On the outskirts of Montaigu le Blin, one of the most beautiful villages in the Allier (Auvergne), you’ll find this little Romanesque church. The church has been transformed into an idyllic place to stay. The king-size four-poster bed is on wheels. You can place it in the enclosed Chapel of Our Lady or right in the middle of the little church. The bathroom features a rain shower and a sink. The toilet is in a separate room. The kitchen is equipped with an electric stovetop, a refrigerator, a coffee maker, and a kettle. The church has a garden divided into two sections with several small terraces. There, you can enjoy the privacy, the beautiful views, and the setting sun. You have the option to bring a tent and sleep on the lawn under the stars. The 12th-century Romanesque church in Ciernat, Montaigu-le-Blin, has been available for rent since this year for those who want to enjoy history and all modern amenities. It’s also possible to combine this rental with nature house 30644.

Nature and surroundings

. This village of 300 residents boasts six castles, an authentic town square, and several restaurants. It’s an ideal setting for hiking or biking. In this unspoiled, sparsely populated area, hikers and cyclists become part of the landscape. The Allier and Besbre rivers form a habitat for some 280 bird species, which is unique. On Sundays, there are several flea markets in the surrounding villages. Vichy and Moulins are nearby and well worth a visit.

    Very satisfied

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Staying in this little chapel in the French countryside was truly magical. In the morning, soft light poured through the paned glass windows and filled the room with a quiet, golden calm. Sleeping in the four-poster canopy bed felt like being transported to another century.

    At first, the religious artifacts can feel a little daunting, but a sense of purity and warmth quickly shines through. I felt supported by generations of people who came here to make themselves—and the world around them—a little better.

    The owners (Marie Josee & Frans) deserve special thanks for the love and care they poured into transforming this once-run-down relic into a heavenly retreat. Truly heaven on earth.

    The little church is located in a beautiful setting, near a charming little village.
    We found the owners to be very friendly and approachable.

    What an amazing experience—waking up in a four-poster bed in a little church.
    Surrounded by the serene atmosphere, it gives you a wonderful sense of peace and relaxation.
    Sitting at the dining table, you have a fantastic view of the fields.

    Sleeping in a centuries-old church is, of course, a truly unique and fantastic experience. It’s very atmospheric, with beautiful original details, and at the same time, it has everything you need. The space and atmosphere of the church, in particular, make it special. Definitely a stay you won’t soon forget!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    An incredibly special place, nestled in the heart of a beautiful and wonderfully peaceful setting. Lots of greenery, beautiful views, and plenty of space.
