Charming detached vacation home for 6 people. Located on the outskirts of a quiet village in a beautiful, varied setting. It has been in our family for over 20 years; we rent it out when we’re not there ourselves. Enjoy peace, space, and sweeping views of meadows and the vast oak forest, the Forêt de Tronçais. The spacious garden with fruit trees flows into a private meadow of about 1 hectare, bordered by hawthorn hedges and old oak trees. Relax at the picnic table under the chestnut tree, dine on the sunny terrace, or fire up the barbecue. Parking is available on the property. Inside: a cozy living room with a fireplace, an open kitchen fully equipped for cooking and baking, microwave, refrigerator, small freezer, toilet, 2 bathrooms (1 with shower and sink, 1 with sink and toilet), and 3 spacious bedrooms (1 on the ground floor, with garden door). Wi-Fi, games, books, magazines, cycling and hiking maps, and folders with tips are provided. A crib and high chair are available.
Nature and surroundings
Nature lovers will find plenty to enjoy here. Around the house, you’ll see songbirds and butterflies, and you’ll often see roe deer. In the fall, you can hear stags bellowing and watch cranes migrating overhead. The rolling, unspoiled countryside is perfect for hiking and biking. About 6 km away are two lakes where you can swim, fish, and spot ospreys. From the house, you can walk right into the Forêt de Tronçais, home to oak trees some of which are over 300 years old. The beautiful Allier River flows 15 km away. Here you can go canoeing and spot sand martins, bee-eaters, and storks. The vacation home is located on the outskirts of a small, quiet village. In the village, you’ll find a small restaurant where you can also order fresh bread for the next day. Supermarkets, equipped with EV fast chargers, are located about ten kilometers away. Enjoy lovely day trips to the historic Château d’Ainay-le-Vieil, the gardens of Parc Floral d’Apremont, cities like Moulins, Nevers, and Bourges, charming villages such as Souvigny, or the serene Noirlac Abbey.

A cozy little house with everything you need—the garden, in particular, is wonderful.
A washing machine would make it even more complete.Geriefelijk huisje met alles wat je nodig hebt, vooral de tuin is geweldig.
Een wasmachine zou het nog completer maken.A genuine little French farmhouse with a Dutch interior (lots of books available)
A lovely, huge garden with a chestnut tree where you can sit and enjoy the shade.Een echt Frans boerderijtje met Nederlands interieur (veel boeken beschikbaar)
Heerlijke enorme tuin met een kastanjeboom waar je lekker in de schaduw kunt zitten.This text is automatically translated. -

A lovely, cozy, spacious, and comfortable vacation home equipped with all the amenities! Plenty of privacy and a wonderful view from the garden!
Fijn, gezellig, ruim en knus vakantiehuis dat van alle gemakken is voorzien! Veel privacy en een heerlijk uitzicht in de tuin!
Plenty of peace and space around the house. The surroundings are somewhat desolate, with villages that seem to be sleeping. It’s nice to have a lake nearby for swimming. A visit to Street Art City is more than worth it. Bourges is within easy reach. A city with a great vibe.
Veel rust en ruimte om het huis. Omgeving enigszins desolaat met ogenschijnlijk slapende dorpjes. Wel fijn meer in de buurt om in te zwemmen. Bezoekje aan Street Art City meer dan de moeite waard. Bourges op afzienbare afstand bereikbaar. Een stad met leuke vibes

Comfortable cottage, cozy. dishwasher is not there, but cozy together washing dishes only enhances the vacation feeling. Outside plenty of space and privacy. And within walking distance of the hotel where you can get fresh pain & croissants in the morning. Plenty to do in the area, within a half hour drive. In the immediate vicinity is great for hiking and bird watching!
Comfortabel huisje, gezellig ingericht.
Vaatwasser is er niet, maar gezellig samen afwassen versterkt alleen maar het vakantiegevoel.
Buiten alle ruimte en privacy. En op loopafstand het hotel waar je 's morgens verse pain & croissants kan halen.
Genoeg te beleven in de omgeving, binnen een half uur rijden. In de directe omgeving is het heerlijk wandelen en vogels kijken!Lovely quiet place, lots of space around you. In the distance a braying donkey, in the grass countless crickets. In the morning sun the butterflies flutter by, as dusk fills in, the bats skim past as the Milky Way slowly becomes visible in the night sky.
Heerijk rustige plek, veel ruimte om je heen. In de verte een balkende ezel, in het gras talloze krekels. In de ochtendzon fladderen de vlinders langs, bij het invullen van de schemering scheren de vleermuisjes langs terwijl de Melkweg langzaam zichtbaar wordt aan de nachtelijke hemel.
