4* Quiet comfort at the foot of the Puy-de-Dôme World Heritage Parc Volcans Auvergne

Cottage labeled "Clévacances" 3 keys: the assurance of a high level of quality guaranteed by the Clévacances charter.
The cottage is located in the village of Solagnat at the heart of the perimeter of the "Chaine des Puys - Faille de Limagne", World Heritage of UNESCO, the Regional Park of the Volcanoes of Auvergne and the Grand Site of France "Puy-de -Dôme "Hiking trails from the gîte, Puy-de-Dôme, Grand Site de France, 5 minutes by car, 30 minutes on foot. Vulcania at 10 km.
Solagnat: the countryside 10 minutes from the city center. Very quiet village because located at the end of a dead end. Only the few neighbors pass cautiously on the lane which runs along the garden. Twice a year, a nice village festival. All the residents, of which you are temporarily a member, gather around the plot or fountains to share the bread and dishes traditionally baked in the old village oven.
To reach the Royat-Chamalières thermal station (5 minutes) or the city center of Clermont Ferrand (10 minutes by car), you will take the pretty road to the Royat valley surrounded by woods and meadows where sheep and cows graze. I personally saw a chamois jump across the Tiretaine (stream born from the many springs gushing from the volcanic fonts (with the 't') from the foot of the Puy de Dôme!
The site does not make it possible to clearly indicate it in the "tariffs", I specify that the HEATING is in SUPPLEMENT of the tariffs indicated. In addition, a DEPOSIT of € 300 must be paid at the start of the stay.

Lovely quiet spot near Puy Du Dome
We booked this property prior to Covid in 2019 and we finally managed to arrive in September 2022. We were met by the owner, who speaks no English, but we managed to get by with the tour of the property. The property is in a lovely quiet village and is well laid out, and with everything you would need for your stay. The WiFi strength was excellent. We only used the one double room and that was very comfortable. The property has another double room and a single, so plenty of space. There is one bathroom and a separate WC which may be a problem for some but was no worries for us. There is a good outside space to the front which get the afternoon sun. Only gripe on my part is description says bedding provided, however a few days before our arrival we were told via email that sheets were €10 a pair (think this meant a sheet and quilt cover ) and towels were €5 each. We were also given the opportunity to have the property cleaned at the end of our stay for a further €70, surely this could have been clearly marked in the property description. I must admit we opted to pay €70 but the property was so easy to keep clean, and only took us minutes, that we wasted that money. Overall though, a great break, and we found out we were the 1st Brits to use the property.

Excellent séjour en Auvergne
Maison conforme à la description, électroménager neuf, très fonctionnel. Idéal vacances familiales. C'est un gîte labellisé, pensé correctement et ça fait une grande différence. Très grande propreté à l'arrivée, on aurait pu manger par terre. chambres spacieuses et agréables Propriété au bout d'une impasse en pleine campagne, au pied du Puy de Dôme. Hyper silencieux, on n'entend que les oiseaux. C'était ce que nous recherchions. Tout est à 10 à 30 minutes max pour visites et randonnées sur les Puys. Merci à Jean-Yves pour son accueil et sa disponibilité
