About this property

Cozy cottage with stunning views near Saint-Étienne

  • Perched at an altitude of 1000 meters in a former 19th-century schist farmhouse, the Les Hauts de Fontmora gîte offers 90 m² of comfortable accommodation in a protected environment. This detached house has been carefully restored to preserve its authenticity while providing modern amenities. The first level features two comfortable bedrooms, one with a 140 cm double bed and the other with two 90 cm single beds. A study area with a 90 cm sofa bed completes this level. A shower room and separate toilet are also available. Upstairs, the open-plan kitchen blends seamlessly into the bright living area, where a pellet stove creates a warm atmosphere after a day of exploring. A terrace, garden, barbecue, Wi-Fi, dishwasher, washing machine, and baby equipment complete the amenities for a practical and comfortable stay in any season. Access is via a 500 m paved road. From the very first moment, the setting invites you to slow down. Nestled on the edge of the forest, soothed by birdsong and the ever-changing colors of the Pilat landscape, this cottage is an ideal starting point for nature lovers. The GR42 long-distance hiking trail passes nearby, allowing you to set off on foot or by bike along the paths that crisscross the massif. Just a few kilometers away, the Bessat resort offers cross-country skiing and snowshoeing when winter blankets the peaks. The Château de Rochetaillée, the villages of the Pilat Regional Natural Park, and local producers offer wonderful discoveries, blending heritage, gastronomy, and traditions. Located in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, this holiday home also benefits from its proximity to Saint-Étienne and all its amenities, just ten minutes away. Between escape, comfort, and attentive service, everything is in place for a rejuvenating weekend or longer stay in the Loire Valley. Let yourself be charmed by this hidden gem and book your next getaway in nature.

High up

Comfortable house but it would be a good idea to include in the description that it’s up a very steep track with sharp bends and the garden is on different levels, some steep. Maybe not suitable for someone with mobility difficulties
