"Des petite cabane dans un village au salle, avec vue sur les montagnes. L’endroit n’est pas encore complément opérationnel (pas de cuisine mais bbq à disposition). Il faut prévoir un repas avant d’y arriver (le village le plus proche est à 20min de voiture sur une route pas forcément facile). L’accueil est agréable. Le sentiment d’être coupé du monde aussi. Le confort reste sommaire (moustiquaire trop petite par rapport au lit, peu de débit dans la douche)."
