Cabanes du bois Basalte

Chez
Julien Peltier, Lise Valet, Mathilde Richard & Sébastien Gardarin

Facing the Chaîne des Puys mountain range, Les Cabanes Bois Basalte are reinventing the concept of living in the heart of nature. Designed by committed architects, these eco-friendly cabins combine design and sustainability. Here, everything is organic, local, and self-sufficient, allowing guests to immerse themselves completely in an unspoiled landscape.

When a landscape meets pragmatic dreamers, architects no less, and vice versa, what do you get? Lots of good things, including Les Cabanes Bois Basalte, perfectly sustainable buildings with views of the Chaîne-des-Puys. These are the works of idealists eager to put their convictions into practice, to share a setting, to imagine another way of inhabiting the landscape, to prove that contemporary buildings and the land can still be at one. Accommodation designed as a manifesto, then, but not only that. And that's where it gets really interesting and successful. Add to that the fact that, unsurprisingly, Le Bois Basalte is a counter for the Doume, the local currency of Puy-de-Dôme, that electricity and hot water production are 100% sustainable, that drinking water comes from a spring, that breakfast and picnic baskets are completely organic, that there is a vegetable garden

3 good reasons to go

  1. because it's a deeply committed and serious project
  2. because the view of the Chaîne des Puys is sublime
  3. because it's a little bit rustic and, ultimately, relaxing
