This unguarded refuge suggests a nice break. And the water fountain there allows you to refuel.

The "ferme des cevennes" is difficult to describe given the many impressions... Parts of the house are up to 400 years old, an organic farm that tries to do traditional business. There is a farm shop with many homemade delicacies. Beautiful terrace with bar. Not to forget the possibility to stay overnight in individual and spacious rooms. Very rustic dinner and breakfast is offered. You can also visit the farm on your own. A small downside, at least for cyclists, is that this property is on the mountain, but that's what makes it unique.
