About this property

Spacious and luxurious cottage for 12 people in Espalem in Auvergne

"Quiet cottage in a small farming village, warm and comfortable for 12 people"
The gîte is an old barn / barn which has been completely renovated and fitted out, where 12 people can stay and thus take full advantage of the unspoiled countryside.
The building is the starting point for beautiful walks and astonishing discoveries; the prestigious site of La Chaise-Dieu, the Volcanoes of Auvergnes, the picturesque villages of Bresle, Brioude and Lavaudieu are all curiosities to discover during hikes, mountain biking or even by car ... without forgetting that in winter , the Alpine ski resorts of Lioran and Super Besse are less than 50km away.

Located a few steps from Cantal and one km from the A75, this beautiful large stone house extends over 240m². Restored with noble materials that retain the freshness in summer and the warmth of a wood fire in winter, everything is provided for pampering evenings as for more festive stays. For the most discerning gastronomes, they will be happy to be able to benefit from a state-of-the-art equipped kitchen (see description) and above all to be able to set up a table around which everyone will find a place. For digestion and relaxation, the lounge will welcome you in front of the wood fire. Children will have board games, DVD player ... and of course, television.
Under its roof, after having climbed the natural stone staircase of the country (which I invite you to do barefoot to feel its softness), you will walk on an oiled wooden floor whose natural warmth is reflected by all its pores. In this way you have access to the five colorful and personalized rooms for a good nap (the south requires) or for a sweet restful night.
Finally, comfort could not be complete without a shower (or bath) according to everyone's desire. Note also that the toilets are separate.
A garage at your disposal, a large terrace and a garden with the essential accessories for the good holidaymaker (deckchair, barbecue, etc.), firewood, sheets and towels at disposal, and the welcome cleaning complete our offer.
A bakery at two kms for the morning croissant, shops at seven kms for daily necessities, numerous craft markets for the pleasure of Madame,…

Superbe gite
Nous avons passé une semaine dans ce gîte qui est juste superbe. D'une propreté incroyable et joliment décoré et très spacieux ( nous étions 12). La piscine est très bien ( eau au sel non précisé dans l'annonce).De magnifique balades a faire comme la vallée des saints ou bien la cascade de la biche. Un grand merci notre séjour a été très sympa.

Hébergement bien équipé et propre
Nous étions un groupe de 12 (6 enfants, 6 adultes) et nous avons apprécié le logement. Il est spacieux et bien aménagé. Il est bien équipé également. La personne qui gère le logement est sympathique et a su nous aider quand c'était nécessaire. Le seul bémol à notre séjour c'était la présence de mouches dans les alentours... Mais rien de bien grave.

Au calme
Chouette séjour dans un hameau très calme bien situé proche A75 pour découvrir la région. Malheureusement nous sommes venus trop tôt pour pouvoir profiter de l'extérieur et de la nouvelle piscine.

Maison superbe, rénovée avec goût, très bien agencée et faite pour les grands-groupe. Particulièrement bien équipée. Un bémol, inhérent à la vie à la campagne : les mouches sont TRES nombreuses.
