Le Mars

In the heart of the Parc Naturel Régional des Volcans d'Auvergne, between Mauriac and Riom-es-Montagnes, this single-storey gîte with its own entrance is housed in a renovated 1890 barn that includes another gîte. Spacious and comfortable, it offers a large living area, ideal for family stays.

Nestled in a small mid-mountain village, you can enjoy hiking (Col d'Aulac, Mars valley, Puy Mary, etc.), fishing (Trout Area at Roussillou with Guillaume, Trizac and Menet lakes, Sumène and Mars rivers), cross-country skiing and snowshoeing (cross-country ski center at Le Falgoux) and swimming (Trizac and Bort-les-Orgues lakes). You can also discover the region's rich architectural heritage: Romanesque church circuit, buron visits, Auzers and Trémolière castles.
