The estate and the surroundings

The cottages of Clairbois and Vigerie are located on an area of more than 50 hectares of forest, in the heart of the region of Sologne des étangs, on the edge of the forest of Bruadan.


The cottages are close to the castles of the Loire: 30 minutes from the majestic castle of Chambord,30 minutes from that of Cheverny - the castle of Tintin - and 45 minutes from Blois, whose castle is both famous for its staircase and for having been the scene of the assassination of the Duke of Guise. History buffs or lovers of beautiful stones, these getaways will make you happy!
