Description

You prefer, to the company of the crowds, that of the Lamas and the wild animals in freedom?
Our little caravan will please you. It is nestled in our 7 hectares of meadows, woods and scrubland, away from the eyes, noise and pollution... in the sun in mid-season, in the shade of the chestnut trees in the hot season.
In the surroundings : wild rivers, medieval villages, hiking trails, climbing sites, paragliding...

The setting

Meadows, chestnut trees, scrubland, 150 meters from any road and housing.
>>> Reserved for stays of 2 nights ... or more.

The spots

From 2010 to 2018, our friends Nadine (guitarist) and Paulo (violinist) have toured the villages of the Monts d'Ardèche, with their tractor, this caravan, a band of musician friends and the tent of their "travelling ball".
Each summer, they played a dozen concerts and travelled more than 250 km!
Getting older, they continue their adventure at the wheel of a more modern vehicle... and have entrusted us with their caravan so that other "adventurers" can in turn enjoy it.
This old washerwoman's trailer is light, bright, cheerful, cozy and favors, as in a tepee, a direct contact with the surrounding nature.
Inside: sleeping area (140 x 190 - not suitable for very tall people!), kitchen area (spring water supply - we also provide a supply of guaranteed drinking water), removable table, lighting + 12V socket, storage boxes.
Outside: snack area, solar shower, 7 hectares of private land.

The sanitary facilities

At 150 meters from the caravan : WC + bathroom in free access.

The amenities

In the caravan, all the necessary to cook.
Lighting + 12 volts USB plug (to charge your phones).
In a room with free access, next to our house: refrigerator, freezer, washing machine, WIFI, 220 volts electric plugs.
At your disposal, for occasional use: small swimming pool accessible to calm and reasonable people, board games or outdoor games (petanque, mölkky, Frisbee...) + a mountain bike.

The activities

From May to November, you can enjoy the products of our woods according to the season: cherries, strawberries, raspberries, plums, figs, apples, blackberries, hazelnuts, grapes, chestnuts, mushrooms ... (in free "moderate" harvest) and/or on request, from our garden.
In the surroundings: many and varied outdoor activities - rivers for fishing, swimming, hiking for all levels, mountain biking, climbing sites, paragliding, many tourist sites and heritage to visit.
We provide you with tourist guides and maps of the many local hiking routes.

Other things

>>> Reserved for stays of 2 nights or more.
Bed 2 places 140x190 cm : we provide you with a comforter, pillows & blankets, but in this period of pandemic we will ask you to come with your own bed linen and towels.
Domestic animals (cows, horses, llamas) and wild animals (badgers, wild boars, genets, weasels...) occasionally frequent the surroundings. They are calm and peaceful, as long as they are not disturbed!
We ask you to leave the premises clean and tidy as you found them - we will take care of the washing and cleaning after your departure.
In the event of a significant mess, 30€ will be deducted from your deposit to cover the cost of cleaning and tidying up.
