L'Abri des Rêves

Breathe differently. A cabin that feels like a hideaway in the woods, with the comfort of a real little nest.

The two cocoons

Two cabins, two moods, same horizon.

One faces the forest, the other catches the morning light. They share the same silence, simplicity, and that strange feeling that time pauses as soon as you drop your bags.

Chalet en bois chaleureux avec terrasse et lumière douce

L’Esprit du Bois – a charming cabin in Auvergne

Mornings in silence. Evenings under the stars.

A wooden cabin nestled in the forest, in the Puy-de-Dôme, right in the heart of the Auvergne Volcanoes Regional Park.

In winter: cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and alpine skiing. In summer: countless hikes along the ridges of ancient volcanoes.

A bucolic little cocoon, ideal to unplug and reconnect with yourself. Perfect for a romantic stay for two.

L’Abri des Rêves – a cosy nature cabin

A tiny cabin to press pause on the world for a while.

“L’Abri des Rêves” is a small, cosy cabin built with recyclable materials, tucked away on the edge of the woods.

It’s made for nature lovers looking to slow down, switch off, and simply watch the forest breathe.

A gentle basecamp for hikes, starry nights and mornings that start slowly.

🛏 Comfortable double bed 🔥 Pellet stove 🌲 Terrace with a nature view 💻 Wifi (only if you really want it) 🛁 Quirky little bathroom
