  Beschreibung

  I bought a country house just after COVID-19 after feeling trapped during lockdown in my small parisian apartment.
  It's located 10mn by car from the train station of La Charité sur Loire (city listed on UNESCO world heritage), also close to Pouilly sur Loire and Sancerre where you can fine great wines and goat cheese. Along the house there is a canal with a lock and you can watch the boats passing by just looking by the windows. Also a garden with many kind of trees and fruits and where I grow some vegetables.
  The house had been empty for more than 10 years when I bought it and some rooms were stucked in the 70s. That's why I still need some help to renovate it and work in the garden.

  Unterkunft

  you will sleep in a newly renovated bedroom with a confortable double bed and a view on the canal and the village. Some others parts of the house still need to be improved.
  I will provide food and I'd be happy to cook for you and share meals, but any help in the kitchen is welcome. I have a kitchenaid robot which I mainly use to bake sourdough bread and sometimes some pastries and an espresso grinder for coffee lovers.
  wifi on fiber internet access

  The Loire is one of the wildest big rivers in France, you can enjoy it by foot, bicycle or kayaking.
  There are different types of bicycle i can share to explore the surroundings : in 5mn you can join the cycle road "La Loire à Vélo" (Eurovelo 6) and there are also some nice little roads without too many cars.
  By bicycle, you can easily reach the touristic villages of Sancerre, Pouilly sur Loire and La charité sur Loire and even a beautiful forest (la forêt des Bertranges)
  Many possibilities of walking too with path starting close to the house. Lots of birds to observe and others wild animals (hare, coypu, squirrel, deer, fox, boar are the most common, people say there are otters in the natural reserve you can reach by foot from the house but i haven't seen them yet). I can lend you binoculars for your explorations.
  There is also a bakery in the village (3mn by foot) where you can find delicious french pastries
