About this property
The Barn at La Fouette - 542 Chemin de la Bombine 07140 Montselgues
The BARN at La Fouette
Escape to an ancient restored barn, imaginatively modernised. It sleeps 5, with tiled bathroom and 3 double bedrooms giving onto a large studio living space and kitchen. Private entrance, balcony and terrace within large garden and magnificent views across fields and mountains. Perfect for walking, fishing, cycling, canoeing, riding - and bathing in rivers close to their source. Delicious local produce from restaurants and markets across the region. For reservations we have found that most of our clients prefer to book Saturday to Saturday so in July/August we can only accept bookings on that basis. The property is not suitable for children under the age of 5.

About the host
Hosted by Roland and Veronica Brinton
We are English but also fluent French speakers [plus some Spanish!] and we love to share our enthusiasm for this unique part of "la France profonde". We keep a comprehensive collection of suggestions for events and activities of every kind - from concerts to paragliding. We are always happy to help.
Why they chose this property
The Barn is part of one of the most historic local properties - originally on the route of the "transhumance" the way taken by drovers from valley to mountain pastures according to the seasons. At 1100 metres there are views from the Barn to well over 100k and apart from many birds of prey watch for foxes, hare, wild boar and all kinds of other fauna.
What makes this property unique
There is an auberge/restaurant just 1 km up the road but proper shopping is a 40 minute drive away. A car is obligatory!
There is a good mobile telephone signal around the property which everyone uses for internet access.
We are right in the middle of the Cevennes National Park - an area of outstanding natural beauty with some of the best "Grandes Randonnees" walking/treking routes in France.
There is no public transport, so a car is a must - although you can hire two wheels, horses or a donkey for longer treks.
