From the hot tub see the deer running and hear the tawny owl calling! This is possible in this quietly located nature house in the French countryside. In February 2010, the landlords bought a 200-year-old fermette in Le Vinteol, a hamlet with three houses in the Creuse. They have since turned it into a comfortable house. The house is particularly quiet, surrounded by farmland, at an altitude of over 600 meters. Here you can still enjoy the peace and quiet of the French countryside. At night you can see countless stars in the sky. The house is fully equipped and furnished for up to six people. Downstairs there are the large kitchen and separate living room with a passage to the outdoor kitchen. From the living room the stairs lead to the three bedrooms, bathroom and toilet. The bedrooms are all furnished for two persons. Upstairs is playfully decorated with several little stairs. To get the house warm, there is a wood stove in the kitchen and a pellet stove in the living room.

Nature and surroundings

The house is located at 640 meters altitude near the village of Dontreix. Located in the department of the Creuse. The Creuse is characterized by forests and the many lakes. The Creuse is one of the least densely populated regions of France. Dontreix has an average of 9.2 inhabitants per km², compared to 450 in the Netherlands. The region is still authentically French with mainly agricultural activities. Larger cities nearby are Montlucon and Clermond-Ferrand, with a beautiful basilica. You can make the most beautiful walks and bike rides in the area and one hour away is a winter sports area, Le Mont Dore. Within half an hour there are several swimming and fishing lakes. In the house is a folder with various walks, also directly from the house, and information on all attractions. From the garden you can see and hear many birds, such as the tawny owl, barn owl and various species of woodpeckers. The landlords also regularly see deer, boar or a fox.

    You can really unwind here. The communication with the owners was excellent.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A beautiful house, fully equipped. Right in the middle of the countryside. Total silence and darkness. The sound of birds and the activity of the many species of butterflies and bees.

    Very tastefully renovated, beautifully furnished. The summer kitchen is great on both warm and rainy days! The communication with the hosts is excellent.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is in an absolutely quiet location, surrounded by a large garden. The hilly landscape is very beautiful and easy to explore by e-bike. Some pretty little villages and a bathing lake are about 30' away by car.

    A beautiful garden that makes you totally unwind. Great with the hot tub included. The outdoor kitchen was a plus, as you can stay bright in not so good weather.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The Limousin is a wonderfully quiet region. The cottage was therefore in a secluded spot so the peace immediately descended upon you.
