About this property
A cave house with a historic charm
Step back in time and experience a truly unique holiday in this charming 130 m² cave house, steeped in rustic history and nestled in the peaceful countryside of the Loire Valley. Once home to hardworking farm laborers who collected limetruffel to help build the region's grand castles, this home now welcomes guests with simple comfort and a storybook setting. Ideal for up to 6 guests, it offers an extraordinary retreat for those seeking a slower pace of life surrounded by natural beauty and historic wonder.
The interiors are cozy and practical, blending old-world character with essential modern amenities. The living room invites relaxation with a satellite TV and a traditional fireplace for cool evenings. The well-equipped kitchen includes a hob, oven, combination microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer perfect for cooking hearty meals after a day of exploration. The ground floor features two double bedrooms, a bathroom with a bathtub, and a separate toilet. Upstairs, a third bedroom with two single beds completes the space, making it suitable for families or groups of friends.
Outside, enjoy a tranquil garden with a terrace, garden furniture, and a BBQ ideal for open-air meals under the stars. A high chair is available for young guests, and electric heating ensures comfort in all seasons. Just 20 km from the routes to the Loire’s iconic castles like Montrichard, Chenonceaux, and Amboise, this hidden gem is a perfect base for discovering vineyards, history, and timeless French charm—all from the cozy haven of a hillside cave.
