêve, où la nature dialogue avec la ville, où le patrimoine ancien s'accorde au confort moderne, et où chaque détail a été pensé avec amour et attention.

Charlotte, Nicolas et leurs deux enfants habitent la maison mitoyenne par le jardin : disponibles pour vous conseiller tout en restant discrets pour préserver votre intimité. Ils sont heureux de vous ouvrir la porte de cette maison singulière : un lieu qui se révèle comme un secret, et qui ne demande qu'à être partagé.

    Wonderful stay

    We loved every minute in this amazing home from home. It is very comfortable, everything made with love, well thought of details and equipped with everything you need. (There are even yoga mats).
    The location could not be better as it is very central and in walking distance to all sights, but on the other hand also very quiet with an relaxing atmosphere with the lovely garden. We can highly recommend it and hope to come back another time.

    Dear Doreen and Damon, thank you so much for your wonderful review ! We are delighted to have welcomed you as our first guests and to hear that you enjoyed Maison Aïga so much. We hope to see you again one day, perhaps in the summer so you can enjoy the pool. In the meantime, we wish you all the best. Warm regards, Charlotte and Nicolas
