From the moment you enter, the large, welcoming living room charms with its exposed beams, wood-burning stove, and abundant natural light. The fully equipped open-plan kitchen flows seamlessly into a convivial dining area, perfect for sharing meals after a day in the fresh air. The ground floor features a cozy bedroom with a double bed (140 cm) and a cot, accessible for guests with reduced mobility. Upstairs, a bright bedroom offers three single beds (90 cm), while an attic room provides an additional double bed (140 cm). A modern shower room, two separate toilets, a workspace for teleworking, and a spacious lounge complete this cottage, perfectly designed for everyone's comfort. Underfloor heating, a dishwasher, a tumble dryer, Wi-Fi, and baby equipment ensure a relaxing stay, whatever the season. A holiday rental nestled between nature, hiking, and heritage in the Loire Valley. Located in Fontanès, a small hilltop village in the heart of the Monts du Lyonnais, Le Chapi offers a peaceful view of the castle grounds. This gîte is a true haven of peace for nature lovers and those who appreciate wide open spaces. From the flower-filled garden, hiking trails begin just steps away, inviting you to explore the Pilat Regional Natural Park and the panoramic views of the Forez region. Nearby, charming villages like Malleval and Montbrison reveal a rich heritage and typical Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes cuisine. Cycling and mountain biking enthusiasts will enjoy secure bike storage and marked trails, while children will relish outdoor games and the freedom of the large garden. Here, each season has its own charm: the golden hues of autumn, winter walks, the spring awakening of the orchards, or the balmy summer evenings around the bread oven.
