Le Buron de Champanouse (sleeps 4–6)

In the heart of the Margeride region, a fully restored traditional buron awaits you for an unforgettable holiday. A “buron” is a stone building found in the middle of high-altitude pastures. It was used to house cheese-making operations and to provide lodging for the buronniers. Today, the Buron de Champanouse welcomes holidaymakers who love nature and tranquility.
