About this property

The holiday nest you were dreaming, "warmth of wood" - Appart 4-6 pers.

The woods in our mountain forests lavish our studio flat with a very warm atmosphere.
At the foot of the mountains, with a balcony above the water level of the Serre-Ponçon dam, without being lost in the middle of nowhere and usually in one of the best climates of France: Presently, we are talking of more than 300 days of sunshine per year.
As well equipped as 'at home': Ground floor: dishwasher, electric oven and microwave, induction cooker, fridge and freezer, washing machine, wood stove, flat screen TV + sound bar, Bluetooth, and blue-ray player. Sleeping capacities: 140 x 200 cm reclining sofa (living room) + 2 double bedrooms (140 x 190 cm beds). If you are staying with a baby or a toddler, we shall provide for the 'appropriate sleeping equipment.
Spring, summer, autumn: Lake of the Serre-Ponçon Dam, river Durance, kilometres of walking and hiking, mountain biking, horse riding, etc., natural and cultural sites, architecture, worship, Via-Alta (www.via-alta.com), Aerial sports at less than 40 mn.
Summer: there are so many things to do on the Serre-Ponçon lake, you can carry out all the aquatic activities you like, including the most exciting (have you ever flown through Europe's largest water reservoir with an ultra light seaplane?). La Durance is the river on which you will carry out all the imaginable white water activities, mountain biking in all its forms in nearby mountain resorts, and many other things to discover.
Ah! We almost forgot, you could also stay and do nothing. Just enjoy spending time in a beautiful jewel box.
Winter: Ski resorts nearby are, Les Orres (20mn) Réallon (20 mins), Crévoux (25 mins), Risoul (35 mins), Vars (40 min), and other equally renowned places although a little further away, but the best: La Grave - La Meige (3600 m alt.) a 1hr 15mins drive.
Lots of fun!

Region magique que je vous invite à découvrir. Le chalet est conforme à la description et très bien placé. Le jardin est petit mais le sauna et le jacuzzi sont un vrai plus. Je conseille cette location.

About the host

Hosted by Catherine - Vincent CARBOU – La Maison AuBoisdebout

Host profile image
Winter: Vincent who is a ski instructor and mountain guide will be happy to advise you on the 'latest spots'. He can help you progress in skiing, downhill, cross or hiking, assist you with snowshoeing, and why not, during icy nights with full moon or stormy nights give you few hours ride to make you feel alive while following in the footsteps of mountain hare, fox, and maybe a boar, all taunted by the owl.
Other seasons: we can advise you on the best white water, water area, and hiking 'spots' as well as fun and/or memorable 'sites'. Indicate where you want to go and what you want to see (wildlife, flora, birds, etc.) and you can be accompanied, if you wish, to visit local producers, remarkable craftsmen, etc.

Why they chose this property

Catherine and Vincent love to offer a haven of tranquillity to our visitors in a wooden house (wooden frame) and from ‘start to finish’, the ‘deco’ reveals that a lot of care has been invested in its construction. We live on the other side of the road and we can occasionally ‘recommend’ you good ideas, no matter the season.

What makes this property unique

At the foot of the Embrunais mountains, enveloped in rural tranquillity, you will not have enough eyes to admire the peaks or Lake of the Serre-Ponçon dam as well as the 'sunny side' and 'shady' forests, not enough ears to listen to rural silence, and will need to keep on your sun glasses around for some 300 days a year, this is the number of sunny days we enjoy. This climate does not prevent skiing all winter, and sometimes during spring, as well as long days of activities or relaxation, all these are possible throughout the year.
