About this property
Charming old stone cottage in the heart of the mountains in the Ecrins
"Chez Louisette", an authentic mountain cottage, in a little corner of paradise!
Located at 1400m above sea level, ideal for lovers of peace and nature, the gîte is located in the heart of the hamlet of Fermonds, in the Champoléon valley, at the entrance to the Ecrins National Park. From the house, ten minutes of walking will be enough to enter the heart of the Park…
This authentic old stone house, with a surface of 110m², can ideally accommodate 6 people. The ground floor consists of an entrance (serving WC and shower room), a kitchen - dining room (good level of equipment but no dishwasher) and a living room with stove wood (TV, DVD player, books, board games…). Upstairs, three bedrooms: a large bedroom with double bed, communicating with a bedroom with two single beds (ideal for 2 children) and another large room with double bed and reading corner. Outside, private garden with garden furniture. Easy access by car, parking 30 meters from the house. Possibility to use the owners washing machine (50m). Inns in the valley and shops at 8km. Electric bike rental on site.
The spirit of the place: Hélène and Stéphane will be happy to make you discover this little corner of paradise! They will be able to share with you their daily life and their passion for the mountains, in all seasons. Summer: organic gardening and permaculture, fruit and vegetable processing, bread making in an old banal oven and visit to the family chicken coop! Winter: snowshoeing and cross-country skiing from the house, and especially cross-country skiing (possibility of lessons for all levels with Stéphane, former member of the French Nordic ski team)… And all year round, many activities are available nearby: hikes (starting from trails from the hamlet), mountain biking, lake and leisure center, downhill skiing (5 stations nearby), sled dogs, ice climbing… So dare to disconnect and going green! Unplug your laptops and enjoy ...
