Description

In the charming southwest, the motorhome area of Martres-Tolosane, located rue de Pages about 250 meters from the town center, welcomes you on a self-service basis for emptying, electrical connection, parking and water resupply. A short walk away, stroll through the weekly Tuesday morning market in front of the town hall where local producers offer fruits and vegetables, cheeses, cold meats, breads, pastries, a pizza truck, roast chicken and regional biscuits. Enjoy the town's friendly atmosphere — shops, restaurants and bars showcasing cassoulet, confit de canard, garbure, foie gras and duck breasts — and be tempted by the local wines (Fronton, Gaillac, Madiran). Art lovers can discover potters, sculptors, painters and ceramists in their studios and in several art galleries; an ideal setting for a self-sufficient and peaceful stay.

Martres-Tolosane is a small town in the southwest known for its artisanal history. Situated on the plain near the foothills of the Pyrenees, it retains a modest urban fabric and local shops.

The atmosphere remains provincial and friendly, ideal for a quiet stop between Toulouse and the mountains.

Heritage and history

The center preserves traces of an artisanal and commercial past, visible in some old buildings and in the street layout. There are arcaded houses and façades dating from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Local history is strongly linked to clay extraction and ceramics production, which shaped the town's economy for generations.
