"Balmont" is located on the top of a hill in les Monts du Lyonnais, a small mountain range southwest of Lyon. A tastefully renovated country farm house that sits above a hamlet of five houses, is completely private, has spectacular views and sunsets, this light-filled property is surrounded by quiet farm paths leading through rolling fields and magical, lush forests. The sky is filled with bright stars at night, unbelieveable!

This is also the city of the convergence of the Rhone River and the Saone River forming the peninsula known as the "Presqu'ile."
