The Shaggy Boar | House in Mézières-en-Brenne
4 Bedroom House in Mezieres-en-Brenne, Mézières-en-Brenne
This former café-restaurant was renovated and reopened in 2019 as an eco-culinary country retreat. The spaces have been redesigned to combine modernity, comfort, and privacy. This “third place,” located in the heart of the village within the Brenne Regional Nature Park (Land of a Thousand Lakes), is ideal for organizing culinary getaways, nature vacations, and hiking trips—or simply getting away from it all to finish the final chapters of a novel...
A simple, vintage-inspired decor featuring heirloom furniture with a story to tell.
Four bright and colorful bedrooms equipped with high-end bedding made from natural materials, cotton sheets, and plush pillows.
2 bathrooms with showers, one of which features a dry toilet
1 living room and a library where you can enjoy the tranquility and the gentle murmur of the stream that runs alongside the building.
A modern and functional kitchen with two movable islands, all new and high-performance appliances (detailed list available upon request), and a large dining table.
A spacious and cozy living-dining room adjoining the kitchen, featuring a wood-burning stove with a water heater
A flower-filled terrace with a vegetable garden, tucked away facing the woods and overlooking the water—perfect for lunch, dinner, or sunbathing.
Unplugged mode: No TV, but high-speed fiber-optic Wi-Fi throughout the entire building.
This house is not a rental investment; it is part of an effort to revitalize the local area. This space was restored to breathe new life into a historic café-restaurant—which opened in 1899 and closed permanently in 2014—to stimulate economic activity in the region and foster synergy within the village. Every piece of furniture and every object has a story; none are placed here by chance. The renovation was planned and carried out with an eye toward future environmental challenges (water scarcity, the end of fossil fuels, food self-sufficiency, etc.). This house invites a sense of serenity and calls for respect.
In the heart of the village, just a few minutes’ walk from shops (newsstand/delicatessen/grocery store/bakery/pharmacy, café, restaurant…), the tourist office, the post office, and bike rentals.
Just a stone’s throw from a playground, a bocce court, and an electric vehicle charging station
