About this location

Welcome to my little corner of nature, by the river. I welcome you to my shaded garden, ideal for a stopover in a tent or campervan. Whether you're traveling, hiking, or simply looking for a peaceful place for a night or a few days, you'll find a simple, friendly, and nature-conscious space. We have two pitches for campervans and three for tents. It's the perfect place to recharge, read, stargaze, or explore the surrounding area. I look forward to welcoming you!

Hello and welcome! I am a certified organic saffron producer in the Cévennes National Park. I create a range of gastronomic products infused with my saffron: local honey, syrup, craft beers, pear liqueur, and saffron-infused limoncello. I offer a free tasting in the garden, in the shade of the trees, to share my passion for this precious spice. Looking forward to welcoming you!
