Spacious gîte with 2 bedrooms and parking near Pilat Park
Housed in a converted stone farmhouse, the La Basse Cour gîte offers 110 m² of living space spread over two levels. From the moment you enter, the exposed stone walls, wooden features, and generous proportions create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The spacious 55 m² living area combines a fully equipped kitchen, a convivial dining area, and a comfortable lounge. A striking detail catches the eye: the worktop crafted from the refractory stones of the farm's bread oven.
The gîte has a ground-floor bedroom with a 140 cm double bed, as well as a shower room and toilet nearby. Upstairs, a second bedroom sleeps three: two 90 cm beds and one 120 cm bed. A second lounge provides a relaxing space for everyone and opens directly onto a private 12 m² patio. Free Wi-Fi, a dishwasher, washing machine, television, baby equipment, electric heating, and private parking for two vehicles complete the comfort of this holiday home, designed for families or groups of friends. Located on the edge of the Pilat Regional Natural Park, this holiday home enjoys a privileged location for a true escape. Just steps from the door, hiking trails invite you to explore the rolling landscapes of the massif, winding through forests, meadows, and offering remarkable panoramic views. Outdoor enthusiasts will also appreciate the geocaching trails, climbing sites just a few kilometers away, and fishing spots located nearby.
Exploring the region continues with a visit to the Maison des Tresses et Lacets (House of Braids and Laces), a testament to the rich local textile heritage, or by sampling the local flavors offered in the surrounding farm inns. The cottage's location also provides easy access to Saint-Étienne and Lyon, allowing you to enjoy a variety of experiences combining nature, culture, and gastronomy.

Your host: Over 20 years ago, we decided to change our lives and join the family farm. We were driven by the desire to be part of sustainable agriculture, respectful of the environment and close to the consumer.
Today, our farm, which focuses heavily on direct sales, supplies five farmers' markets with poultry and poultry-based prepared products, as well as dairy products. We also cook our own products for the menu at our farm-inn. Our business provides employment for 10 people, all thanks to small, human-scale operations. We can say we've achieved our goal!
But we don't stop there: a few years ago, we partnered with neighboring farmers to create a methanization unit to transform our animal manure into natural gas. Less greenhouse gas, renewable energy for the stove, less odor—it's a win-win!
Our gîtes also reflect this commitment to sustainability and community: they have given a second life to former farm buildings and allow us to welcome many visitors with whom we enjoy building relationships. We love hosting our guests and sharing good food with them (we have a real sweet tooth!). Finally, we are both deeply involved in representing our profession, advocating for our ideas and those of our colleagues, and working, in our own small way, towards a sustainable and equitable future.
