About this property

Riverfront Country Home near Paris to enjoy Wine-tasting, cycling, lifestyle

Staying in our Pouilly House is a wonderful experience, with families, friends, or for a romantic, cozy French country experience. This riverfront, fully furnished and equipped house with a huge beautiful garden and decks is over 150 years old, originally built as a Tavern on the Loire river. Pouilly sur Loire is a lively town and 'vignoble' with wineries at a crossroads between central France and Burgundy. You'll thoroughly enjoy the comfort of this country home, the walkout gardens, the riverfront walks, and hundreds of kilometers for biking in the neighborhood or on the bike paths along the river natural reserves. Canoes and kayaks are available for day rentals--with pick up and drop off. There are over 40 Pouilly Fume wineries, a Friday farmer's market, 2 cafés as well as 2 incredible bakeries in less than 15 minute walk from the house.

Larger towns with festivals, historic sites, supermarkets and cinemas are 15 minute drives North or South on A77, including Cosne-sur-Loire and the beautiful medieval town--La Charite sur Loire.

In addition to the standard furnishing, the house has bikes for all sizes, barbeques, garden furniture, and wireless internet. It is a two level house, with upstairs and downstairs entrances. Both upstairs and downstairs enjoy walkout gardens with traditional stone wall enclosures and beautiful trees and flowers. Both upstairs and down have street access and parking as the house is on the corner and riverfront.

If you are ready for driving visits, Sancerre, Gien, Bourges, Orléans, Vezelay and Nevers are all great day visits--with wine tasting, cathedrals or basilicas, walking malls, and more. During the summer, another great day visit is to the medieval castle reconstruction site--Guedelon-- followed by Saint Fargeau's castle and nightly historical sound and light show. In the summer there are outdoor festivals, markets, fairs, and art exhibits all around the area--which are well documented with signage, at the tourism office, and in the local paper. A bit further long day trips or overnight trips can be made to Paris, the Chateau de Chenonceau, Les Hospices de Beaune and more. For more ideas and images, you can visit our website. The Paris airports are both accessible in a little over two hours by train or car.

The house is fully equipped with everything from outdoor dining furniture to wine glasses, TVs to salt & pepper shakers. Come with your family or friends and enjoy French country living and culture.

Pouilly House has independent upstairs and downstairs access. Please contact us for rates and details to rent just one level of this country home.

Property information

Property was clean and adequate for us. However, prior photos were inaccurate, grass was long and unattended, outside seating was inadequate and showers were not great.

Charming family home in wine country

We spent five days in this home, relaxing with family. There are many interesting sights within a reasonable drive and the town of Pouiily-sur-Loire has everything we required a short walk away. There are limited opportunities for eating out within walking distance but the home is very well equipped for self catering with a fabulous newly renovated kitchen and living area. We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the fruit trees, the vineyard beyond and the River Loire.

Tolles Ferienhaus mit Blick über die Loire

Ein tolles Haus mit großem neuem Anbau, neuer Küche und sehr schöner Terrasse. Es ist alles da, was man braucht. Bäcker und kleiner Supermarkt gut zu erreichen. Viele kleine Weingüter sind in der Nähe und bei vielen kann man auch probieren (und kaufen 😉).

We enjoyed our stay. We had difficulty with the washing machine, but finally figured it out. The stairs to the lower level needs a railing. The new kitchen and dining area is very nice.

Haus mit Flair

Wir haben im Sommer 2021 eine Woche in Pouilly verbracht. Das Haus ist sehr geräumig und gut eingerichtet, die Räume sind großzügig geschnitten und die beiden Badezimmer ein großes Plus. Der Garten ist riesig und kaum einsehbar. Hier wäre es schön gewesen, noch ein paar Liegestühle zu haben oder eine Hängematte. Die Übergabe sei Hauses und die Betreuung während unseres Aufenthalts wären super! Ein kleines Manko: die Buchung des Hauses erfordert den gleichzeitigen Abschluss einer Versicherung, in unserem Fall wären dies ca. 80 Euro Zusatzkosten. Diese Kosten erscheinen unvermittelt erst während des Buchungsvorgangs. Alternativ hätte eine m.M. nach unangemessen hohe Kaution vorgelegt werden müssen. Es wäre angenehm, diese Informationen bereits in der Beschreibung vorzufinden.

Maison spacieuse à proximité immédiate de la Loire

Idéal pour les grandes familles, il y a de la place pour tout le monde et la maison est bien équipée (pratique d'avoir des vélos sur place pour profiter de La Loire à vélo). Les enfants ont apprécié les balançoires dans le jardin, le petit plus aurait été que la pelouse soit tondue (les herbes étaient hautes).

Taking a deep breath on the river

We enjoyed our stay on the river! Very relaxing ! We felt welcome the minute we drove in. This home was well stocked (although we did not cook any meals) We went on a bicycle ride with bikes provided. When returning to this area of France we would definitely stay here again. Owener was readily available by email.

Bonne maison pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis

Nous avions réservé cette maison pour 5 adultes et 4 enfants.Il y avait largement assez de place pour tout le monde (manque peut-être une grande table pour les repas partagés).Nous avons eu un excellent accueil de la part de Laure qui s'est montrée disponible,réactive et très accueillante.

