La Bergerie, charming accommodation in rural tranquility

La Bergerie is a restored shepherd's cottage in a peaceful rural location surrounded by trees, fields and forest. Located next to the Lac de Rillé , a lake designated by the Council of Europe as a special wetlands for migratory birds, and adjacent to mixed forest which stretches all the way to the Loire Valley, this is an ideal location for bird watching, fishing, cycling and walking. Perfectly located for many of the most beautiful chateaux in France which are only half an hour to an hour away.

Appropriately called the 'garden of France', the Loire Valley is a patchwork of rich agricultural land and beautiful forests, where life seems frozen in time and local farmers still work the fields and forests in the old ways.

Enjoy the permaculture gardens and secluded picnic areas by the river, or relax among sub tropical plants in our orangery. If you rise early you may see the blue flash of kingfishers on the river, hear the golden oriole and hoopoes and watch the frogs and newts in the river and pond.
