Familie Lardy
To live in a Troglodyte is a special adventure and gives you the possibility lo live closely with and inside the nature. Nothing is normal, but everything is possible. Discover a new feeling of life and forget your stress in daily life. Embedded in the beautiful valley of Loire and surrounded with many castles, vineyard and medieval towns, lays our Troglodyte “Papillon”. As the name says, there are many butterflys to admire. They are scrimmaging in the sunny garden and are giving a paradise atmosphere. As guest everything is available for you. You can use the sun lounger in the garden and the grill for barbecue. For children there are toys, too (i.e. Wendy house, etc.). The Troglodyte has three bright rooms with high anticlinal walls which are natured and procuring a snugly feeling. This is strengthen through a big castle chimney. There is space for three people in a double bed and singe bed room. Two more place are on a couch for guests. In the kitchen is all needed equipment available, such as modern utensils. The bathroom has a big shower and is built at the stone.
The Troglodyte is a bit out of the village Luynes and surrounded by many hidden parcel and other Troglodytes which are waiting to discover. You can jump into the real French lifestyle. The city centre of Luynes with its traditional bakeries and butcheries are available by foot. The next supermarket “Super U” is also in Luynes but better to reach by car. To the river Loire you can walk. Over there you can find nice places for picnics and angling. Further nearby it is more rural. You can see horses which are on paddock the whole year such as fields, forests and a romantic mill with a nice beck.
