Natural house in an atypical site

Bio-climatic house (wood-land-straw) self built in an old stone quarry (8000m²). It consists of three parts: The small house (guest party) the winter garden (which serves as a link- it is under construction) and the main house.
The whole is bordered by wooden terraces (douglas) without link between them.
An access ramp (slope about 6%) unsecured to this day (07/01/18) allows a chair to easily access the winter garden. All doors are 83cm.
The guest party is facing south with two large bays of 9m ² offers a beautiful view of the grove. It is bordered on the west by two terraces of different levels (about 6m ² each).
Inside: A bedroom area (bed 140 and possibility of a second sleeping) kitchen and bathroom (walk-in shower and TOILET DRY !!)

Very peaceful
We chose this property for the reasonable price and proximity to Puy du Fou and it served us well. It is well equipped for cooking (we made 2 dinners) and there a is great selection of food nearby at the Super U. It is especially quiet at night which we appreciated. Somehow I neglected to include our grandson when making the reservation but Jocelyn was most gracious and accommodating of my mistake. There is a good shower and the composting toilet, while unusual, is perfectly fine. I would suggest 2 small changes, a thicker/softer mattress and wifi booster. We would be happy to visit again.

Unique stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this unique property in a stunning location. Christian and Jocelyne were fantastic hosts, attentive and friendly without being intrusive. The house is an innovative, green build and how we should all be building houses these days. The composting toilet was a different experience for us - almost seems strange to flush now! We would love to visit again.

Problèmes de dos? Fuyez!
Des hôtes accueillants, un lieu très joli. Cela se corse une fois arrivés dans les lieux, des clic-clac en guise de sommiers, des matelas qui n'en sont pas, pas de Wi-Fi, pas de télévision mais pas non plus de salon pour la regarder, donc... Des équipements de cuisines très limités voir dangereux, une table de cuisine instable etc. Je suis navrée d'émettre ces critiques car les hôtes sont très agréables, cependant depuis ces deux nuits passées dans ce gîte, (dont une de péniblement 4h à cause de la literie), j'ai un terrible lumbago, moi qui n'ai jamais eu auparavant de problème de dos.

Idyllischer Aufenthalt in liebevoll gestaltetem zu Hause
Die Unterkunft ist etwas ganz Besonderes. Die Eigentümer sind außerordentlich nett ohne dabei aufdringlich zu sein. Die liebevolle Gestaltung der Unterkunft lässt einen einerseits sofort wie zu Hause fühlen und ist andererseits wie eine kleine Reise für sich, da so viele Details aus fernen Ländern zu einem stimmigen Gesamtwerk zusammengefügt sind. Herzlichen Dank.

Le charme écologique
Venus en famille pour assister à la Cinéscénie, nous avons aimé ce lieu calme et agréable. Idéal pour se reposer mais non loin du Puy du Fou. Nous avons été très bien accueilli par les propriétaires avec lesquels nous avons partagé un repas. Endroit à garder dans les tablettes.
