Description
Our names are Geert-Jan (Gérard) and Nikè and we’d like to welcome you. We're originally dutch, and we live in this beautiful part of France since 5th December 2005.
Our place is a former farm and lies approximately 7 km from the village of Châtel-Montagne in the Allier, region Auvergne. The lovely city of Vichy is about 25 km away. Our domaine is located in the wooded surroundings of the Montagne Bourbonnaise on 2 hectares of grounds. In 2007 we have opened our campsite and currently there're 25 spacious sites including 8 large equipped safari tents of which 6 with private sanitary and 3 luxuriously equipped domes. Our season starts the 15st of mai till the 16th of September.
There's a swimming pool and a restaurant/bar. The restaurant/bar opens each day at 15.00 until about 22.00. During the high season we organise special evenings for our guests. Normally the number of guests who participate are about 50 persons.
We speak Dutch, French, English and German.
