Nature gîte for family get-togethers - 10 minutes from Vichy

All year round, I welcome families and groups of friends who are looking for a welcoming holiday destination that is conveniently located for everyone and designed with them in mind!

On the ground floor, you will find the kitchen and dining area opening onto the living room, as well as a bedroom with a private bathroom.
Upstairs, there are two bedrooms that can be completely reconfigured thanks to the twin beds, as well as a bright and spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Two wooden terraces allow you to enjoy the outdoors at different times of the day :)
And what about the pleasure of having breakfast facing the meadows on the east terrace, with only the sound of the wind in the birch leaves, or sharing an aperitif under the fir trees on the west terrace of the cottage... you can picture it, can't you?!
I recommend settling down on the terrace in front of the cottage at the end of the day to watch the deer in the meadow opposite, or simply to enjoy listening to the birds around you.

Le Refuge des Vaures is a cottage designed for relaxation and unwinding, located in a preserved and peaceful environment, surrounded by meadows.

Yet you will be only 10 minutes from the heart of Vichy, the queen of spa towns and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Heritage and historical discoveries, shopping and culinary explorations, and water sports of all kinds will fill your days during your stay.

And for lovers of the great outdoors, the beautiful Bourbonnais mountain will delight you. Just 40 minutes from the cottage, there are many activities on offer in the mid-range mountains, including hiking and mountain biking, via ferrata and water sports, trail running and climbing, horse riding, and of course magnificent views over the Vichy plain and the Auvergne mountains. Small mountains but big thrills!

At my cottage, I strive to reduce our impact on the environment and protect the nature that surrounds us.
I share the solutions I implement to reduce our consumption of resources and objects on our social media accounts.

If you would like to try this approach during your stay, please ask me for the ‘nature’ or ‘eco-friendly’ activity kits!
