Gîte des Avaizes***

Lætitia & Fabien welcome you to an authentic traditional farmhouse dating from the 18th century, fully restored & revisited as a gentle holiday resort, nestled in the peace and quiet on a southwest-facing hillside, along a small road, in a picturesque rural residential mini-hamlet. Magnificent landscaped setting all around, totally restful & relaxing, nestled in the heart of the Brionnais countryside of gentle rolling mountains (in a natural area protected as a ZNIEFF for its rich fauna & flora), in the hollow of a green valley of wooded meadows crossed by a small river (home to the peaceful & famous local Charolais cows in season), surrounded by beautiful & vast wild forests (to be explored during relaxing walks or mountain bike rides). Peace and quiet in the heart of a peaceful, unspoiled rural setting, blending agriculture and nature, nestled at the foot of the famous Montagne de Dun, steeped in legends and mysteries (the highest point in the area at 736m), an exceptional 360° panoramic sentinel (offering an unmissable view of up to 35 bell towers on a clear day) and a site steeped in history (particularly Celtic) housing an elegant 12th-century Romanesque chapel at its summit. Comfortable cottage converted into the former stables. Warm, country character with contemporary accents. Pleasant, large panoramic terrace (planted and flowered) backing onto a small enclosed courtyard (located "in the shade" of an old turret dovecote), offering a beautiful unobstructed view of the hamlet and the surrounding countryside (including the nearby pastures).
