Hello 👋!
I am Nathalie, 56 years old, a multi-entrepreneur passionate about health, people, encounters, and connections. I am married to Xavier, 56 years old, a business owner, massage therapist, and health prevention expert.
We have two boys, 22 and 27 years old.
It is also because we ourselves are passionate about Van Life, Nature, adventures, and travel, that we decided this year to share our little corner of paradise with you.
We travel around France in our Volkswagen Combi Van, and enjoy stopping off at local people's homes.
Our sports: sailing, windsurfing, regattas; and mountain biking.
It must be said that from our property we have access to a privileged playground for our mountain bike, road bike or hiking trips 🥾: The Monts du Lyonnais!
We look forward to welcoming you for a break at Les Elfes, a haven of nature, serenity, and rejuvenation. One or more nights spent in the countryside, a dip in the pool, or even a hike from the property or a visit to Lyon.
