Troglomignon

Come and discover, for the duration of your stay, a cave cottage in the village of Le Puy-Notre-Dame. This dwelling, carved directly out of the tuffeau stone, invites you to enjoy a unique experience and admire this beautiful renovation, whilst enjoying the comforts of a traditional holiday cottage. These cave dwellings, which are very common in the Anjou region, form part of a historical and cultural heritage that is unique in France.

As you enter the holiday cottage, the central room features a large dining area, a lounge with a television, and a fitted, fully equipped kitchen. From this room, you can step out onto a small south-facing patio with a small set of garden furniture. On the other side, a terrace with garden furniture, a barbecue and carports will allow you to enjoy long summer evenings at the foot of the tuffeau rock. Your private outdoor area is enclosed by a gate.

This holiday let also comprises a large bedroom with a 140cm bed and a cot, a small bedroom with two 90cm beds, a shower room with a shower and washbasin unit, and a separate toilet.

The owner’s house is situated next door, with no direct view into it. The gîte faces due south and is perfectly comfortable in all seasons. All rooms have windows and/or doors opening onto the outside. You’ll appreciate how cool the property stays, particularly in summer. During colder periods, the central heating in every room and the open-hearth fireplace will provide a cosy atmosphere.

You’ll be 2.5 km from the River Thouet and the Vélofrancette cycle route for cycling enthusiasts. There are plenty of places to visit nearby: 10 minutes away, Montreuil-Bellay and its 12th- and 15th-century castle; 15 minutes away, Doué-la-Fontaine and the Bioparc; 23 minutes away, Saumur with its sparkling wine cellars, the Cadre Noir, the castle and the Loire… Not to mention the many wine estates, vineyards and picturesque villages of the Douessine region.

Both holiday cottages at the same address can be rented together to accommodate 8 people. See the Troglojitte listing (reference H49G015084) on the Gîtes de France website. The outdoor areas of the two holiday cottages are separate from one another.
