Chambre d'hôtes

La Providence reveals its discreet charm as soon as you step through its gates. This ancient residence, steeped in history, offers an enchanted interlude where time seems suspended. The buildings, dating from the late 17ᵉ century, have been carefully preserved. Guests are invited to stay in a warm room, simple yet full of character, where every detail has been thought of to offer an authentic and soothing experience.In the evening, the courtyard enclosed by buildings, becomes the theater of an enchanted courtyard, a rare and soothing natural spectacle, as evening falls, sparrows take refuge in the Virginia creeper and swallows return to the nest, while bats take over as night falls completing this lively and serene tableau. A lively, enchanting scene, renewed every day at dusk, then, as night falls, the discreet bats that inhabit the area take over, these nocturnal animals silently continuing their life cycle. The meadow is home to a horse, while the free-roaming animals, rooster, hens, dogs Pia and Salha, and Lulu the cat add to the bucolic atmosphere of the place. The bakery, a former village bakery dating back over sixty years, with its imposing firebrick wood-fired oven, also bears witness to a rich and lively past. La Providence is much more than just a Bed and breakfast: it's a place to recharge your batteries, a haven of peace where nature, history and simplicity come together to offer each visitor an unforgettable experience. Horse riders are also welcome. A grassy meadow and a stable are available to welcome their mounts, while respecting the calm and rhythm of the place.
