Detached nature house with grandiose panoramic views over the valleys of the Orb and Jaur, at the far edge of the small, picturesque village of Saint-Martin-de-l'Arçon, located in the Parc Régional Naturel de Haut-Languedoc. Ideal for nature lovers, peace seekers and hikers. The four terraces and the small garden with cherry tree offer complete privacy. Small living room with large authentic fireplace, original stone floor, open wood stove and French doors to the terraces in front of the house. Modern kitchen with electric hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, oven, microwave and Nesspresso machine. Bathroom with shower, toilet and washing machine. From the living room a stone staircase leads to the first floor with two bedrooms, one with double bed and one with two single beds. Location of the terraces in front of the house south-southwest; here you catch plenty of sun, moon and stars. The largest terrace is sufficiently shaded by the ash tree ("le frêne").

Nature and surroundings

Saint-Martin lies against the southern flank of the Caroux, say the southernmost spur of the Massif Central. The region is part of the Parc Régional Naturel de Haut-Langedoc, a natural park about the size of the province of Groningen and characterized by great geological, ecological and landscape diversity. Its location in the natural park means, among other things: no highways, no industry, virtually no stray light (starry skies!) and a variety of large and small game (mouflons, wild boars, salamanders...). Saint-Martin is a well-known base for hikers. Several hiking trails pass through the village; one of them leads along the famous Gorge d'Héric, where there is also a lot of climbing. Another through the less touristy but actually more beautiful Gorge de Colombières. In the river Orb you can swim and canoe. The sea is about an hour's drive away.

    "It's just a 'natuurhuisje,'" so nature—in the form of four-, six-, and eight-legged creatures—sometimes makes a bit of a surprise visit inside the house.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A very relaxing, quiet, and pleasant retreat. The terrace is magnificent!
