Very simple, but charming. When I arrived there, I immediately liked the simple and harmonious architecture with the forest.

The place is large and cosy. I pass often there and most of the time there's nobody so you can give it a try if you want to use the tables or cover.

Nice little refuge with table and place for the fire. It seems that it belongs to the commune of Grancy.
