la Tour

Raphaëlle welcomes you to a lovely authentic 15th century character barn, steeped in history & carefully restored, quietly located on a large family property of 10 ha (formerly a "stronghold" with a fortified castle, a historic estate of which an elegant & exotic guard tower) made up of several buildings, all perfectly renovated, nestled like a star around a large interior courtyard. Total tranquility in the countryside, in the heart of a mini rural hamlet nestled in the hollow of the bucolic Charolais bocage, on a vast "open" plateau of pastures & meadows (with the famous "local" cows as peaceful neighbours), two steps from a beautiful unspoiled forest. Very comfortable cottage. Ultra spacious. Vast very rare 80m² living room enhanced by unusual original vaulted brick ceilings ("voûtins"). Warm country character in the spirit of a sweet "family home". Lots of charm and character. Very complete equipment (especially for children). Pleasant garden offering a magnificent unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside, without any vis-à-vis, with an atypical & very beautiful natural swimming pool (8x4m). You also enjoy a pétanque court & an orchard for the pleasure of fresh & "organic" fruit during your stay (apple trees, pear trees, fig trees, etc.). Composition: Detached house next to a second gite (total independence). Wireless. Oil fired central heating + fireplace (pleasure fire only).
