Péguilhan is a commune in the Haute-Garonne department in southwestern France in the historical region of Gascony. On 1 January 2017, the former commune of Lunax was merged into Péguilhan.
Péguilhan has far-reaching views towards the Pyrenees. It is surrounded by woodland and open countryside and a mixture of arable and livestock farming. Some houses in the area have been bought by British incomers, although the majority in recent times have been Dutch and German.
