Cevennes Farm  

On the Vimbouches farm we practise an agriculture of Cevennes type, that means
a production very diversified on familial scale (some pigs cochons, little herd 
of milkcows, chickens, kitchengarden, fruittrees, sweet chestnut orchard)


    
Kitchen garden                                         
 
 

 
We tried to conciliate tradition
and comfort while creating our guestrooms with a reception 3 épis
(ears of corn) Gîtes de France label



    Chambres & table d'hôte
          Gites de France 
     

and a guesttable with our farmproducts and Cevennes recipes 
( based on chestnuts, mushrooms, honey…) 
to savour our specialities at the splendid terrace with extraordinary vieuw ont he Cevennes valleys or close to the open fire in the dingroom.



   
                
You might be pleased to
share our passion for horses : riding, equestrian stay or horse training sessions.
