“Les Bouilles” lies within the beautiful Gorges de la Sioule. The Sioule river runs for 150km, passing through the Auvergne, and brings to the area the chance to enjoy bathing, fishing and canoeing, kayaking or to walk along its banks to observe the wildlife – the roe-deer and wild boar which come to refresh themselves there. You can relax and enjoy a meal or a drink at one of the local bars and restaurants. Ebreuil (approximately a 10 minute drive from Les Bouilles) offers you the opportunity to play tennis or practice your horsemanship. The richness of the fauna and flora of this valley, added to the cultural heritage of the area makes for a peaceful and relaxing holiday.
Les Bouilles is about 6 hours by car from the ferry terminal and tunnel at Calais. The route from Calais is straightforward being all on excellent French motorways which never seem unduly clogged. By air the nearest 'Ryan Air' airports are at St Etienne or Limouge. Both are about 2 to 2.5 hours from the house.
