Gîte du Bois I is a cosily furnished, comfortable gîte, where life is good all year round. Located on the outskirts of the authentic village of Egliseneuve d'Entraigues in the Puy-de-Dôme (Auvergne).
Semi-detached with Gîte du Bois II or 2-under-1-roof
Ground floor: kitchen, sitting area, dining area, 1st toilet & 1st terrace:
You enter the gîte through the fitted kitchen which is equipped with all appliances and necessities. Through the kitchen you enter the cozy, spacious sitting and dining area with a comfortable 3-seater sofa, 2 armchairs, coffee table, stereo/c.d. player, DVD player, flat screen TV with satellite connection, modern wood fireplace and a high dining table. Through the patio doors you walk onto the fully fenced wooden terrace at the rear -southeast side- of the gîte. Due to the location of this terrace, you can already benefit from the sun during breakfast. From the terrace you have a beautiful green, relaxing view and you can hear the babbling of the river that flows at the bottom of our site in the background. The terrace is equipped with garden furniture. There is a toilet on the ground floor, as well as in the bathroom upstairs.
The fixed, closed staircase leads to the first floor with a double bedroom with a comfortable double bed of 160x200 cm (2 separate mattresses and frames, box spings) and a built-in wardrobe. A bathroom with shower (shower in bath), bath, sink, toilet and radiator and a (children's) room with a bunk bed (both mattresses 90 x 200 cm) and storage space. Our beds all have good mattresses and 4 seasonal duvets.
In addition to the use of both terraces, you can use the entire fenced garden (approx. 4000 m2, shared). Guests of Maison van Stijn can reach the private river at the bottom of the property via a "natural, adventurous" staircase.
The gîte is excellently insulated (sound and heat) and can be heated well by means of fast-acting electric heating and a modern insert wood fireplace. Both in summer and winter it is therefore very pleasant in the temperature in the gite. The cottage is located a fifteen-minute drive from the ski slopes of Super Besse (medium-sized winter sports resort: Sancy). Firewood is available on site. The car can be parked on our private property.
Dogs are just as welcome with us as their owners. The gîte is located in an enclosed garden (communal) and has a fenced private terrace. Of course, the dog can also use the private river on our property. Within walking distance of the gîte there are 2 waterfalls and a swimming lake for the dog. The dog is allowed to run loose (almost) everywhere. There are countless beautiful walks to be made with plenty of shade and cooling. Exclusively for our guests, we have a large number of hikes available as GPX files for smartphone or hiking GPS. There is also a walking booklet in the gîte.
