In the village of Alleyrac, with its 120 inhabitants, this 2-star municipal gîte (holiday cottage) is an ideal starting point for short hikes accessible to all. Whether on foot, by bike, or with a donkey (Rando-âne, 50 meters from the gîte, offers donkey rentals by the hour, day, or longer), the village boasts a network of marked hiking trails on the Mézenc plateau, bordering the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Natural Park. In the Sucs de Breysse, a remarkable biological site renowned for its flora and fauna, the landscape has been shaped by ancient volcanic activity. A circuit starting from Alleyrac offers the opportunity to explore them. For winter sports enthusiasts, the Estables resort, 10 km away, offers downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, snowkiting, a toboggan run, and more.
In the hamlet of Malhac, the Béate Museum is open to visitors. Ten kilometers away, Le Monastier-sur-Gazeille offers a rich cultural scene: visits to the Abbey Church and museums (Museum of Popular Beliefs, Museum of the Old School, European Cultural Center), the Brass Music Festival, and more. Twenty-five kilometers away, Le Puy-en-Velay completes the range of recreational, sporting, and cultural activities: the Crozatier Museum, a water park, a cinema, and more.
In the village square, the school offers all the services of a café-restaurant: food, bread, and a small grocery store. Le Monastier-sur-Gazeille has all the necessary shops and a weekly market on Tuesday mornings, as well as a farmers' market every Thursday evening in July and August. On Saturday mornings, the market in Le Puy-en-Velay surprises all visitors with the diversity of farm and artisanal products on offer: cured meats and other meats, cheeses, fruits and vegetables, and, of course, green lentils from Le Puy. In the heart of the village, the cottage features a large living area with an open-plan kitchen (refrigerator, washing machine, dishwasher, ceramic hob, and flat-screen TV).
