The place known as Le Buisson is located just 4 Km from Briare and 2km from Châtillon-sur-Loire (shops and services).
La ferme du Buisson was built in the 1850s in the bank of the of the old Loire lateral canal. It belonged for a time to the compagny of the Lords of the canal, and served as a relay for the draft horses that towed the boats. sur la berge de l’ancien canal latéral à la Loire. The farm ceased to be a working farm several years ago. It is a haven of peace and tranquility, beside the Canal lateral à la Loire.
