Family Retreat with Pool in Scenic Chamalières-sur-Loire
1 hour 45 minutes from Lyon and 2 hours from Clermont-Ferrand, the village of Chamalières-sur-Loire is served by the St Etienne-Le Puy train line. Just a few minutes' walk from the train station, you'll discover "La Maison des Pauls," a magnificent family home that Corine and Philippe have recently completely renovated to create the perfect vacation spot! The interiors are warm, modern, and comfortable, with thoughtful decor, including restored antiques that blend perfectly with more modern materials! New for reservations made from October 17, 2025, an outbuilding completes the accommodation's capacity. A small house next to the pool has just been converted into a bedroom for 2 people with a shower and toilet. Outside, you'll have the chance to enjoy a beautiful swimming pool and shaded relaxation areas in the heart of a wooded and fully enclosed park!
On-site: Discover the landscapes of the Loire Valley and the pretty village of Chamalières-sur-Loire, with its bakery, grocery store, and 4 restaurants. For outdoor activities, there's a canoeing/ziplining center on site.
A few minutes away, you can try your hand at the various water sports offered in the village of Retournac, visit the Lace Museum, or even the Château d'Artias.

With private parking in front of the house, the cottage and its outdoor spaces are accessible via a staircase leading to the property (not suitable for people with reduced mobility).
