About this property

Charming Countryside Retreat with Spa - Near Vineyards and Castles

In the wine-growing village of Nueil-sur-Layon, this single-story cottage for 4 people invites you to a peaceful stay, combining relaxation and cultural discoveries. Just a few minutes away, explore the iconic sites of the Saumur region, such as the Bioparc and Roseraie de Doué, the Cadre Noir de Saumur, or the Château de Montreuil-Bellay. Stroll through the Layon Valley, its endless vineyards, its picturesque villages along the Loire, its castles, abbeys, and churches, or explore the amazing troglodyte dwellings.

Designed to accommodate 4 people, this cottage features two bright bedrooms with a 140x190 cm double bed and television, one of which has direct access to the terrace. The modern bathroom includes a walk-in shower, a vanity unit, and a heated towel rail. There is a separate toilet.

The 19 m² living room combines a fully equipped kitchen (oven, microwave, ceramic hob, dishwasher, and washing machine), a lounge area with a sofa bed and television, and a cozy dining area. For cozy gourmet moments, you can use the plancha, raclette, or crepe maker, depending on your mood.

Outdoors, the private terrace with garden furniture, a parasol, and sun loungers will allow you to enjoy the mild climate of the Anjou countryside. For an even more relaxing stay, the private spa (open from mid-April to the end of September) will offer you a well-deserved moment of relaxation after your excursions in the region. Located on a working farm, this cottage offers an authentic experience surrounded by nature, with personalized advice from Christine and Alain to discover the best local sites and activities. Wi-Fi, private on-site parking, and an all-inclusive rate (sheets, towels, utilities, and heating) guarantee a worry-free stay, with end-of-stay cleaning available at an additional cost.

Ideal for a stay as a couple, family, or with friends, this cottage combines modern comforts, a friendly atmosphere, and a deep immersion in the Anjou countryside.
