Discover peace, space, and stunning nature in this eco-friendly nature house. It’s situated in a secluded location among forests and meadows. The nature house was sustainably built using locally sourced oak and is heated by solar panels, a heat pump (which also provides air conditioning), or a wood stove. The owners fell in love with this unspoiled area forty years ago and started an organic farm here. Located 800 meters from the farm is this gîte (130 m²) with a playroom and garage. The gîte was handcrafted by the owners themselves: from the sturdy trusses, the roof, and the exterior walls to various pieces of furniture. Inside, you’ll enjoy a natural travertine floor with comfortable underfloor heating; outside, a fenced-in garden of 1,000 m² awaits, offering sweeping views. The property is suitable for all ages; baby amenities are available upon request. Dogs are welcome (up to two; more upon request). Experience pure tranquility and the great outdoors in a unique setting created with love and craftsmanship.

Nature and surroundings

This nature house is located on the Plateau de l’Artense, an unspoiled area covering 455 km² at an elevation of 600 to 1,000 meters. This paradise for nature lovers takes you along numerous trails through forests and meadows, past centuries-old rocky paths, moss-covered walls, and streams, all the way to the Sancy mountain range. The area is densely forested with beech, pine, and oak trees, which support a rich variety of wildlife. With a bit of luck, you might spot red deer, roe deer, wild boars, badgers, and birds of prey such as the red kite and the buzzard. For active guests, there’s plenty to do: from biking, swimming, climbing, and horseback riding in the summer to skiing in the winter. Culture lovers will be delighted by the region’s ancient Romanesque churches and castles. Although the plateau is made of granite, the Auvergne is a volcanic region. In the northeast, rising among the mountains, is the Puy de Sancy (1,886 m)—the highest volcano in France. Of course, you can also simply stay at the cottage to enjoy nature in peace and quiet.

    Had a wonderful week in this house.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Lovely vacation home in the middle of nowhere. Fully equipped for a comfortable stay in nature with all the tranquility. Very guest friendly and helpful owners. Very nice to feed your leftovers to the chickens. Beautiful hiking trail that starts from the village within walking distance of the house, 8km with quite a bit of altitude meters. From Cros also beautiful hiking trails available. From the house are also 2 routes plotted by the owner. One to a swimming spot on the creek, very nice. Just before the house a beautiful fire salamander seen
