Beautifully restored 18th-century farmhouse steeped in history, nestled in the heart of the countryside in a magnificent, unspoilt setting of nature and greenery. Absolute peace and quiet in the heart of the bocage countryside, on the edge of fields, forests and meadows (with only the famous Charolais cattle grazing peacefully as neighbors). An absolutely magical setting and site, bordering the Loire - one of, if not the last wild rivers in Europe - classified as a Natura 2000 zone (Val de Loire). The rare privilege of being able to observe wildlife (deer, hares, ducks...) including numerous birds (cormorants, herons, egrets, coots, wild geese...). Spacious, comfortable gîte.
