Our self catering holiday resort at Murol is the ideal place to get away from it all and rediscover the pleasures of life in the great outdoors. Allow yourself to be tempted by excursions organised by our activity leaders: an introduction to the fauna and flora of the volcanoes, visits to local farms, discovering local crafts, not to mention tasting the specialities of the Auvergne, not to be missed!
For a refreshing swim, head to the Chambon lake, which is some 800 metres from our summer self catering resort in the Massif Central. At the lovely sandy beach with facilities on-site, you can enjoy not only sunbathing but also watersports, and fishing that you’ll never forget!
