Pretty charming house, quiet, in the countryside... but 5 minutes from Vichy
Housed in an old barn from the 15th century, very close to the castle of Verseilles, this completely renovated rural gite has retained its authenticity by combining the modern and the old. It is surrounded by a natural, flowery and pleasant garden, with a view of the hilly countryside, a pond for fishing ... Ground floor: Fitted kitchen, dining area, lounge, 1 bedroom (2 twin 80x200 beds or 1 single large bed, your choice), 1 bedroom (1 160x200 bed), shower room (shower), separate WC. Heating with fuel in winter (Price of fuel during the day, counting of the litter consumed by meter counter). Ideally located 5 minutes from Vichy, in the quiet of the countryside, and about 30 km from the Gorges de la Sioule, the Bourbonnaise Mountain, the Besbre Valley and its castles. On site, hiking, fishing, watching wild animals and of course the owners' swimming pool at Château de Verseilles, available according to hours. Close to Vichy for all sports and leisure (10km). La Grange de Verseilles is located in a superb historic hamlet, with well, wood oven and 15th century castle. Exceptional location, wild and unspoiled nature. No pesticides or treatments because the Barn of Verseilles is surrounded by meadows in which cows graze their calves. No crops treated. The garden of the cottage is maintained "by hand", without any harmful products. The sheets are made of linen, a natural product. We are aware of the need to preserve our fantastic living environment!

Loys was there to greet us on arrival and made sure we had everything we needed and during our stay he joined us in a glass of wine and talked to us about places to visit and gave us 2 excellent restaurant recommendations.
The point to mention is the restricted use of the pool. It is mentioned in the small print at the bottom of the listing but we feel it should have been made more obvious. That said Loys did advise that as they were out we could have full use on a couple of days.
Really enjoyed our stay

Casa está muy bien, acojedora y ubicado en zona tranquila.Han sido nuestras mejores vacaciones, muy relajantes, el entorno es fantástico y los pocos vecinos encantadores.Tienes todo lo necesario para poder disfrutar.Lo recomiendo al 100%, nosotras seguramente volveremos.
Nous avons passé un charmant séjour dans ce gîte.
Nous avons été touchés par les petites attentions des hôtes : bouquets de fleur fraîches à notre arrivée, une coribeille de fruits du jardin…
Cette ancienne ferme rénovée est très agréable : de beaux volumes & surtout elle reste bien fraîche malgré la chaleur extérieur! Jolie vue sur les vallons aux alentours depuis le jardin.
Piscine à quelques mètres, au château, très agréable également !
Rien à redire sur cette semaine passée dans ce gîte.
Propriétaires charmants, gîte très bien équipé, au calme à la campagne mais à 15min seulement de Vichy.
Je recommande vivement 👍
Le gîte est situé dans un petit hameau tranquille, au pied du magnifique château de Verseilles, à seulement 10 minutes du centre de Vichy. La vue sur la campagne est superbe, et le calme est garanti.
Le jardin clos fut un atout pour notre chien ! Du gîte partent de nombreuses randonnées à travers la montagne bourbonnaise, ce fut très agréable de marcher sur ces chemins, à la découverte des nombreux étangs, et des points de vue superbes. Le propriétaire nous a très gentiment accueillis. Le gîte est impeccable et très agréable à vivre, tout y est. Vous aurez compris, nous y reviendrons avec un grand plaisir !
Location facile à vivre, très bien équipée et pleine de charme. La localisation de ce gîte nous a permis de découvrir la région sans parcourir de grandes distances.
Au coeur des champs, notre séjour nous a permis de nous ressourcer et d'apprécier le calme de la campagne.
La piscine est un atout supplémentaire pour contenter les grands et les petits.
Un endroit à conseiller sans retenue d'autant que l'accueil que nous avons reçu a été très chaleureux.
