INSTINCT NOMADE is miles away from any stress of everyday life. Sainte Eulalie village is situated at 1300m altitude in the Ardèche highlands, the heart of the Monts d'Ardèche regional natural park, very close to the actual source of the famous Loire River and the Auvergne’s volcanoes.

"A big thank you for the welcome, a real pleasure to stop in your little corner which is extremely comfortable. Everything is there, all that remains is to enjoy a little moment of sweetness. Don't hesitate to do the detour, an address not to be missed!!!

"Superb place, very welcoming and kind hosts. It was just perfect, quiet night under the trees. Inn and food truck 10 minutes away for eating. Very good starting point for visiting Sainte Eulalie, source of the Loire and Mont Gerbier rush. Spot highly recommended" *
