About this location

Privacy preserved.
Rental of two large, isolated and secure plots (40 ares in total), in the heart of a nature reserve, on the Tienne Morainy plateau near the Fondry des Chiens (remarkable natural site) to explore the Calestienne and the Forêt de Nismes.
La Calestienne is a limestone plateau at the junction of the French Ardennes and the Fagne, dating back 350 million years and of coral origin.
You are immersed in the heart of a nature reserve in very diverse, unique landscapes (plains, forests, bushes), surrounded by exceptional protected flora.
It's the "wild" atmosphere.
More than 300 paleogulfs are listed there.
The vast Ardennes forest of Nismes has preserved most of its natural heritage. However, you're just a 10-minute walk from the village via a very pretty, picturesque path for shopping, where all sorts of shops are available and open on Sundays for basic needs.
No traffic, no noise (distant); just wild nature.
Activities
A few minutes away, a small wooded path downhill takes you to the heart of the village, Nismes, where shops and cafes are open, even on Sundays.
Like a river that crosses the village, where it is possible to swim.
Marked walking maps are available.
In the region, there is the Ry de Rome lake, the Vieille forges lake, greenways, marked mountain bike trails, marked hiking trails, cultural visits, as well as the Jardin d'O in the village where there are boat trips, etc.
Other remarks
Firewood is an additional charge calculated at its fair value.
You can't have it all... Heavy vehicles are prohibited from entering the site: Those sleeping in roof tents or vans are allowed to bring them into the site in more or less dry weather.

Perfect for...

Groups of young or old, walkers, nature lovers, total change of scenery, loners, families

The site is easily accessible by car and has parking spaces. There are two large, separate plots to ensure privacy for each individual or group. The land is flat and easily accessible. Tents can be pitched wherever you like. Please note: I can only accommodate very small campervans or similar vehicles, such as a VW Transporter or similar model.

I like riding, horses, nature, therapy, philosophy, good taste without wealth
I hope that this project will be accessible to everyone, for groups of young people in particular so that they can recharge their batteries, "disconnect", have fun and simply free themselves among friends in the immensity of accessible nature.

Tips

Take a relaxing boat trip under the location in Parc D'Ô
A viewpoint with sunset juxtaposing the location: let yourself be lulled by the radiant heat of the rock in the evening and contemplate the broom of bats.
A small organic and artisanal market takes place every 15 days on the village square. By following the route on foot, you can sit on the terrace of a delicatessen (Rue des Juifs
There is no shortage of bars, terraces and restaurants (open very late) in the lively centre of the village.
The best French and traditional cuisine at a democratic price in a bucolic setting: La Bonne Auberge (book in advance!)
