Situated 15 minutes from Angers, Ferme de l'Espoir is a peaceful spot ideal for a family or couples holiday, far from the noise and stress of the city.
Set in the heart of a former farm, the Espoir self-catering cottage is on the first floor of a restored Anjou farmhouse, above the owners' home. The setting is pleasant and the atmosphere peaceful, so you can make the most of your holiday in the countryside. The private garden is fully enclosed, ideal for children to play in!
