Nature and surroundings
The cottage is especially suited for people who love peace and nature and are looking for a low-stimulus environment. Unlike most houses from that era, the farmhouse stands completely alone, with the nearest homes about 500 meters away. True silence! The complete darkness of night provides a sharp view of the Milky Way and countless stars. The house is located at an elevation of 1,040 meters in the Livradois-Forez Nature Park (municipality of Saint-Germain-L’Herm, Puy-de-Dôme department). This park consists of protected natural landscapes with a rich and diverse array of flora and fauna. Forests, hills, and volcanoes alternate with sweeping, green valleys and heathlands. The surrounding area is ideal for hiking and biking enthusiasts. During the season—September/October—the forests around the house are full of edible mushrooms such as chanterelles and porcini. This period offers beautiful late-summer weather.

The cottage isn't big, but it does have an outdoor seating area and a large orchard; it's a great spot for hikers.
Het huisje is niet groot, wel met een buitenzitje.en een grote boomgaard het is wel een top lokatie voor wandelaars.
A lovely little cottage and it has all the amenities you could want. A small but well-equipped kitchen, a nice shower, and a big TV with lots of DVDs. The friendly owner gave us a great list of markets and hiking trails.
The VIVAL grocery store in Germain-l-Herm sells that delicious Salers cheese from Auvergne—you’ve got to try it.een heerlijk huisje en echt van alle gemakken voorzien. kleine maar goed ingerichte keuken, fijne douche en grote TV met heel veel DVD s. Wij kregen van de aardige eigenaar een prima lijst met markten en wandelingen.

Everything present. Very cozy.
Alles aanwezig. Zeer sfeervol.
I have been there before - then the cottage belonged to a different owner - but the atmosphere and comfort were as before and the host was perfect: kind, welcoming and very relaxed.
Ik ben er al eerder geweest - toen was het huisje nog van een andere eigenaar - maar de sfeer en het comfort waren als vanouds en de gastheer was perfect: aardig, gastvrij en zeer relaxed.

Complete furnishings, cozy. Quite dark, but when the weather is nice you can sit outside.
Complete inrichting, gezellig. Wel vrij donker, maar bij mooi weer kun je fijn buiten zitten.
Well cared for cottage in the middle of the woods.
Goed verzorgd huisje midden in de bossen.
