With its rolling hills, medieval cities and spectacular scenery, the region of Aisne makes the perfect setting for an idyllic stay in the French countryside. And sitting in the peaceful village of Bucy-le-Long, this home has all the elements required for a restorative retreat – one that will ensure you’re left feeling relaxed from the moment of arrival.

From the soft lighting and calm palette of colours to the snug bedrooms and laid-back terrace, every detail has been considered to enrich your stay with comfort and ease. So whether you’re enjoying some light-hearted family fun in the games room (equipped with table tennis, darts and books), relaxing in the living room or sipping drinks in the fresh air, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own.

Days can be spent hiking or cycling through the surrounding countryside, admiring the Gothic architecture in nearby Soissons (just a short drive away) or strolling through the spectacular hilltop city of Laon – less than a thirty-minute drive away.
