Videlina

La petite maison dans la prairie! Delightful traditional farmhouse dating from 1900, carefully restored & revisited as a gentle holiday retreat, nestled in the quiet Charolais countryside (largely protected as a ZNIEFF for its rich ecosystems), in the heart of the sublime local bocage, very close to various vast wild forests, 10 km from Paray-le-Monial, the illustrious sanctuary city of the Sacred Heart (all amenities on site, including supermarkets). Absolute tranquility nestled in a peaceful, scattered rural hamlet, adjacent to the famous Canal du Centre (discover it by boat or on foot), in a magnificent, unspoilt natural setting of rolling pastures, dotted with numerous signposted footpaths (including a rich network of "balades vertes" to discover on foot or by mountain bike), ideally situated on the route of the Romanesque church circuit & of a 63 km referenced "boucle vélo coup de cœur" (another 49 km itinerary accessible at 10 km), 600m from the EuroVélo6 cycle route linked to the "Tour de Bourgogne à Vélo" (along the Canal du Centre), 7 km from the Voie Verte "Véloire" along the Loire, Europe's last wild river (protected as a "Zone Natura 2000") linked to the "Cycloroute71" (Tour de Saône et Loire à vélo), about 50 km from the vineyards of the Mâconnais and Côtes Chalonnaises & 60 km from the Côtes Roannaises (various wine routes to explore, including the "Route des Vins de Bourgogne" & the "Route des Grands Vins"). Location of choice, at the crossroads of the Allier & Loire rivers, in the heart of the magnificent Charolais-Brionnais region (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire" / cradle of the world-renowned AOC cattle breed), a land of gastronomy rich in sublime landscapes & an exceptional historical heritage, at the crossroads of the Mâconnais, the Clunisois-Tournugeois (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"), the Chalonnais and the Beaujolais (first Vineyard in the world to be recognized as a "UNESCO World Geopark"), not far from the Sologne & Mountain Bourbonnaise and the Pays Roannais.

Lætitia & Guy (show pigeon breeders who can show you around their imposing aviaries) welcome you to a delightful, carefully restored traditional 1900 farmhouse (built with stones from the sumptuous neighboring château de Digoine, some of which are still encrusted with unusual fossils on the garden side), nestled in the peace and quiet of a scattered rural hamlet on the banks of the Canal du Centre, in the heart of the unspoilt Charolais Countryside (protected as a ZNIEFF for its wealth of flora & fauna). Absolute tranquility, in the heart of the sublime local bocage (with the famous Charolais cows and/or horses as privileged neighbors depending on the season), close to beautiful wild forests, in the hollow of a magnificent landscaped setting. Spacious, comfortable Holiday cottage. Warm country charm with contemporary accents, enhanced by the soul of the original building (fireplace mantle, authentic sink, stone walls, door & window lintels, French beams & ceilings, roof frame...).

Large sheltered terrace opening onto 300m² of enclosed grounds (electric gate) including a large landscaped courtyard, a real "natural petanque court", the owners' vegetable garden (not visited during your stay / seasonal vegetables can be picked) & an enclosed pasture hosting their peaceful "Ouessan dwarf sheep".
