About this property

The Cavernacle

  • Discover this 50 m² troglodyte refuge, dug a few steps from the keep of Montrichard, not far from the medieval city. Enjoy an authentic atmosphere, with its freestone walls and rustic decoration inspired by the rural world. Here, you live a timeless experience, ideal for relaxing and getting away from it all.

    Ideal for two people, this accommodation can accommodate up to four travellers thanks to the sofa bed in the living room.

    Enjoy a comfortable 50 m² including a bright living room, a fully equipped kitchen (sink, oven, microwave, hob, fridge, coffee machine, toaster, kettle, crockery and utensils), as well as a cosy bedroom. A speaker and a connected TV are also at your disposal.

    The bathroom, dug into the rock, has a large sink and an open shower for an authentic experience.

    You will have private access to the entire accommodation. Garden furniture and the above-ground swimming pool are exclusively at your disposal. The courtyard, shared with the owner's house, remains a friendly space where everyone can enjoy their privacy. Access is easy thanks to a secure key box, allowing you to arrive independently.

    In this troglodyte accommodation, you will enjoy a pleasant natural freshness all year round. The humidity can vary according to the season, which is part of the character of this type of housing. The air quality can therefore sometimes be different from that of a traditional house.

    This atypical accommodation is above all for those who want to live an authentic experience, different from the classic comfort of an ordinary house. I would be delighted to welcome you and make you discover all the unique charm of this place. I wish you an excellent stay!

Ein toller Aufenthalt in einer ebenso originellen wie gemütlichen Höhlenwohnung. Sehr nette, diskrete Gastgeber, die für alle Fragen parat waren. Wir und unser Hund haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt.
