Le Vieux Fournil is a converted bakehouse, still with the original oven opening into the living space, providing that extra piece of interest and history to this wonderfully quirky building. The kitchen and bathroom are housed in the original woodstore and pig sty. The bedroom is converted from the hayloft although now the high ceiling is grandly adorned with its own chandelier! The cottage is perfectly suited to meet the needs of busy people looking for peace and quiet. Situated within a 200 year old farm, (now non working) and located in the department of Mayenne in north of the region of the Pays de la Loire. The house is 2kms from the historic town of Lassay-les-Chateaux which boasts one of the finest examples in France of a fortified medieval chateau. The town has many winding streets amongst which can be found examples of medieval living all situated just off the main market square where you will find local shops and local amenities. This is an ideal base for couples and friends seeking walking or cycling holidays in wonderful countryside or alternatively just a relaxing break from modern life! We do provide in the cottage a guide book for both places of interest to visit and restaurant recommendations and we are always happy to answer questions and make recommendations. - We look forward to seeing you soon!
DISCLAIMER - please note for the item on the listing ‘Chantrigné explore the area’ - this section is AI generated by VRBO over which I have no control or input. For example in the ‘Whats nearby’ section it says that we are a 2min walk to Normandie- Maine Natural Park. This is accurate. The boarder of the park is 2 minutes away but the size of the park is 257,000 hectares which designates a general area of natural beauty with 17 sites that have been listed as protected areas. Although we live in beautiful countryside with lovely views you cannot walk for 2 minutes and be in ‘parkland’. The restaurant recommendations are also AI generated ie two of the ‘restaurants’ listed are bars that do not provide food.
