If you are a keen cyclist, you can take up the challenge ok the famous "Tour de France 4 headed monster" or just enjoy the Viarhôna which is great for families.

Ideal for families with children of all ages and pet friendly, the gite is equipped with trampoline, table tennis, American billard table, private south facing swimming pool (8X4 meters) garden and games.

Fun at lac du bourget
This area is stunning, very laid back with friendly people. The lake is so peaceful and just feeds the soul to be there. It’s our second year at one of Sarah and Claude’s properties so I think that speaks for itself x

A lovely weekend away!
We absolutely loved our stay at Sarah and Claudes. The property is stunning, with beautiful views of the mountains surrounding. The house is huge, and perfect for a weekend away, with all kinds of amenities (sauna, games). Communication was excellent, and Sarah and Claude were attentive hosts. We could not have asked for a better stay. Highly recommend!

Fantastic unspoilt hideaway
From the moment that we arrived we were spoiled, personally welcomed by Claude & Sarah at the door. They had left wine and cheese for the adults and apple & pear juice and cakes for the children all from the local area, which were a lovely start to this fabulous stay. The whole Gite was fantastic, split over 3 levels, in this quite hideaway, we could not have asked for more and were spoilt, after travelling onwards on our French summer vacation, it was further clear how good our stay was. It’s such a lovely quite area of France to stay, with so much on the door step, from watching the sunset at the top of the Col Du Grand Colombier, swimming in the nearby lakes, miles of rolling roads for cycling, tree top adventures and not forgetting the wine tasting. The Gite had everything we needed for a family of 5, all the games available, to the pool and perfect accommodation. We loved the Gite and hospitality so much, we have booked again with Claude & Sarah at one of there other Gites for next year for a full two weeks. Thank you Sarah & Claude.

Amazing villa !
The villa is absolutely amazing. Beautiful views of the Bugey, well located close to town, and also great features like the pool, trampoline, sauna and games room. Rooms are very confortable. We stayed for a cycling camp and we loved it ! We will definitely stay there again. Thank you !

Fantastic stay, exceptional property and great hosts
We stayed for a week during our honeymoon with our dog Harry. Sarah and Claude were great throughout from arranging arrival, local area tips, and even recommending and booking a restaurant. Great walks, shops, bakery (best croissants ever!) and friendly local bars nearby. Spectacular views and sunset from the terrace, comfy beds, very clean and well equipped house! Too cold for pool in March but we thoroughly enjoyed garden, terrace, sauna and games room for chilled out evenings. Highly recommended!

week end du 14 octobre pour 4 couples ayant la ciquantaine
gite très bien situé, pour ceux qui souhaitent se balader au pied du massif du colombier et au calme gite très bien équipé, on se croirait a la maison et en plus une magnifique vue sur les montagnes du bugey très belle terrasse abritée , on a pu en profiter toute la journée, du petit déjeuner au repas du soir un salon sejour + cuisine tres vaste et lumineux avec cheminée, TV et même une tablette avec une enceinte pour écouter de la musique sans déranger les voisins !!! une belle chambre au RDC avec TV et salle de bains individuelle équipée d'une baignoire d'angle et 3 chambre a l'étage avec 1 salle de bains commune une salle de jeux au sous sol avec billard et baby foot !!! nous n'avons pas pu profiter de la piscine et de ses transats, dommage les propriétaires sont charmants et très accueillants le prix est très correct, nous reviendrons sans hésiter !
