L’accueil chaleureux de Stéphanie et Sébastien, l’ambiance paisible et familiale qu’ils ont réussi à donner à ce lieu magique, l’emplacement complètement perdu au milieu des Cévennes, la qualité des dîners ♥️

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.

Le site est exceptionnel, magnifique. L'architecture du bâtiment est resté comme à l'origine de ces constructions et c'est vraiment très beau. Les chambres sont modestes mais très propres. Les hôtes sont très accueillants et sympathiques. Je...

Un vrai coup de cœur ! L’accueil était aux petits oignons, chaleureux et authentique comme on aime. La chambre était impeccable, confortable et pleine de charme — un vrai cocon pour recharger les batteries. Et le petit déjeuner ? Une pépite !...
