Nous avons passé une soirée mémorable dans ce charmant hotel dans son jus. Sylvie et sa mère sont d'une grande gentillesse et le repas est délicieux et très copieux sans parler du petit déjeuner varié aux confitures et brioches maison. Le rapport qualité prix est imbattable! Les rencontres chaleureuses et authentiques se font au hasard des logements sur le chemin de Stevenson et nous avons passé une merveilleuse soirée de rires, d'échanges et de chaleur avec les autres randonneurs. Mention spéciale à la famille de Tour et ses "princesses" :). Sylvie et sa mère savent mettre à l'aise et sont généreuses si on est un tant soit peu réceptifs et empathiques. Vous ne trouverez ni chichi ni chambre luxueuse ici mais partage et convivialité en toute simplicité. Perso, la nîmoise que je suis a été touchée. bon courage pour la suite et qui sait peut être à bientôt. :)

very friendly host !! we came on a motorbike and walked the stevenson trail with donkeys for 8 days. during that time the owner offered (without me asking) her garage as a shelter for the motorbike - wonderful and very thoughtful of her. I really appreciated this. room was ok for one night and food excellent and a lot. I can reccomend that place.

You will stay at fancier places on the Chemin de Stevenson but you are unlikely to find a warmer welcome or heartier meal. I arrived in a rainstorm and the proprietors didn’t miss a beat, settling me in and sending me off for hot shower. Great dinner and hearty breakfast and so off for more adventures. Merci à Sylvie et l’èquipe!

Very welcoming, friendly and helpful. My reservation wasn't confirmed by the company through whom I'm travelling but the hotel owner still went out of her way to accommodate me on a Sunday when she couldn't contact them.
