Old stones, kept in the family.

First and foremost, we are a mountain family. For generations, ours have lived in the Champagny-le-Haut valley, tending flocks — a way of life immortalised by the documentary “Le Fruit commun”, filmed in the valley, some scenes of which were shot in our own home, in what is now the vaulted living room of Le Gaulois.

The chalets we open to you are not new builds: they are former barns, stables and family houses — including our grandfather's house, now La Datcha. Renovating them was a way to keep the hamlet of La Chiserette alive, and to keep these old stones in the family.

Today, Danielle and Wilfried Benoit welcome you here. You are not simply renting a large chalet: for the length of a stay, you step into a piece of our story.
