Open fire cooking
At La Lune Sauvage, we embrace the culinary arts by cooking over an open fire, utilizing nature's finest ingredients through wild foraging and plucking, ensuring each dish is infused with the essence of the surrounding landscape.
Indre, centrally located in France, with abundant greenery and unspoiled nature in the Loire region.
Just 30 minutes away from Châteauroux and within an hour's reach of enchanting cities like Tours, Blois, and Bourges, our location offers the perfect blend of countryside serenity and urban exploration. Nestled at a crossroads of convenience, you can easily indulge in city-tripping adventures while immersing yourself in the tranquility of the countryside.
The Parc Naturel Régional de la Brenne (25' away) spans a large part of the department. This extensive natural area with its many ponds is home to various attractions.
For instance, in the forests of Indre, you might stumble upon a picturesque château or catch sight of a deer drinking by one of the waters. Indre boasts numerous photogenic castles spread across its various towns.
Of course, the department also boasts beautiful towns and villages to explore. A must-visit is the stunning Châteauroux with its imposing city castle.
There is, therefore, much to see and experience in the department, named after the river that flows through it. This promises to enhance your holiday enjoyment even further.
