Our phone number is written on the keyring. We can be reached at any time, as we live on the same land, 200m from the cottage.
The name "La maison des biches" is simply linked to the fact that we often see them on our land (deer, roe deer and chevrettes), you may be lucky enough to come across some during your stay, even in the middle of the day!
In this haven of peace, you can enjoy the sound of the river flowing at the bottom of the land. Go and see our chickens in the middle of an organic orchard recently planted with several dozen trees, admire the Milky Way at night when the sky is clear, because there is no light pollution here. You will also have no noise pollution, because the road that arrives at the village is a cul de sac, so there is very little traffic except for the inhabitants of the village, and the house is located more than 500m from the centre.
