On the border of the Jura Department, Rennes, situated in the heart of the Franche Comté, is an ancient fortified village along the Loue , a first class river, well known by fishermen, particularly for those who practice fly-fishing.

Dating from the XVIII century, one can admire the bridges, the castle’s façades, the ancient houses, the countryside and the forest that covers half of the territory. In this small picturesque village, I welcome you in an ancient Franche Comté wild-grape vine covered farmhouse, (covered with wild-grape vines or Virginia creeper) and I wish you a very pleasant sojourn in this calm and verdant setting.

On site: swimming, fishing ( upon request you can have a guide for beginners or for the more advanced….sale of daily permits) , rambling tours ( waymarked paths and circuits….along the ”gabelous”:olden time salt tax paths ) mountain biking, canoeing, hang-gliding, para-gliding(over Mont Poupet) pottery workshops with Benoït the village potter, discovering the farm.

Let yourself be seduced by the charm of nature.

Come, amble about and discover the Franch-Comté.
