Les Gourmets - COUCHES

Florian welcomes you to a charming holiday retreat housed in an elegant, characterful 19th-century bourgeois residence, fully restored and steeped in history (formerly the village tax office), nestled in the heart of a picturesque, picture-postcard village. Couches, a charming medieval and wine-growing village situated on the route of the ancient Roman road, the Via Agrippa, boasts an exceptional heritage (including the magnificent 13th-century castle of Queen Marguerite of Burgundy, located nearby), numerous amenities, and enjoys a stunning, gently rolling landscape, nestled in the heart of a peaceful, unspoiled wine country within a bucolic valley that blends vineyard slopes, hedged meadows, and beautiful wild forests, all within a protected ZNIEFF area (for its rich flora and fauna). The cottage offers comfortable accommodation with a beautiful, spacious, and bright living area. A warm, cozy, and inviting "contemporary country" style. A decidedly zen and peaceful atmosphere. A spacious, intimate shaded terrace (under a canvas awning) nestled in the "inner courtyard" at the rear of the house, overlooked by a pleasant, panoramic, grassy, and flower-filled garden, adjacent to the majestic "Tour Guerin" (a 16th-century manor house, an iconic historical landmark).
