Dog-friendly holiday

Safe Freedom:

Both gîtes feature a fully enclosed private garden, so your dog can run around freely while you enjoy peace of mind.

Straight into nature:

Walking routes start directly from the front door. No car needed for the morning round.

Cool Climate:

Thanks to the altitude (850m), dogs here do not overheat quickly in the summer.

Paws on the ground: our house rules

To keep it pleasant for everyone (human and animal), we ask you to take the following points into account:

  • Four paws on the ground: Furniture is for humans. Dogs are not allowed on sofas, chairs, or beds. Feel free to bring your own basket or blanket so your dog has their own familiar spot.
  • The ‘Outdoor Wellness’: Our bathrooms are exclusively for humans. Does your dog need a freshen-up after a muddy walk? Use the washbasin available from us.
  • No surprises in the grass: A “message” in the garden can happen, but we ask you to clean up these ‘gifts’ immediately and throw them in the designated bin. This keeps the garden fresh for everyone.
  • A good neighbor: Please be mindful of the immediate surroundings. When passing other animals such as wildlife, livestock, or another dog from the neighborhood, it can be helpful to leash your dog as a precaution.

“Large, well-fenced garden where our two shepherds enjoyed staying, and brilliant nature in the immediate vicinity.”

Did you know…?

The Auvergne is one of the few places in Europe where you can take your dog onto a dormant volcano peak? In the little train to the top of the Puy de Dôme, four-legged friends even get their own ticket!
