It’s up to you if you still want to bring your TV and an antenna. However, we do not guarantee the proper functioning of your installation.
None of our accommodation are equipped with air conditioning. We however do rarely receive complaints on this subject. We are located at the top of a hill exposed to the air and in a wooden area. All these parameters mean that the air and shade contribute to a largely bearable atmosphere inside our accommodation.
All our accommodation is of course equipped with heating. Additional heating can even be made available to those who are more chilly on the sometimes cool nights in April.

At La Paille Basse, we cannot claim to offer a “teens’ club”. We offer activities and games that are also intended for them. But it is true that the site mainly attracts families with young children. Teenagers, however, are not left out in the fact that they benefit from a lot of independence here thanks to the security of the place. They always have the habit of meeting and getting together every evening at the “Night Circle” at the entrance of the site. The tears during goodbyes suggest that the teenagers are having a great time at La Paille Basse.

Before considering bringing your bike to La Paille Basse, you should be aware of the fact that La Paille Basse peaks at more than 250m and that you have to climb a steep hill to get there. So it is easy to leave, but more difficult to return. However, the very lightly traveled surrounding roads are fairly safe and easy.
