Pets not allowed
This nice ruralhut is an old farmhouse, built in the region’s style: the Puy de Dôme. It is located in the beautiful, rolling countryside of the Combrailles, far away from highways, amusements parks, and other forms of mass tourism. This area offers many cultural and sport related activities, but it also invites you to enjoy the nature. There are two cottages on this terrain. The cottages used to be for stables for cattle, after the renovation they became cozy houses. The gîtes are detached and have a private terrace with beautiful view over the hilly landscape of the Combrailles. Only the church tower of Montaigut is visible in the distance. The cottage is simply furnished but is fully equipped. There’s also a well-equipped kitchen, garden furniture, and a ‘pompe à chaleur’; in the winter it functions as heating and during the summer it functions as air conditioning, so it’s a pleasant stay all year long. The children can enjoy themselves on the child-friendly grounds. They can cuddle the rabbits, and we can feed the chickens and sheep (with their lambs) together. There is a setup swimming pool (3.60 in diameter) and a few nice child-friendly lakes can be found in Lapeyrouse and St. Eloy. The cottage is suitable for two adults and two children.
Nature and surroundings
Buxières sous Montaigut is located in the northern part of the Puy de Dôme, the department of extinct volcanoes (the Puys). It is an agricultural area in a hilly landscape with little tourism. It is very suitable for walking and cycling. The many lakes and rivers can be used for swimming, canoeing, and fishing. Many activities are organized during the summer in the surrounding villages and cities, such as flea markets, bowls games, and jazz festivals. The nearby Montluçon has a beautiful medieval quarter and several museums. There is a direct train link from Paris to this place, from where the landlords would be willing to pick you up from the station. Suggestions for nice day trips include the Puy de Dôme (including hiking and paragliding), Saint Nectairse, with its typical Auvergne church and delicious cheese, the beautiful old towns of Hérisson, Souvigny, and Charroux, the Gorges du Sioule (hiking, fishing, canoeing), Fades Viaduct and the reservoir, as well as a waterfall in St Priest des Champs, St. Pourcain, also known for its wine, and for the children there is the Le Pal theme park (also partial zoo) and Vulcania.
