Woodside Townhouse

Holiday Rental Description

Situated between Livradois-Forez and Parc naturel régional des Volcans d'Auvergne, this beautiful townhouse in the heart of Billom beckons nature lovers to escape to the hiking trails, accessible by car in under an hour. Walk through canopied forests, admire the native vegetation, and breathe in the fresh air before returning home to rest your tired legs.

Don’t forget to stop off at a bakery for freshly-baked pastries to savour at the kitchen island once you get in. Nurse a cup of coffee, or take it all outside to enjoy alfresco on the L-shaped terrace furniture. Out there, you can spend hours simply enjoying each other’s company over a glass of wine, or you can slip away on your own whenever you need a few minutes to yourself. Bookworms will delight in the wall of books – pick a favourite and read outside where you can bask in the sunshine.

Understated and modern, this home has a minimal approach and the combination of a neutral colour palette, plenty of natural elements – wood is the dominating feature in this home – and ample light creates a feeling of honesty that’s endearing and relaxing.

When you’re not taking afternoon naps in one of the large bedrooms on the upper floors, you can enjoy drinks outside at sunset, or head out to Billom for a wander, a bite to eat, and a souvenir shopping spree.
