Retour à la nature
Oublier la ville et venir respirer, écouter la nature et randonner : voilà un début de programme très salvateur. Gîte typique du secteur,avec l ambiance du poêle le soir . Il y a tout ce qu il faut . Simplement et ressourçant . De bonnes ballades sans voiture à partir du gîte. Et montbrison à 15 min pour trouver de bons produits sur son marché. Top
