Magnificent Gîte in the heart of the Ardèche Verte region

An enchanted interlude in the heart of the Ardèche Verte, the "Gîte de Chaude Oreille" - an elegantly renovated former barn with all modern comforts - is an invitation to get away from it all and recharge your batteries in the heart of nature.

Just 10 minutes from the Rochepaule bathing site and situated on the Saint-Régis way, this old farmhouse bears the name given to it by its exceptional exposure and micro-climate: "Chaude Oreille". Down below, the charming Val d'Or brook crosses the GR footpath for a delightful and refreshing stop-off for hikers, or if you're feeling adventurous, the ascent or descent of the stream is full of surprises!

Separate from the main farmhouse, the gîte is designed to offer its guests space, light, beauty and comfort.

From the moment you enter, you'll love the bright 41 sq. metre living/dining/kitchen area with cathedral ceilings, the 2 spacious, refined bedrooms and the outdoor terrace lounge.
