“Après une arrivée en empruntant une route.... délicate, nous arrivons dans un lieu magnifique, restauré en conservant le cachet des vielles pierres. Les hôtes sont aux petits soins et concoctent un très bon repas pris sur la terrasse ombragée.”

Company information

We are Sébastien and Stéphanie, nature lovers who value simplicity and meaningful connections. What we love most about what we do is welcoming travelers like friends, sharing moments over a homemade meal, and having conversations about life, travel, or the beauty of the Cévennes. We also have a passion for photography, woodworking, gardening, and everything related to well-being. Our greatest joy is seeing our guests leave feeling rested, recharged, smiling, and light-hearted. Here, everything is designed to make you feel at home… only better! In short, you may come for just one night… but you’ll leave wanting to come back!
