300 years of agricultural history have given all the charm to this old peasant farm in the heart of Auvergne. After being abandoned for several decades, my wife and I decided to renovate my grandfather's birthplace with my wife.
This is how La Bâtisse de Lucien was born, a 5-star cottage that has kept the traces of the past that make it charming and authentic. Combining high-end services our cottage is a place of well-being that combines conviviality and relaxation. Moments to share with family, friends, for a weekend or during your holidays in the heart of the volcanic Velay nature, 10 minutes from the city of Ponote.
