Villa Caormina to open in 2025
In the summer of 2025, we're delighted to be welcoming 8 cyclists registered for the European Bike Touring Week from 5 to 12 July.
The scale of the event and its meticulous organisation are impressive. This gathering of thousands of cyclists from all over France and Europe will almost double the population of Prayssac. We had to rise to the challenge of accommodating all these people in spikes! Villa Caormina is now fully booked, a splendid opportunity to launch our business in 2025.
