Accommodation
There is a full range of accommodation in the valley, from self catering apartments and chalets through to rooms in ancient french chateaux.We know it's important that your stay is as comfortable as it can be so we only choose accommodation that is of a good standard and where we know the hosts will look after you.
When you make your booking you can choose which accommodation you would prefer and we'll check it's availability for you. If you are coming to the region and doing your own thing but need somewhere good to stay, we do take accommodation only bookings as well.

Bed and Breakfasts
If you like meeting local people and want a more personable experience, then the small friendly bed and breakfasts in the valley are really good value for money.Unlike British B&Bs, the French 'chambre d'hotes' generally have a comfortable lounge (often with a log fire or wood burner) and dining area for you to relax in with your friends so you're not confined to your room.
And most of them offer an evening meal as well. These are often a set menu of four courses with wine.
There are many more to choose from in the valleys but these are our favourites.
Hotels
The great thing about Champsaur and Valgaudemar is that there aren't loads of big commercial hotels obscuring the landscape. Virtually all the hotels in the valleys are small, friendly and family run.The quality of the decor and standard of the services varies quite a lot, so we've chosen a selection that we know won't disappoint.
Self-Catering
There are numerous options for self catering in the valley. We have chosen our favourites to show you, but if none of these take your fancy or they are full, we can easily find an alternative.And, to avoid the nightmare of there being nothing to eat in your fridge with all the shops closed when you arrive, we can get your first shop in for you. Just tell us what you want and we'll make sure it's waiting for you when you arrive. It'll cost you just £15 or €20 plus the cost of the shopping.
Gites
For good quality low budget accommodation Gites are perfect. If you like youth hostelling in the UK, you will love staying in Gites in France.They are a bit like youth hostels in that you stay in dormitory style accommodation and can be either self catering or catered for. Some of the gites have double and family rooms as well as larger dormitories and it is possible to book them for yourselves.
They all have communal rooms for meetings, socialising and eating so are great places to meet people.
The standards vary quite considerably so we have only chosen the ones we would like to stay in to put on our site.
