La Ferme de la Terve

Between town & country, close to all amenities! Comfortable self-catering cottage nestled in a delightful contemporary extension to an elegant 19th-century Bresse farmhouse, fully restored to the highest standards, set on a beautifully manicured 5,000m² property 4 km from Louhans, the famous capital of the Bresse region known for its iconic medieval shopping street with its 157 arcades (one of the most remarkable of its kind in France and Europe) and for its famous Monday market, which has been awarded the "Site remarquable du goût" label. A small rural hamlet nestled in the heart of the countryside, in a pleasant landscape of meadows & forests, a stone's throw from a nature trail marked out as a "balade verte" (a very rich network of other hiking trails of the same type to discover in the surrounding area), not far from the Romanesque church circuit & the lower Seille valley (a natural site classified as a "Natura 2000 Zone" for its remarkable ecosystem), 2 km from a communal mountain bike circuit, 2.5 km from the "voie verte" & 4 km from a "boucle Vélo Coup de Cœur" cycling itinerary (35 km). A prime location in the heart of Bresse Louhannaise & Bourguignonne - birthplace of the renowned AOC Bresse poultry - a superb, unspoiled region with varied, contrasting landscapes, alternating between bocage plains and the mountainous foothills of the nearby Jura massif, at the crossroads of the Chalonnais, Bresse and Jura regions, the Mâconnais-Clunisois (part of which has the "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire" label) & the Bresse de l'Ain, close to both the world-renowned vineyards of southern Burgundy (Côtes Mâconnaises, Côtes Chalonnaises & Côtes de Beaune) and the vineyards of the Jura (various wine routes to explore). Ideally located at the crossroads of Ain & Jura (A39 at 11km), 20 km from the Bresse racetrack (multi-activity car, motorcycle and karting on 48 ha), 19 km from Cuiseaux ("the Painters' Village"), 24 km from Cuisery ("the Book Village"), 26 km from Lons-le-Saunier, 32 km from Tournus, 44 km from Verdun sur-le-Doubs (& its river marina at the confluence of the Doubs & Saône rivers), 45 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (classified as a "Ville d'Art & d'Histoire"), 50 km from Seurre & Bourg-en-Bresse. A choice address for a soothing change of scenery, just a stone's throw from a host of leisure facilities, shops and services!
