Charming house in Loire gorges with terraces and wood stove

An hour and a half from Clermont-Ferrand, an hour and a half from Lyon, and less than an hour from Saint-Étienne, nestled in the Loire gorges, lies the village of Retournac. In the hamlet of Giraudon, perched on the mountainside, you'll find "Le Repère de Léo" (Leo's Hideaway). This recently renovated family cottage is the perfect setting for a fabulous holiday, whether you're a couple or a family! Here, nature surrounds you and will undoubtedly dazzle you in every season!

From the cottage: numerous hikes suitable for all levels, ideal for observing and discovering the surrounding nature.

Nearby: explore the Loire Valley, enjoy supervised swimming beaches, a variety of water sports, the Corboeuf ravine with its unique landscapes, and numerous shops, all within a 10-minute drive.

Nearby attractions include Le Puy-en-Velay and its remarkable UNESCO World Heritage sites, the village of Polignac, Yssingeaux and its renowned Thursday morning market, not to mention the Mézenc plateau, ideal for outdoor activities. This detached house, situated on approximately 1,500 m² of land, boasts two terraces perfect for enjoying the outdoors: one facing east for sunny breakfasts, the other west for relaxing at the end of the day.
