A Working Farm

The cottage and caravan are on our dairy farm. No organised activities: just farm life as it is, every day.

A Living Environment

We raise about fifty dairy cows and produce our own farm cheeses (Munster and Tome). Three ponies, pigs and hens complete our small troop.

During your stay, you live at the pace of the farm. Nothing staged, nothing arranged for tourists. Just life as it is: the sounds of early morning, animals to watch, and a quiet you stopped expecting.

Meadows and forests of the Pays Welche, around Orbey in the Alsatian Vosges

The Pays Welche

The Pays Welche sits in the Vosges valleys around Orbey. Most people haven't heard of it, and that's kind of the point.

The Pays Welche is the Alsace you won't find in the guidebooks. Rural, low-key, with its own distinct history. High meadows, dense forests, scattered farms. A place where traditions are still part of everyday life.

Mountains & Forests
Preserved landscapes between ridges, lakes and forests, ideal for hiking.
Land of History
A territory marked by history (Le Linge, Tête des Faux) to discover.
Welche Traditions
A unique cultural heritage, language and agricultural know-how.
