On a beautiful mountain road with enormous views you climb steadily to the farm with its two nature houses (the last 300 meters without asphalt). The residents of this farm can tell you everything about this (and further) environment. Do you want to know what silence sounds like? Do you feel like taking an hour-long walk without meeting a human being? Or what vegetables, mushrooms from the land taste like? Then be a guest at this small-scale organic farm in the heart of the Parc National des Cevennes. The farm's thirty-acre property is sandwiched between two wildly flowing streams where a flock of sheep and ponies graze. Here are the two nature houses: these are old renovated sheep barns and have a space of about 60 m². They are completely self-sufficient nature houses with their own entrance and private terrace, they are located a little distance from each other.
Nature and surroundings
This nature house offers an ideal base for exploring the region. Just from the front door into the mountains, or: Canoeing in the Gorge du Tarn, skiing on the Mont Lozere, or cycling and hiking in one of the last untouched nature reserves in this part of Europe. Of course, you can also choose to walk the route as R.L. Stevenson did before you (GR 70) in 1878; in the company of a donkey. The plateaus of the Cevennes reminded him strongly of Scotland and he was very fascinated by the religious war that had raged in the area in the early 18th century, during the time of Louis the fourteenth.There are several organizations or private individuals in the area where you can reserve a donkey. Of course, the landlords can also organize it for you with their fellow farmers.

The house is fully equipped, and the surroundings are pure nature.
Haus komplett ausgestattet, Umgebung Natur pur.
A secluded, traditional farmhouse—ideal for spending undisturbed time with your loved ones. It’s best to bring everything you need; shopping would be a waste of time. You can get fresh mushrooms from the owners—they’re such lovely people. Communication is no problem; they speak German, English, Dutch, and French.
Einsam gelegener traditioneller Hof, ideal um ungestört Zeit mit seinen Lieben zu verbringen. Am Besten alles nötige mitbringen, Einkaufen wäre Zeitverschwendung. Frische Pilze gibt es bei den Besitzern, ganz liebe Menschen. Kein Problem mit der Kommunikation, es geht auf deutsch, englisch, niederländisch und französisch.

The house really has everything you need and is very cozy. In the garden there is a wonderful hammock, a rocking chair and a table with chairs.
Das Haus bietet wirklich alles, was du brauchst, und ist sehr gemütlich. Im Garten gibt es eine wunderbare Hängematte, einen Schaukelsessel und einen Tisch mit Stühlen.
We had three wonderful weeks in the peace and seclusion of the Cevennes. Leonore and Charles are wonderful hosts. If you are looking for peace and nature, you are in very good hands here. We hiked a lot in the surrounding area.
Wir hatten drei traumhafte Wochen in der Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit der Cevennen. Leonore und Charles sind wunderbare Gastgeber. Wer Ruhe sucht und Natur, ist hier sehr gut aufgehoben. Wir sind viel in der Umgebung gewandert.

The cottage is beautifully situated at the end of one of the valleys in the Cevennes. The road leading to it is in itself breathtaking. Inside, the cottage is fully equipped with a washing machine and dishwasher. Be careful to sit outside by yourself on hot days (when not enjoying the surroundings) and keep all windows and doors closed during the day to keep most of the heat out. In the evening it invariably cools down after that. This makes the stay pleasant even on very hot days. This place is highly recommended if you love peace and quiet and beautiful views.
Het huisje ligt prachtig aan het eind van één van de valleien in de Cevennes. De weg ernaartoe is op zichzelf al adembenemend. Van binnen is het huisje van alle gemakken voorzien met een was- en afwasmachine. Goed opletten dat je op warme dagen zelf buiten zit (als je niet van de omgeving geniet) en alle ramen en deuren overdag dicht houdt om de meeste warmte buiten te houden. 's Avonds koelt het daarna steevast af. Hierdoor is het verblijf ook op hele warme dagen aangenaam.
Deze plek is een absolute aanrader als je houdt van rust en prachtige vergezichten.What a wonderful place to spend our vacation. So much peace and quiet and space, fantastic. We took some lovely walks, went swimming or lounged in and around the house in the hammock or hammock bag. This place really has something for everyone, which was all made a lot easier by Charles and Leonore's tips on where to be in the area (and what exactly to see, from granite gardens to limestone or slate). Thank you for letting us stay here and for the tips on the area.
Wat een heerlijke plek om onze vakantie door te brengen. Zoveel rust en ruimte, fantastisch. We hebben een aantal heerlijke wandelingen gemaakt, lekker gezwommen of in en om het huis lekker geluierd in de hangmat of hangzak. Deze plek heeft echt voor ieder wat wils.
Dat was allemaal een stuk makkelijker door de tips van Charles en Leonore waar je in de omgeving moet zijn (en wat je nu precies ziet, van graniettuinen tot kalk- of leisteen). Dank jullie wel dat we hier mochten logeren en voor de tips over de omgeving.This text is automatically translated.
