Maison Joy: Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Perched on the banks of the Baume River with idyllic views across the blossoming countryside, this traditional home opens its doors to an unforgettable stay in the Ardéche. And with the hilltop village of Joyeuse just a short drive away, you’ll be in the perfect setting to experience quintessential French charm at its finest.

From the rustic stone and wooden features to the art and furnishings, every detail enriches the space with a wonderful sense of character. So whether you’re here for an intimate celebration or a quiet retreat, you’ll find yourself serenaded by the simple and small details of this home.

Wake up to idyllic views across the river, take a refreshing stroll through the garden, enjoy a quiet morning coffee on the terrace and share beautiful meals around the table. However you spend your time here, this is the kind of home that brings comfort and ease to daily living.

Days can be spent hiking, cycling, sightseeing and embracing the adventurous spirit of the region. You’ll find the Gorges de l'Ardèche just over an hour away by car, while the hanging gardens of Labeaume are a twenty-minute drive away.

Wherever the day takes you, this home makes the perfect setting for candlelit dinners and cosy evenings by the fire.
