La Grande Varenne - SAINT-LOUP-GEANGES

Édouard (an amateur beekeeper by passion) and Marie-Christine welcome you to a charming, authentic, fully restored late 19th-century farmhouse, nestled peacefully on the edge of a lane in the heart of a tranquil rural hamlet near the picturesque and bustling market town of Saint-Loup-Géanges, boasting an elegant 12th-century Romanesque church (numerous small shops and a supermarket are located there). Enjoy peace and complete tranquility in the heart of the countryside, perched on a small, south-facing plateau overlooking a bucolic valley of fields and meadows crossed by a small river (accessible from the property), close to beautiful, unspoiled forests, including the vast Gergy forest, the literal "green lung" of the region.

The cottage offers comfortable accommodation. It is very spacious and boasts a warm, rustic charm combined with the gentle and exotic atmosphere of a historic home.
