Provence-Alpes-Côtes d'Azur, France
- 2 persons
- 1 bedroom
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
Our guest house is part of a large farm building and is very spacious and private, nestled in the Baronnies in the Southern French Alps on a secluded property. Ancolie has a bathroom equipped for people with disabilities. It is perfect for a couple or a single person. Like all four rooms, Ancolie has access to the spacious common room as well as a private terrace. All guests have access to all common areas, such as the outdoor and indoor kitchens, gardens, and dining areas. Emmanuel (French) and Geraldine (Australian) have lived on the property since 1992. Folco, a Frenchman, has joined us in the adventure of our eco-friendly household. Emmanuel, a mountain guide, has extensive knowledge of this region. He can help you choose hikes, bike trails, charming medieval villages to explore, or markets to enjoy.
Nature and surroundings
This region is where Provence meets the southern French Alps, so we get to enjoy both. It’s an ideal playground for nature lovers, with a wide variety of options for hiking and cycling—both off-road and on-road. There are many places to swim. It’s the perfect place for children, as they’re free to play indoors or outdoors. We have a playroom area specially equipped for children. Farming here consists of small, organic, family-run farms where they primarily raise sheep or goats and grow spelt wheat and lavender as well. You often get the impression that time slows down here, far from the crowds. We’re close to beautiful villages such as Orpierre (30 km), a hub for climbers, and Sisteron (45 km), considered the pearl of Provence, as well as some lesser-known villages that we love.

A beautiful and cozy room with plenty of space for us to use. The outdoor kitchen, with its view of the garden and hills, was our favorite part.
Een mooie en fijne kamer met veel ruimtes die we konden gebruiken. Vooral de buitenkeuken met uitzicht op tuin en heuvels was onze favoriet.
Les Planious is a beautiful, natural, and untamed place. It is a true paradise of tranquility and a love of nature.
Les Planious is een prachtige, natuurlijke en wilde plek. Het is een waar paradijs van stilte en liefde voor de natuur.
