A building steeped in history...

La Lipomerie | The Lipomerie concept

Once a fortified farmhouse, La Lipomerie has become, in its own time, a beautiful residence housed within a coherent group of buildings that reflect its past rural prosperity.

Inherited from one family to another since the 16th century, until my arrival four years ago, I was charmed by the simplicity and solidity of such an elegant house. Under its four-sided roof, thick stone walls and rustic elements, this is a house where time stops, and where we are confronted to our own fleetingness in light of its centenary existence. This house inspires tranquillity. Within its spaces, in front of a fireplace, guests can feel the peaceful and modest history of this homestead. Time comes to a halt, and worries are shunned.

in harmony with nature

In the heart of its four-hectare estate, La Lipomerie's guest rooms live in harmony with nature: alongside the old apple press barn, a permaculture vegetable garden, beehives, a farmyard and a small flock of hardy, affectionate Thomes and Mortens sheep; grasslands populated with species and species for food or decoration, bordered by living cordon fences of fruit trees. These bear witness to the infinite richness of our arboreal heritage, and delight us with their thirty species of apples and pears. Nature is generous.

your host

La Lipomerie | The Lipomerie concept

As a healthcare professional, a caregiver with a strong attachment to human relationships, and a mother of four, I was struck by hyper-acousia following a singular accident, which made life in Paris difficult for me. The need for calm and silence, for a better living connection with nature and to be able to share it, led me to La Lipomerie. 

 

Here, in this rural region, I'm building a simple life, punctuated by the seasons, listening to the earth, the sun, the rain, the animals, the insects, the fruit and the trees. My permaculture vegetable garden makes me dream of self-sufficiency, of food that feels good to the body. My beehives teach me that we too are part of a whole, where each individual contributes to a greater purpose.

Just like permaculture, it is my belief that knowledge can be cultivated, and that it can grow and prosper in order to create abundance. This house contributes to that growth with all its being and through its ancient history.

To visit La Lipomerie is to partake in a realm that nourishes, repairs and elevates us.
