The farm is situated on a southern slope and offers a pleasant stay any time of the year. During the hot summers in the Ardeche, you can cool off under the trees or in the indoor lounge. Around the farm there is plenty of room for the children to play. There is a small, dead end road behind the house where there is little traffic. In the surrounding forest you can find delicacies such as raspberries, cherries, chestnuts, mushrooms.... If you walk further up the mountain you will come to the open mountain meadow of the volcano. Walk down the hill then through the woods to the village. Along the way you will walk beside the river where it is cool in summer. Just before the village there is a beautiful swimming area.
