With this holiday rental near Angers in Maine-et-Loire, you can stay in a beautiful building, a former farm belonging to Soucelles Castle.
The village of Soucelles is situated in the ‘Basses vallées angevines’, wetlands of international importance that form part of the Natura 2000 network and are renowned for their rich biodiversity. A peaceful setting close to nature, yet just 20 minutes from Angers!
The restored house, with a floor area of 120m², is built in the local style, featuring oak beams, exposed stonework, slate roofing and low stone walls around the perimeter…

Outside, there is a large gravel courtyard enclosed by a gate, with various areas where you can relax depending on the weather: garden furniture to enjoy the shade of the beautiful tree, or under the leafy pergola where a second seating area awaits you in case of hot weather. A lawned area is accessible via a few steps. A communal play area is situated about fifty metres from this lawned area but is not visible from the courtyard. A barbecue, deckchairs and a table tennis table are also at your disposal to help you make the most of your holiday.
