La Maisonnette - Epinac

Authentic 19th century miners' house steeped in history - fully restored inside - nestled on the edge of a small, quiet alley (one-way) in the heart of the old working-class districts (peaceful residential area), adjoining the center of the charming, typical and commercial village of Epinac (very many amenities on site), a major mining town from the late 19th and early 20th centuries (important industrial site for the production of glassware and coal) associated with one of the oldest railway lines in France (of which the station still exists).