Très belle maison, dans un cadre agréable et très bon accueil

Nous avons passé un super séjour à Pouilly sur Loire. Nous sommes restés 4 jours mais la région offre largement assez d'activités pour passer des séjours plus longs, entre les caves, les bords de Loire, les activités pour les enfants, le château de Guédelon... L'accueil était parfait, la maison était complètement prête à notre arrivée y compris les lits faits même sur les canapés lits (de bonne qualité). La maison, actuellement habitée, est extrêmement bien équipée. Nous avons bien pu profiter du jardin, duquel les vues sur le bord de Loire et sur la vigne sont assez saisissantes. A refaire!

Enjoyable Place

We spent two very relaxing weeks in this very nice cottage. It is fully equipped and nicly furnished. It really makes a difference if a place is also used by the owner or if it is "only" let full time. Especially for families this place is very nice. The available bikes do their job and the bike path parallel to the Loire is fantastic. The large garden invites to play outdoor games or to finally read your favorite book. It is not entirely silent though, since the property is located directly at the road to the bridge over the Loire. But don't worry too much. It is a narrow road and the traffic is low to moderate. Also you are directly at the border of the Loire and you can find many not far away places where you have access to the water. I also liked Puilly sur Loire and its sourounding very much. It is a beautiful little village. You get all basics you need and you will find two excellent Boulangeries. Especially if you like white wine, this is the right place for you.

Absolutely Delightful! Our family will cherish this trip for years!

I just can't say enough about the house and the area. We spent 10 days here with our parents, my sister's family and my family. It was a full house but there was ample room for everyone and it never felt crowded. My 12 year old son's highlight was catching a cat fish on the river, which we cleaned and grilled in the back yard. My highlight was the wine tours, my dad loved the dinner at the duck farm which we went to on bikes. My niece fell in love with the goats at a nearby village. My mom loved the village church and weekly outdoor market. And, my husband thought the bikes on the railroad tracks were too fun, especially with all the black berries you can eat along the way. Do your research ahead of time, as there are sooo many things to do. I highly recommend renting a car, so you can visit places like Guedelon (a 20 year project where they are building a castle using 13th century techniques).

un fabuleux séjour

Nous avons passé un séjour fabuleux pour ce jour de l'an. Nous avions l'impression d'arriver dans la maison de campagne d'amis tellement nous nous sommes sentis tout de suite chez nous. Tout nous a séduit : A l'intérieur de la maison : de grandes chambres, un salon agréable, dont la fenêtre comme celle de la cuisine donne sur la Loire ... une vue superbe! une cuisine bien équipée. A l'extérieur : nous avons pu faire des ballades en vélo avec notre fils (il y a des vélos pour toutes les tailles), plein de ballades à pied en bord de Loire ou dans les vignes, nous avons visité Cosnes sur Loire, Sancerre, la Charité sur Loire. Il y a plein d'autres coins mais certains fermés dans la période d'hiver. Bref un séjour super avec un temps très doux Les seuls petits bémols : la télé trop vieillotte en bas et trop petite en haut et comme la nuit tombe tôt, on avait envie de se voir un dvd en famille. Il manque quelques ustensiles de cuisine (type robot pour faire de bonnes soupes d'hiver, ou des gâteaux). Ce serait bien de prévoir cela pour notre prochain séjour !! car nous avons un tellement bon séjour que nous souhaitons revenir pour un WE ou une semaine. merci à vous pour ce séjour et à Laure qui nous accueille gentiment.

Family time

We spent 9 days at this property in August with our children and grandchildren. The kids loved the swings and the fruit trees...we picked ripe prunes daily and were even able to make a gateau to the enjoyment of all. Lots of toys for the children to play with as well. The property manager was delightful and helpful. We enjoyed the wine tasting in the village and daily visits to the local bakeries.

Charmante maison en bord de Loire

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour en famille dans cette charmante maison propre et bien entretenue, avec tout le confort attendu. Les vélos mis à disposition permettent de faire de jolies balades dans la région. Le grand jardin arboré et au calme, avec vue sur Loire est très appréciable, à quelques pas du centre ville. Et enfin, l'accueil sur place par Laure est très chaleureux. Il ne reste plus qu'à en profiter!

About the host

Hosted by Vanessa

Host profile image
This family-friendly home and garden, has been renovated by my husband and his father, with decorative touches by my father. My kids feel at home here and love coming here, playing and riding bicycles. We spend time here every year as a family and with friends! It is a great vacation home in a wonderful region, which has numerous cultural events and festivals! We really enjoy it regularly and hope you will enjoy and care for it too.

Why they chose this property

Our family is franco-american, and we all wanted a place to share and enjoy and relax together. This beautiful, historical site, is also homey and comfortable with a natural setting, in a small yet very vibrant town near Paris. It is well situated only 2 hours from Paris, as well as within an hour or two of hundreds of historical and cultural sites in Burgundy and along the Loire river. It was a perfect choice for our family to grow and to share with new and old friends.

What makes this property unique

Our family loves to come rest, relax and recover in this home, and relax on our terrace on the spectacular riverfront. The region is beautiful, including hundreds of amazing wineries, "chateaux" nearby, historic sites, festivals, cultural events, and "brocantes" every weekend for antique lovers. We garden, take long walks and bike rides, barbeque, swim in the river, walk into town for delicious wine tasting, coffees or hot cocoa or to the market on Fridays. Pouilly is a way of life!
