This nature house is located in a beautiful nature reserve in the Ardèche and is housed in an old watermill dating back to 1727. The nature house is on the ground floor and has been renovated while preserving its authentic features. There is a sleeping/living area, a spacious kitchen with a fridge-freezer, oven/microwave, and 4 burners. There is also a dining table with 2 chairs, a shower with a sink, and a toilet. You will have complete privacy in the gîte, with its own entrance and garden. There is a small stream with a lovely spot to sit. Everything is included in the price. No additional costs. The house is situated in a peaceful, quiet natural setting from which you can take lovely walks. The village of St. Felicien is an 8-minute drive away. With e-bikes, it’s wonderful to cycle through the beautiful countryside.

    The owners of the cottage are incredibly friendly. You immediately feel very welcome and “at home.”
    The cottage is cozy, very practical, and comfortably furnished, and it’s spotless. Everything you need—or might need—is provided. The bed is wonderful.

    We hike a lot, and in that regard, you’ll be in heaven. Both in the immediate vicinity and about a half-hour drive away. Hikes of various distances, ranging from easy to challenging, with all kinds of elevation changes.

    We didn’t go cycling, but we did see a lot of cyclists. This area is also ideal for cycling.

    Du Moulin de Royer is situated in a beautiful spot. The road leading there is already very peaceful, and as you descend the final path, you find yourself in a small oasis. Surrounded by greenery and various large trees, there’s also plenty of open space thanks to the grassy area dotted with shrubs. An old little bridge spans the water, from which you can start a walk right away. Seating areas have been set up by the water, where you can enjoy the babbling water and the wind rustling through the trees. It’s a wonderful spot to sit and read or simply let your mind wander.
    The gîte also has a small fenced-in garden with a lockable gate, where your dog can lie down and run around off-leash. Outside of this area, dogs must be kept on a leash on the property. As far as we’re concerned, these are clear rules that work for everyone. And in that same little garden, there’s a covered patio—a wonderful spot to start the morning with coffee and breakfast and to have dinner in the evening.

    Beautiful surroundings; we went hiking and visited villages and churches. Very peaceful, with lovely spots to relax in the sun, in the shade, and by the little river Le Dardonne. Close to the central village of Saint-Félicien, with shops for groceries. Friendly gîte owners. Visited the town of Tournon on the Rhône River, and Lamastre and Desaigne.

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.
