L'Hirondelle Rustique is located à la campagne in the tiny hamlet of Gros Sauvigny (municipality of Anlezy). There is plenty of nature, peace and space here. The landscape is hilly and varied, with meadows, forests, streams and fields. From the gîte it is wonderful to walk. The chance of encountering deer, hares, pine martens or other animals is high.
For cycling enthusiasts, there are several cycling routes. For example, a beautiful cycle path has been built along the Canal du Nivernais. But renting a boat and sailing through the locks of this canal is also recommended.
In addition to hiking and cycling, you can also swim in the area. For example, in the forest lake, about a 10-minute drive from l'Hirondelle Rustique. Canoeing, horse riding, tree climbing, golf and fishing are also available in the surroundings. Morvan Regional Natural Park is nearby. In the Musée de la Mine (La Machine) you can learn everything about the history of mining. Cities such as Decize, Château-Chinon, Nevers, Autun and Bibracte are definitely worth a visit. In the wine towns of Sancerre and Pouilly sur Loire you will find caves where you can taste the wines of this region.
