Our land is situated on the border of the rural village Gannay sur Loire in the far north of the Auvergne region, and is only a stone's throw, from the beautiful regions of Morvan and Bourgogne.
This country estate is set in more than two hectares of attractive countryside and has the following accommodation available; three bed & breakfast rooms, two holiday houses [La Grande Grue and La Somme], a maisonnette [La Loire} and a little 'camping aire naturelle'.
Maisonnette La Loire
This accommodation is a small gîte [holiday house] situated in the former hay loft of the "etable" [former cow shed].
The house is suitable for five persons, you enter the house by the cosy and snuggy livingroom with saloon, dining-corner and kitchen-corner.
From this room you can go to the showerroom [toilet, shower and lavabo], to a sleeping room with a stock bed and a single bed and to a double room.
In the courtyard you will find garden furniture and a barbeque wich have to be shared with the guests of the three B&B rooms.
If you wish to come with more people, no problem, it is also possible [for example] to have children sleeping on the camping wich is also on our land or to rent one or more rooms in the former 'etable'.The whole estate is available for our guests to enjoy, e.g. you can take a refreshing dive in our swimming pool or sit under the Lime tree with a drink.
If guests do not feel like cooking, then join your hosts for a meal, freshly prepared every day using vegetables and herbs from the kitchen garden. Guests can also have breakfast prepared for them. For further information about what activities and accommodation is available please go to our web pages.
On the days when guests would just like to relax and un-wind, then the perfect solution is to stay on the estate. We have a large swimming pool, playing field plus chalet, a volleybalfield, a goal, a piste de petanque, a trampoline, terraces where you can sit in the sun or shade, picnic tables and two permanent barbecues. For young children we also have a sandpit and swings. There are bicycles available for hire and we organise kayak tours on the river Loire. The beautiful and quiet surroundings are perfect for cycling or walking, or if our guests are unsure what they would like to do, please ask your hosts (Trudi & Peter), we have plenty of suggestions.
The famous Loire is a short walk from the estate, and guests can swim, fish, canoe or just relax by the riverbanks. On the other side of the village there is a canal that runs parallel with the Loire, here guests will find a yacht club and restaurant, (the yachts are available for hire).
If guests would prefer to be more actively entertained there is a karting lane close by and also a large amusement-animal park within a half hour's driving. However if history, beautiful buildings and exploring interests you, then we are perfectly situated for visits to the picturesque cities of Bourbon-Lancy or Decize or Autun or Moulins and also villages that have magnificent historical buildings, castles, churches, museums, gardens etc. Within a half hour traveling distance lies the city of Nevers with her famous cathedral and palaces. We have all of the information leaflets – just ask us!
