Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France

In Auvergne, the green heart of France some 893 kilometers from Utrecht, lies this charming two-person cottage overlooking one of France's highest railroad bridges. No more trains pass here, but the peace of 'la campagne' reigns. This cottage used to serve as the staff quarters of the adjacent railroad hotel, which is now a large vacation home. This blue cottage is now a compact but complete vacation home with its own terrace and garden with barbecue, shower, toilet, kitchen and living/sleeping area. In the evening the wood stove is lit. Via stairs you step into the cozy high bed, sleeping romantically under the sloping roof. In the morning you wake up to the sound of birds singing.
Nature and surroundings
This is pure France in the region of mountains, lakes, rivers and volcanic mountains (Unesco nature reserve), of which the Puy de Dôme (1465 meters) is the most famous. A beautiful environment for nature lovers, hikers and mountain biking. Close to home there are several beaches, but also hidden places where you can swim or fish in peace. In the region, visit one of the many cheese makers or water mills. Every day of the week there is a market in the area where regional products are sold, such as the many cheeses that come from here, such as Bleu d'Auvergne. Nearby are the cities of Clermont-Ferrand and the spring water town of Vichy, as well as some of the country's most beautiful medieval towns. In less warm periods of the year, the cottage is easy to keep warm with the wood stove and radiators, making it suitable for all seasons. Not suitable for people with reduced mobility.

We were warmly welcomed by our host. He gave us lots of tips for outings.
The house is lovely—small but perfect for two people. It’s nicely decorated, and it has everything you need. It’s a true nature house right in the middle of nature. So don’t be surprised if nature makes its way inside every now and then.We werden hartelijk ontvangen door de gastheer. Hij gaf ons veel tips voor uitstapjes.
Het huis is heerlijk, klein maar perfect voor twee personen. Leuk ingericht. Alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt. Een echt natuurhuisje midden in de natuur. Je moet dan ook niet raar opkijken als de natuur af en toe ook binnen komt.Surrounded by nature with a fantastic view of the railroad viaduct, the valley, and the overgrown embankment on the other side. It’s wonderful to watch birds from the terrace. It’s quiet there—very, very quiet—except for the birdsong and the owls calling to each other at night. It’s dark, too. So many stars—you can even see the Milky Way. There are charming little villages nearby. We mostly went hiking. You can start right from the cottage, or head out a few kilometers (or a little farther).
Midden in de natuur met een fantastisch uitzicht op het spoorviaduct, het dal en de begroeide heling aan de andere kant. Heerlijk vogels kijken vanaf het terras. Het is er stil, heel erg stil. Op de vogel geluiden na en de uilen die elkaar 'snachts roepen. Donker is het ook. Zoveel sterren en zelfs de melkweg is zichtbaar. Leuke dorpjes in de buurt. Wij hebben vooral gewandeld. Dat kan al vanaf het huisje en anders op een paar km (of iets verder).

Zeer vriendelijke gastheer.
Klein huisje, eenvoudig, maar niets gemist. Enorm genoten van houtkachel na hele dag op pad te zijn geweest.Lovely silence
Heerlijke stilte
