About this property

"EL BAYOU" cosy wooden cottage for 2 people on the edge of the forest

"LES GITES EN BOIS DU LIGNON"

Cosy chalet "EL BAYOU" of 30 m2, independent, built in 2024 (all equipment is new).
Fully fitted kitchen;
Chest bed 140X200 and sofa bed 140X200 (comfortable bedding);
Bathroom (shower), separate toilet;
2 kms walk from the centre of Le Chambon (by road or forest path);
Wooden terrace with a view of the forest.

Quiet, on the edge of a charming hamlet.
Ideal for quiet stays, without feeling isolated (other chalets nearby, minimum 25m between each house).
For nature lovers, enjoy beautiful hikes in forests and mid-mountains, while being lucky enough to have a village nearby renowned for its cultural dynamism and its tourist welcome.
Several sports activities possible nearby in the region:
- Summer: Tennis, Golf, Mountain biking, Trail running, Swimming, Paragliding, Summer sledging, Horseback riding, Tree climbing, water sports (Lake nearby)...
- Winter: Hiking, Dog sledding, Sledging, Cross-country skiing, Snowshoeing...
Come and breathe the fresh mountain air and regain energy thanks to an altitude ranging from 874 to 1139m.
Not forgetting, for amateurs, the history of Chambon-sur-Lignon, marked by an extraordinary spirit of resistance.... The rest to discover for yourself.
