Les Jardins d'Helix
Valérie & Paul ("snail farmer" operating on-site, well away & without nuisance, one of the smallest snail farms in France), open the doors to a charming, authentic, traditional farmhouse of character dating from the 18th century, carefully restored, nestled on a 1 ha estate full of history, with an exotic old-world charm, composed of various renovated outbuildings (including one in a "mini farm inn") nestled "in a star" around a pleasant enclosed courtyard with a small garden planted with trees. Designed in the spirit of a "micro-farm" (welcoming their peaceful donkeys penned on site in season, unusual Hermann tortoises in the park & a henhouse), the property includes various terraces as relaxation & rest areas. Peace and quiet in the heart of the gently unspoiled Brionnais countryside (on a protected ZNIEFF site for its rich fauna and flora), a bucolic hilly setting of hedged fields and forests, nestled on the edge of meadows on the edge of a picturesque, perfectly preserved village, typical and full of charm, renowned for its delightful historic dry stone walls and its elegant neo-Romanesque church dating from the 14th century. Pleasant unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside. Spacious, very comfortable room with an elegant, atypical "open" bathroom hidden behind a glass roof. Warm character with contemporary accents inspired by "country chic." Lots of charm. Cozy and cozy atmosphere.
