- SWEET BABYGoing on holiday with one or more children is not always easy. That's why we have created the 'loving baby' stay. No need to bring all baby's things and overload your car, your hosts will provide the necessary equipment: cot, high chair, changing mat, etc. The owners will advise you on family activities and outings accessible with a push chair. In some cases they can even arrange babysitters so that you can spend an evening alone together.
- THE HAUTES-ALPES BY BIKESome of the most famous sporting events have taken place on the Southern Alps roads and tracks (Tour de France, Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré, French mountain bike championships, Worldcup, etc.) and the region is nowadays known as a bicycle paradise. The marked itineraries for both mountain bikers and touring cyclists make it a pleasure accessible to everyone. Your hosts make your stay even easier by providing a storage room for your equipment, a repair kit and information.
