Mountainbiking Walk the dog Bird watching Hiking

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy some peace and quiet and nature, then you’ve come to the right place. Nothing is a must—everything is allowed! From an elevation of 900 meters, you’ll have an incredible view of the Rhône Valley, with the French Alps in the background. It’s a great place to rest along the Grande Randonnée (GR 42) hiking trail. The Tiny House was built in 2022 and is fully equipped with all modern conveniences. We harvested wood from our own trees and used it to build the house. The water comes directly from our own spring. The Tiny House is located on the Domaine Les Soies estate in the northern Ardèche, about an hour from Lyon and Valence.

Nature and surroundings

The northern part of the Ardèche, known as Ardèche Vert, is unlike the south—it really is green here. The tiny house is nestled in the heart of nature, so you can start right away with a lovely hike or a fantastic mountain bike ride. Off-roading in your 4x4 or SUV is a fun way to explore the Ardèche—and one of the few places in France where it’s allowed. If you love peace and quiet, you’ve come to the right place. Want a little more action for a change? There are several villages in the area, with charming restaurants, good butchers, bakeries, and lovely markets featuring delicious local products. Of course, a day trip to Lyon or Valence is also an option. At Domaine Les Soies, Mangalitza sheep are raised on a small scale. These special animals are cared for with love and dedication by Bernardine and Johannes and are highly regarded by the finest restaurants.

    General rating: 10 /10

    A lovely, comfortable, cozy little house with a nice patio and plenty of grass around the house to sit or lie down on.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A beautiful spot surrounded by nature, nicely secluded. Very peaceful—nothing but the sounds of birds! Including nightjars and tawny owls. Plenty of opportunities for hiking right from the cottage.
    Stunning views, too!

What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
