Right in the heart of the Erve valley, at the foot of the canyon and the Saulges caves, you'll fall under the spell of a village listed as a "Petite cité de caractère" (small town of character), bordered by the river Erve (fishing possible from March to September for the 1st category and all year round for the 2nd), offering an undulating environment. The village is warm and welcoming, with its restored stone houses, the river, the Cèdre bakery (organic bread baked over a wood fire) and its seasonal bar. Discover the works of art scattered around the village and on the houses....
