WELCOME TO THE "GÎTE DES SILVES"!
The "Gîte des Silves" is a large, charming stone house located on the edge of a small hamlet at an altitude of 1,400 m, on the GR 6 hiking trail crossing the Alpes de Haute Provence. It's 10 minutes from the ski slopes (two nearby resorts: Montclar les Deux Vallées and Chabanon, with a total of nearly 100 km of slopes) and 15 minutes from Lake Serre-Ponçon (water sports and swimming). The house boasts panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and a large private garden with two furnished terraces.
The house can accommodate up to 12 people and includes:
- 2 bedrooms with a 160x200cm double bed;
- 2 bedrooms with two 90x200cm single beds;
- a mezzanine-bedroom with 5 single beds;
- a bathroom (bath/shower) with 2 sinks;
- a second bathroom with a large shower and two sinks;
- two separate toilets;
- a large, fully equipped kitchen with an induction cooktop, oven, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, etc.
- a dining area with a very large table for 12 guests;
- a large living room with a fireplace and television;
- a traditional veranda with a relaxation area and changing room;
- two terraces with panoramic views and a barbecue area.
- a large garden with panoramic mountain views.
The small medieval town of Seyne-les-Alpes, offering all amenities, is located 3 km away. The house is ideal for two families or a group of friends, as well as for a smaller group. The rental price varies depending on the season and the number of occupants.
Rentals are available year-round.

About the host
Hosted by Charles and Annick Speth
We have been living in Haute Provence since 2002. Over the years we have refurbished a few ancient houses which we have converted into comfortable holiday homes. You can visit all of them on our websites www.vieil-aiglun.com, www.les-silves.fr and www.maison-moustiers.fr. And of course feel free to contact us for any additional information. See you soon!

What makes this property unique
Quiet surroundings, panoramic views and an exceptionally sunny location, close to the main ski-resorts of the valley and to the lake of Serre-Ponçon.
