About this property

Charming Farmhouse Retreat: Farm Life, Wildlife & Scenic Views, Perfect for Family Holidays

Nestled in a protected environment at the crossroads of the Haute-Loire, Cantal, and Puy-de-Dôme departments lies the village of Autrac.

It is here that Antony and Michelle have recently renovated a family home, transforming it into a charming holiday retreat.

The undeniable advantage of this lovely house is its proximity to the owners' working farm, where they will be delighted to share their work and introduce you to their animals! Meals are available upon request.

On-site: Discover farm life, enjoy walks, and observe the local flora and fauna.
Nearby: Ardes-sur-Couze Animal Park, visit Blesle, one of the most beautiful villages in France...
A little further afield: Explore the Puys d'Auvergne (volcanic mountains), and visit the towns of Brioude and Le Puy-en-Velay.

Ein sehr schönes Haus in phantastischer Umgebung

Wir haben eine sehr schöne Zeit in diesem schönen Haus verbracht. Wir fanden alles wie beschrieben vor.Es war ausreichend Platz für 5 Personen.Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Die Duschen sind sehr schön.Lebensmittel gibt es in Blesle, der Bäcker ist großartig. Dienstags muss man nach Massiac.Dort ist auch ein Intermarché, in dem man alles Notwendige bekommen kann. Es gibt Tausende Dinge in der Gegend zu tun.Rings ums Haus kommt man sich vor wie im schottischen Hochland.Klares Go für dieses Haus.
