Looking for the perfect holiday and retreat location in the heart of rural France, which is unspoilt by tourism, steeped in history and legend and still adopts the traditional French lifestyle? You will not be disappointed by visiting this region. La Platriere is situated near the borders of Cher in the Centre and the Nievre in Burgundy, which means you can enjoy the best of these 2 regions as well as all that Auvergne has to offer, such as the renowned forest of Troncais, the Bourbonnais castles and chateaux, the 2 volcanic parks and mountains of the Central Massif, the thermal spas, and not forgetting to mention the numerous lakes, rivers, gorges, and medieval villages and towns. Add to this the gastronomic delights of traditional French cuisine, superb cheeses and some of the finest wines in the world - your holiday will be an unforgettable delightful experience!

The property itself consists of a large house offering Chambres d’hôtes (bed & breakfast), and adjoining cottage for holiday rental. Both are set within 3 acres of gardens, in a delightful, secluded position within rural countryside 4 kms from the nearest town of Lurcy-Levis. Guests are welcome to use the large swimming pool, and petanque. Being in an elevated position the house offers stunning views across rolling, green countryside.

We are only 28 kms from the Formula One race circuit at Magny-Cours so within easy reach for those wishing to visit the  major events held there such as the Bol d'Or endurance bike event, or the annual world championship superbike events. There is also a circuit at Lurcy-Levis only 4kms away. We are only 25 kms from the A71/75, now the most direct and cheapest route to the South, crossing the Millau Bridge.
