In short
Description
Beautiful bedroom with adjoining private kitchen-living room: lots of windows to enjoy the surrounding greenery!
Charmingly simple, it features a double bed and two single bunk beds. Two additional children can sleep on the mezzanine.
Mosquito net available.
Adjoining is a vast kitchen-living room, the threshing floor of the ancestral farmhouse (hence the name "la moisson"): the floor is still made of large schist slabs, what a cachet! The room is glazed on three sides, giving privileged visual access to the surrounding vegetation (shrubs, wisteria, yuccas, wild grasses...), yet is barely visible from the outside.
The creative bathroom is reminiscent of Gaudi (mosaics, snaking pipes...).
It's a few dozen meters' walk from the parking lot to bring your belongings, but there's a wheelbarrow available, and once you're settled in, what a pleasure it is to be away from any vehicles! Arrival times: 5pm to 6:30pm. Exceptions possible in case of problems, of course!
2 evenings a week, from July 20 to around August 20 (to be confirmed), you'll be served organic-vegetable food by Chez Jeannette.

About us
Our eco-responsible and farming commitments
For over 50 years, the La Baraque farm has been committed to an ecological approach (and has been a member of the Nature & Progrès network from the outset), rebuilding and rehabilitating its land to promote biodiversity. This includes first and foremost the soils, which were in a sorry state (virtually uncultivated) when the estate was taken over by pine trees. We had to bring back deciduous trees and recreate humus. This has now been achieved, and the high level of organic matter in our agricultural soils enables us to produce a large number of good vegetables, while we naturally continue to cultivate our land in a way that is as respectful of living organisms as possible.

How to get here?
Warning: there are two "chemin de la baraque". The one not to be taken (not passable all the way) starts in a neighboring commune and is a dirt track. The GPS sometimes sends you on it, so don't listen to them.
The "chemin de la baraque", which is the right one, starts from the D51 between Aujac and Bedousses bas. It's a single-lane tarmac road that's 3km long, but seems to be twice as long when you're not used to it ;-) The tarmac becomes dirt for the last 50-100m only.
The nearest train station is Génolhac, half an hour away. If you don't have your own means of transport, I can pick you up by car for a fee.
