Sleeps 5 (3 Bedrooms)

|
Les Lauriers, a lovely detached cottage set on the edge of the picturesque village of Faverolles-en-Berry, retains a traditional French feel with oak beams, tiled floors and French furniture whilst providing all modern comforts. There is a small enclosed back garden and large garden beyond with stream and old bread oven. The village of Faverolles en Berry, 10 minutes from St Aignan sur Cher, is a centre of many beautiful walks and cycle runs, all clearly marked. Wildlife abounds in this vicinity! There is a fishing pond and football pitch next to the cottage, and it is a five minute walk up to the village shop, which sells most things including bread, croissants and pain au chocolats. There is also a post office and a beautiful church.
