This tastefully renovated cottage is nestled right in the heart of the typical rural and friendly village of Villepail. Ideally located in the Pays de Loire region of France. La Maison Tranquille provides an ideal base to explore some of the most beautiful and historic sites in France.

 

Accommodation. With all the conveniences of a modern home, yet still retaining its original features, La Maison Tranquille has a very spacious and comfortable appeal. The cottage boasts 2 large bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen and bathroom and a vast lounge/diner, enjoying wonderful views of the garden and green valley beyond.

 

Set within 2 acres of land, the cottage has its own private courtyard, bbq and large lawned area. The rest of the garden is made up of large flower borders, vegetable plot and fruit orchard. We also keep free range chickens, geese and sheep (lambs in spring and summer) and we sell eggs, seasonal fruit and vegetables to our guests.

 

The village has a well stocked fishing lake, boules pitch and many forest nature walks. The baker calls outside the door 3 times a week, the grocery and butcher vans call on Thursdays at the front of the church and the local market is in Villaines-La-Juhel every Monday.

 

Villaines-La-Juhel is only 6km away and has a supermarket, swimming pool, pleasure lake, fishing lake, play park and many bars and restaurants. Other local activities include horse riding, golf and water sports nearby.

 

Sille-La-Guillaume Plage, the pretty villages of the Alpes Mancelles, La-Fert-Mace, Bagnoles-de-L'Orne and Mayenne are all within ½ hour. Le Mans, the ferry port of Caen and the Normandy beaches can all be reached in 1½ hours.

"20 mins from the cottage. This is a historical roman town with a Roman excavation you can see. "

'Lassay les Chateaux'
"Approx 20 mins from the cottage and is very popular with our guests. You can take a trip round the chateau and the rose garden in early summer is beautiful. The church should also be on you list of things to see in this pretty town. "

'Le Mans'
"Le Mans is a little further at approx 1h 15 mins away but well worth the trip with lots to visit including the ancient church, the Le Mans 24 race track and lots of shops. "

"Or "coco plage" is 45mins from the cottage and has something for everyone. There is a sandy beach with safe swimming, lots of water sports including canoeing. There are some restaurants, but if you prefer a picnic you will find lots of picnic benches provided in the wooded area. The children will have great fun with pony treks and a train ride. "

'St Leonard du Bois'
"And the villages of the Alpes Mancelles are only about 20mins away and some of the most stunning forest and countryside with lots of walks and nature trails. If you want to be more active and are experienced then you can go canoeing down the rapids or try the Tree-top Trail ending in a monkey slide to the ground. "
