Very extensive country village, Bully takes place in the Loire, about seventy kilometers from Saint-Etienne. It is located above the coal basin of the Loire, not far from Cordelle, Cremeaux or Souternon.

Mainly agricultural, the town still unveils today a dozen farms, including one specialized in the production of Charolais meat recognized for its taste and quality. After a relatively peaceful history, today it attracts tourists wishing to enjoy the quiet of the countryside and get away from the tumult of the city. The village is appreciated for its greenery, its preserved exceptional landscapes, but also for its offer of rich and varied leisure activities.

Paradise for hikers and outdoor sports lovers, Bully also impresses with its proximity to some of the most beautiful sites in the region.
