Charming farmhouse 2 hours from Paris

A short distance from birdwatching, wildlife walks, and more, this family-friendly vacation home lets you experience it all. Jump into your car and make short work of the 22-minute drive to Sanctuary of St. Bernadette Soubirous of Nevers or the 22-minute drive to Convent of St. Gildard (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

Relax in the hot tub (enjoy the outdoor furniture!) or sip a drink in the garden of this 969-sq-ft vacation home. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and stereo.

As you settle into this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental, you'll find a living room, a dining area, a sofa bed, and a BBQ grill. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, a bidet, and towels. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And there's access to laundry facilities, so you can even pack a bit lighter.
