Ferme des Croq'Epines - Parcel Tiny House

TINY HOUSE IN THE HEART OF TOURAIN

A bubble of softness in a charming organic goat farm

On the road to the castles of the Loire Valley and only 1 hour from Tours, enjoy a natural setting. Here at the Croc'Epines Farm, Alexandra - who dreamed of being a veterinarian - lovingly raises a small herd of about 50 goats to produce a delicious cheese. Concerned about the well-being of her animals, her farm is also a refuge where the goats live a peaceful life. It is in this adorable farm in the Loire Valley, that you will be able to stay in your Tiny House in the countryside.

Enjoy a rejuvenating stay and live in the country of the goats.
