Explore picturesque Saint-Vincent-de-Barrès (30 min drive), where narrow streets and old stone houses take you back in time. Discover Beauchastel (10 min drive), a photogenic village with steep streets and stunning views of the river. Each of these villages offers a unique atmosphere, local delicacies and beautiful scenery. A visit to all three will enrich your vacation, and because they are not too far away it is perfect for a day or half-day getaway!


Dolce Via cycling route.

This 90 km long bicycle tour leads you through the nature of the Ardèche. You will pass through the Eyrieux valley where robust boulders keep the river under control and where small waterfalls make a soothing splashing sound. Along the route you will find nice restaurants and cafes for a break, but also beautiful picnic spots. This makes the bike route also great to do with children.

Chocolate Museum

In the small town of Tain l'Hermitage, be surprised by a chocolate museum. In this interactive museum you will learn all about this delicacy. You will learn about the production of cocoa beans and the Madagascar plantation. And, of course, you have to taste. Scattered throughout the museum you can taste chocolate. In the store they sell all kinds of chocolate and in the restaurant they serve dishes that involve chocolate.

    De tent was boven verwachting groot (grotere tent dan de villatent wood in de beschrijving). We waren meteen blij verrast! Er was veel opbergruimte, een grote koelkast en goed vriesvak. De buiten BBQ was ook fijn. De ligging van de tent was top. Veel ruimte voor de tent en een leuk veldje.
