Village Bord de Ciel can host residential seminars, team retreats, weddings and family gatherings for up to 120 seated guests, with beds for 184 people on the same site. The village stands above the medieval town of Caylus, in the east of Tarn-et-Garonne, and can be booked in full for a minimum of two nights.
Seminars and company events
The owners sell seminars, corporate days, integration weekends and team-building stays, with formulas adapted to each group. The main working room is the reception hall of 141 square meters, which seats up to 48 people for a meeting, a meal or a workshop. It has a TV, a flipchart, a video projector and a projection screen, and it can be heated in the cold months.
For a larger plenary or a less formal session, a 120-square-meter marquee set in a wooded field seats up to 120 people. It is open to the outside but covered, and it also has a projector and a screen. It stands next to the leisure areas: pétanque courts, volleyball, table tennis and the swimming pool.
Weddings and receptions
Bord de Ciel sells weddings organized entirely on site, with a separate wedding brochure. Couples can use the reception hall for a seated dinner or a cocktail, a 50-square-meter marquee on the terrace next to the hall for a drinks reception, a buffet or a lay ceremony, and the 120-square-meter marquee near the pool and the meadow for a banquet of up to 120 seated guests. A professional kitchen is available for caterers. The day after, the team can serve a brunch or a breakfast. The whole site is pedestrian and secured, which helps for weddings with children. The village also hosts birthdays, family reunions, clubs and associations.
Rooms and capacities
The site lists 310 square meters of space for private hire. The reception hall measures 141 square meters and extends onto a covered terrace of 50 square meters, which can be left open in summer or closed to add a sheltered work area. The hall takes up to 48 seated guests. The large marquee covers 120 square meters and seats up to 120. Outdoors, the village has 20,000 square meters of garden and four leisure areas.
Accommodation
Guests sleep in 35 independent cottages: 30 with two bedrooms and 5 with three bedrooms, for a maximum of 184 single beds. Each cottage has a kitchenette, a shower room with a separate toilet and, for most of them, a private terrace. A 120-square-meter pool is open from June to September. Other services include a games room with board games and a library, a laundry, a small grocery corner and a playground for children aged 2 to 8.
Catering
The team prepares and serves breakfasts and coffee breaks itself. Brunch, lunch and dinner are served either by the team or by partner caterers, on days and at times agreed in advance. Meals are offered to groups of more than 20 people. With the Échappée Libre formula, the group gets access to a fully equipped professional kitchen and a dishwashing area, so it can cook for itself or bring in its own caterer. A bar with a covered terrace at the edge of the woods opens mainly in summer, with local beers and wines.
History and setting
In 2020, Magali and her son Matthieu took over the village, then half abandoned, and restored it. The site overlooks the roofs of Caylus and the banks of the Bonnette, 10 minutes from the Gorges de l'Aveyron, close to the borders of the Aveyron, Tarn and Lot departments.
Getting there
The address is 115 Chemin de l'Escapade, 82160 Caylus. By road, the village is about 45 minutes from Montauban, 1 hour from Albi, Rodez and Cahors, and 1 hour 15 minutes from Toulouse.
