The gite is situated on the edge of the small hamlet of Ydes-Bourg, that has Gallo-Roman origins, surrounded by farmland and rolling hills. The village has a historic 12th century church, built by the Knight Templars, & is located next to the slow flowing Sumene river – a popular trout fishing river. The village is residential and has no shops although it is visited each day by a bread van, there are however shops, banks, post office, restaurants & a large Super U supermarket in the nearby town of Ydes (5 mins drive). The historic small town of Saignes is also only 5 mins drive away & also has a good range of small independent shops. The location is extremely tranquil, the predominant sound being the bells on the local Cantal cattle, and the surrounding roads see little traffic making them excellent for walking or cycling.
