About this property
Charming Country House with Private Pool, Spa, Sauna, and Historic Features
Discover this ideal cottage for 9 people
This 250 m² former Forez farmhouse on two levels combines the charm of old materials with modern comfort. It features four bedrooms (3 double beds, 3 single beds) with comfortable bedding, a large winter living room with a fireplace, a summer living room, a dining room, and three bathrooms. The fully equipped kitchen opens onto several terraces perfect for al fresco dining. You'll also appreciate its 2,200 m² garden, equipped with a gas and wood-burning barbecue. Its wellness area with a spa and sauna (optional), and its private heated swimming pool (May 15th to September 15th). Sheets, towels, and beds made upon arrival are all included for a peaceful stay. Children's games, 200 comics, books, mountain bikes, table tennis, darts, and baby equipment are provided.
Warm welcome from the owner on site.
Access to the spa (€150) and sauna (€190) is available upon request from the owner. A charming 9-person cottage nestled in a green setting in the heart of the Montagnes du Matin (Matin Mountains) captivates with its bucolic setting and peaceful atmosphere. Meadows, rose gardens, wisteria, old oak trees, and rolling hills make up the landscape. A secluded retreat where you feel far from everything, yet close to what matters most. Come escape the heatwave, noise, pollution, crowds, and concrete.
Enjoy a natural immersion between the Forez, Beaujolais, and Monts du Lyonnais regions. A few kilometers away, explore the marked trails on foot, mountain bike, or horseback. Explore the medieval villages of Salt-en-Donzy or Chazelles-sur-Lyon, visit local farms, or discover regional castles and museums. For families, treetop adventure parks, barefoot trails, corn mazes, and animal parks await you within 40 km.

Your host:
I collect or rummage through old objects and old agricultural or craft tools. For over 40 years I have been restoring an old farm in the Monts du Lyonnais, which houses the cottage, to restore its former glory using noble and old materials: oak, stone, lime, terracotta tiles, etc. Local granite stone is omnipresent. I cut it, I bush hammer it, I build (dry) stone walls, where you can hardly see the cement, I have redone a porch, fireplaces, stone jambs, etc. I am always happy to answer questions from tenants who are interested in the past and inexhaustible for those looking for a cottage with a real history and soul.
End of stay cleaning is included.
