La Grande Bruyère

Exceptional setting & landscaped site! Agricultural outbuilding carefully revisited into a comfortable holiday home (still housing the barn & stable) nestled in the countryside on a vast 3 ha property with a shared heated swimming pool (4x8m) - converted into a "micro-farm" welcoming animals - located 12 km from the charming medieval and spa town of Bourbon-Lancy (all amenities & numerous leisure facilities on site including a casino). Total calm & tranquility immersed in the hollow of a sublime preserved setting of nature & greenery, vast hilly bocage clearing nestled in the heart of a beautiful forest, adjoining the banks of the Loire (the last "wild river" in Europe / site protected area classified as a “Natura 2000 Zone” for its remarkable ecosystem). Ideally located on the routes of the Romanesque church circuit, a referenced cycle route (linked to the greenway), several marked footpaths in "green walks" (550 km of paths & more than 200 hiking circuits to discover on territory), 6 km from the greenway (connected to EuroVélo6), 9 km from the mythical GTMC mountain bike circuit (Grande Traversée du Massif Centrale) and 17 km from the Digoin river marina connected to the "canal du centre” & “quiet canal” (linking Digoin to Roanne). Prime location at the very southern tip of Burgundy, at the crossroads of the departments of Allier, Loire & Nièvre, on the borders of the magnificent territory of Charolais-Brionnais - cradle of AOC cattle and sheep breeds of world renown - rich in sumptuous preserved landscapes and an exceptional historical heritage (labeled “Pays d'Art et d'Histoire”), at the crossroads of Autunois-Morvan, Sologne & Montagne Bourbonnaise and Pays Roannais. Perfect address to shine: 21 km from the very famous PAL amusement park, 29 km from Paray-le-Monial (illustrious basilica), 38 km from Luzy, 43 km from Charolles, 43 km from Marcigny ("Clunisois site" famous for its Monday morning market created in 1266) & 46 km from Moulin. Possibility to rent the 2 lodgings of the house (direct communication with n°3064), for an overall capacity of 7 people. The perfect “spot” for a soothing & rejuvenating green setting, literally out of time! A true little paradise on earth for young and old alike!
