Taillanderie

A few hundred metres from the Ideal Palace of the Facteur Cheval, it is in an old restored taillanderie that the gite - from which it takes its name - and two year-round rentals are located. There is no opposite with the outside spaces of the 2 rentals.

Ideally located 1 hr from Grenoble, 1 hr 15min. from Lyon, 40 min. from Valence TGV station. Gîte within easy walking distance of shops/services. The Drôme des Collines has a rich heritage and lots of local produce. Hauterives is 7km from the Foyer de Charité of Marthe Robin (Catholic mystic) & 30km from medieval village of Saint-Antoine l'Abbaye, classed as one of the loveliest villages in France. It is also the departure point for many hiking trails & mountain bike routes. Wine lovers can visit many prestigious Crozes-Hermitage cellars, such as Chapoutier or Jaboulet. Youngsters will like the Cité du Chocolat (Valrhona) at Tain l'Hermitage (30km). Hauterives is only 30 min. from exit 12 off A7 motorway.
