About this property

13th Century Character Cottage with Fireplace and Wi-Fi

At an altitude of 980 meters, Foumourette welcomes you to a remarkable 13th-century fortified house, fully restored with respect for its history. This independent 63 m² cottage combines the charm of ancient stone with the comfort of modern accommodations. From the raised ground floor, you'll discover a pleasant living area encompassing a dining space, a fully equipped kitchen, and a warm lounge with a fireplace and original woodwork that speaks to the building's past. The first bedroom has a 140 cm double bed and can accommodate a cot. An elegant quarter-turn staircase leads to the second bedroom, located in the historic part of the house at the foot of the medieval tower, with two 120 cm beds. The toilet is accessible from this unique space, which adds to the cottage's character. A dishwasher, washing machine, television, DVD player, Wi-Fi, central heating, a private enclosed garden, and a barbecue complete the amenities for a comfortable stay in any season. A stay in Foumourette offers a peaceful escape amidst the unspoiled landscapes of the Pilat Regional Natural Park. From the moment you step outside, marked trails beckon you to explore the forests, ridges, and sweeping panoramas that have made this area famous. Hiking enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity of the GR7 long-distance footpath and the Way of St. James (10 km), while mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and nature lovers will find their playground here. Between rural heritage, charming villages, local cuisine, and wide-open spaces, each day offers its own unique discoveries. Located in the Loire department, this holiday home also benefits from the village shops being within walking distance – a rare advantage for combining tranquility and convenience. In the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, this historically rich location provides an ideal setting for rejuvenation, family holidays, and relaxing weekends away from it all. The warm welcome from the owners and the quality of the building's restoration contribute to an authentic and memorable experience.
