Nature house in Le Bourg d'Hem
New Aquitaine, France

This nature house, located in a rural setting where time stands still, is an oasis of silence and beauty. The recently refurbished century-old house makes you feel at home immediately. The cozy decor, the views from every window and the great silence will make you relax immediately. The spacious kitchen is fully equipped and is for many the favorite place in the house. In the living room you can sit after a relaxing sauna, read a book, stare at the wood stove, or sleep on the double sofa bed. The bedroom has a double bed (with extra top mattress) that we can also set apart for you to make two separate beds. The wood stoves keep the house wonderfully warm. The thick walls provide ideal mass for warmth in winter and coolness in summer. And of course in October to June the wood-fired sauna! This is just steps away. The house itself is located at the end of a cul-de-sac with beautiful views over the countryside.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located in the "Vallée des Peintres," an area where painters like Monet came to paint the special light of the landscape. You are surrounded by forests, fields, and rivers, small villages and narrow winding roads. You can hear the Creuse River flowing, that's how quiet it can be - and that's how close the Creuse is. Here you are in no time for a cooling dip, for sunbathing or hiking. At the waterfront restaurant "Au z'Amis du Lac," you can enjoy lunch or dinner in the evening. Due to the pure air and remote location, starry nights are impressive, and sunrise and sunset something to look forward to. The area has beautiful walks and bike trails, on old paths between fields or through the forest. This part of France is not so touristy yet, so the interesting places and sights can be visited quietly. If you are looking forward to a vacation in a complete "change of scenery," then this is the ideal cottage!

We really found the house a very nice place to be, whatever the weather. It is cozy, spacious, and furnished with great attention to detail. And complete. Really a place to unwind. There is a nice stove in the living room. And the wood stove in the kitchen is a super nice experience to fire up and cook on. (By the way, there is also a "normal" gas stove.) And then Thijs is also a very pleasant host. Really a big recommendation from our side!
Wij vonden het huis echt een heel fijne plek om te zijn, wat voor weer het ook is. Het is sfeervol, ruim, en met veel aandacht voor detail ingericht. En compleet. Echt een plek om tot rust te komen.
Er is een lekkere kachel in de woonkamer. En het houtfornuis in de keuken is een superleuke ervaring om op te stoken en op te koken. (Er is overigens ook een 'gewoon' gasfornuis.)
En dan is Thijs ook nog eens een heel prettige gastheer.
Echt een dikke aanbeveling van onze kant!This is really a very nice place to stay. Enormous peace and quiet around the house; a delight. If you like bird watching (and listening!), you will also find plenty to enjoy. From the cottage you can walk in different directions. A sauna with green views!
Dit is werkelijk een héél fijne plek om te vertoeven. Enorm veel rust om het huis; een genot. Als je houdt van vogels kijken (en luisteren!), kom je ook volop aan je trekken.
Vanaf het huisje kun je verschillende kanten op wandelen.
