Domaine Les Macans 4-star gîte in the heart of Livradois forez
Just 1 hour 15 minutes from Clermont-Ferrand, 2 hours 30 minutes from Lyon, and 3 hours 30 minutes from Montpellier, 3 km from Lake Champagnac in the heart of the Livradois Forez forest, in a peaceful setting, lies the hamlet of Les Macans, where Floriane welcomes you to her magnificent characterful stone house, which she has just completely renovated into a charming, welcoming, and comfortable gîte. Large windows offer breathtaking views of the surrounding forest and, in particular, the park where the owner's horses roam. The interior décor is remarkable: a floating stove stands in the centre of the room, a custom-made oak dining table seats up to 10, there's a pool table, and natural colours highlight the wood and stone. The layout is very well thought out: four bedrooms are at your disposal, including one on an open mezzanine. Two bedrooms are located on the ground floor, one with a very large walk-in shower, the other with a private bathroom. Let yourself be charmed; this gîte is the ideal place for a stay with friends or family, combining conviviality, comfort, and privacy! On-site activities include relaxation, nature observation, hiking or cycling, and even a treetop adventure park.

The beach has been awarded the Blue Flag label, offering various activities and services for families and friends. Swimming, a children's playground, a picnic area, and a fishing area are all available. - A full-scale treetop adventure park with two giant zip lines over the lake, including the longest in the Haute-Loire region. Treetop adventure courses, from 1m to 12m high, for the whole family. A treehouse area with nets and slides, accessible without a harness. - The remarkable La Chaise-Dieu Abbey, an exceptional heritage site. 1000 years of history and architecture to discover through an immersive tour.
