The house
Our cottage is located on the grounds of our chambre d'hôtes. You may know us from the TROS programme Ik Vertrek?
In this newly built gîte in 2010, you have access to two bedrooms, a bathroom with toilet, shower and sink and a living room with kitchen. You can stay here with a maximum of 4 people.
The gîte is a stone-built, insulated house, with wood panelling on one side to blend in with the rural character. It has a large wood burning stove in the living room and electric heaters in the shower and bedrooms for the winter.
In front of the gîte you have your own piece of land with garden furniture and a gazebo where you have a view over our property and the mountains.
There is no washing machine in the gite, but you can find one in our main building at no extra cost.
If this gîte is occupied,..... we also have a 2nd gîte on our property suitable for maximum 2 persons: Gîte l'Ancienne Infirmerie. (nr 5948)

Restaurants, food & wine
In our Chambre d'Hôtes we also offer table d'hôtes, which means a delicious and special 4-course dinner. Rudolf (in the role of chef de cuisine) prepares special and tasty dishes, where we also take into account what you don't like or can't eat. René (in his role as chef de table) takes care of the table decoration, which makes the dinners with us very cosy. We serve the local Côte Roannaise with dinner. Of course we are happy to give you addresses of winegrowers and caves in the area so that you can see the wine grow and bottle with your own eyes.
In the vicinity (between 20 and 30 minutes by car), you can find very nice restaurants, where you can have dinner or lunch at very attractive prices. Of course, you can also choose to spend 'a little' more money and dine at Le Troisgros in Roanne, which has three Michelin stars.
Activities
The surroundings, which are not very touristy yet, offer enough possibilities to entertain yourself for a longer period. You can get active by hiking in the area, clambering in the treetops at the Parc Aventure, making trips on a bicycle, taking mountain bike tours at La Loge des Gardes or cross-country skiing or skiing in winter.
You can also relax a bit with us or in the surrounding area. We have a swimming pool and a sunbathing area as well as a wood-fired outdoor sauna and hot tub. In the surroundings you can visit medieval villages, castles and for example the Romanesque church in the artists' village of Châtel Montagne. Walking around and shopping in Vichy, visiting the flea markets, museums and adventure/amusement parks in the area are also possible.

Reviews
Annette Molendijk from Zwijndrecht,
Wij zijn met z’n 4en 2 weken te gast geweest bij Rudolf en René in de gite. Het was er heerlijk. De gite had alles wat we nodig hadden. De gastheren waren erg vriendelijk, hadden tips voor uitstapjes in de omgeving, die erg mooi en leuk is. Het zwembad was lekker om af gekoelen in de hitte. Al met al een top adres. Voor herhaling vatbaar en
we bevelen jullie van harte aan. Gr fam MolendijkJoke from Schiedam,
Wij hebben al een paar keer van hun gastvrijheid mogen genieten. Rijden hiervoor met plezier een stukje om. Als je daar binnenkomt valt de warmte als een deken over je heen. Wat te denken van de geweldig diners die wij daar hebben genuttigd, de kamers zijn geweldig, aan alle details is gedacht. Rudolf kan koken als de beste en René is als gastheer onovertrefbaar, als je ziet hoe de tafels gedekt worden. Ik kijk eigenlijk het hele jaar uit naar de overnachtingen bij hen. Stom eigenlijk dat ik hier zo'n goede referentie geef, straks is alles allemaal vol en kan ik er zelf niet meer terecht. Maar dat voorkom ik gewoon door heeeel vroeg te reserveren
Mariska from Zoetermeer,
Super overnachting gehad bij Rene en Rudolf! Leuk ontvangst, zalig gegeten (complimenten aan Rudolf!) en heerlijk geslapen. Onze 3 kids (15, 12 & 9) hebben zich prima vermaakt. Echt 'n aanraader en wij komen zeker nog 'n keertje terug!
