Also on the property is La Grange, a three-bedroom unit sleeping up to eight guests which was converted from the old stone barn. The whole property can comfortably accommodate up to 16 guests. Each unit can be rented separately but the property is also very suitable for a family reunion or a large group event.
Two large walnut trees offer welcome shade in the height of the summer and a harvest of walnuts in the Autumn.
The garden is a tranquil place to relax and enjoy the wildlife or to play games – there is a table tennis table and a croquet lawn, and swings and a slide for the children. Guests may also use a private tennis court in a nearby property.

The owner of Le Mournet is a qualified Yoga teacher and Ayurvedic masseuse. Private yoga sessions adapted to your needs or a relaxing massage can be arranged during your stay. The owners can also organise short breaks, retreats and activity and yoga holidays combining the practise of yoga with skiing, hiking, walking, or snow-shoeing.
The local village of Albon is perfectly traditional with a bakery, village store, and tabac and locals who take the time of day to catch up on life and local events. At an altitude of 630m, Albon is in the heart of the Ardèche region, which is rich in natural beauty with spectacular gorges, chestnut forests, rolling magestic countryside and the nearby Massif Central mountains. Volcanic activity in the distant past has left behind some extraordinary local sites such as the waterfall at Le Pic de Ray and the Issarles lake.

Have had a thoroughly enjoyable first visit to this delightful spot in France. We have discovered the delights of eating at the Auberge de Bougnard as well as exploring further afield. It is a lovely house and lying by the pool relaxing in the glorious sunshine completed a perfect week. Hope to return in the near future.

This is our first to the Ardeche. It has been an enjoyable, relaxing and memorable stay...your Gite l’Ecurie and the facilities of the pool, garden and games combined with the tranquil setting are a credit to you both.

What a lovely atmosphere for our first week in France. For years we have been aniticipating spending our 25th wedding anniversary here. We have not been disappointed. Your tasteful decor and grounds, excellent welcome pack, advice on venues and drives have been just right. This area is so quiet, friendly and relaxing with as much or as little to do as one wishes.

Your gite is in such a lovely rural location. We have enjoyed cycling through the surrounding countryside and returning for a refreshing swim. La Chataigne is very well equipped and a comfortable home away from home.
Arthur and Dawn M. - Ontario, Canada
Its been lovely to find somewhere off the beaten track yet with all the comforts of home. The river has been an endless source of amusement for the children and we’ve had great families to share it all with.
