Pets not allowed
A delightful stay: a rustic-chic getaway in the French countryside at a centuries-old farmhouse on the edge of a fairytale-like primeval forest where a stream flows, rare orchids grow, and medicinal plants abound. The lovely, spacious garden with its cherry orchard overlooks the flower-filled meadow where horses graze, and the little castle provides a stunning backdrop. The Allier River—Europe’s last freely meandering river, where wild salmon still swim—is within walking distance; we’ll let you in on our favorite secret beach! Or you can simply take a dip in the castle’s swimming pool. Besides the view, the peace, and the space, there’s so much beauty to discover: stunning nature, historic towns, wineries, markets with delicious food, and flea markets. The farmhouse is a charming, spacious 4-person cottage where 2 cribs can be added upon request. Marco is a craftsman specializing in authentic construction, and Muriel is a classical homeopath and goldsmith. We speak French, Dutch, English, and German.
Nature and surroundings
The Allier River, with its swimming beach, is within walking distance, and in addition to the views, tranquility, and open spaces, there is so much beauty to discover: stunning nature, historic towns, wineries, and markets offering delicious food or vintage items. For active guests, there are walking, cycling, and mountain biking trails; you can go hiking, canoeing, rafting, and swimming in the river, as well as horseback riding, and the Magny-Cours race track is just a short drive away. The authentic medieval “flower village” of Appremont-sur-Allier, with its beautiful castle gardens, is definitely worth a visit, as is Europe’s oldest oak forest, the Tronçais Forest. Highly recommended: a wine tasting at one of Livry’s two wineries! We have a great bakery in Livry, and the nearest supermarket is in Saint-Pierre-le-Moutier, just a 10-minute drive away. There, you can fill up your gas tank or charge your electric car using a fast charger. Moulins is a beautiful old town with a wonderful restaurant by the river: Le Bivouak.
