CASTOR cabin

The Lovers' Lookout is crafted for couples who want a secluded, romantic night immersed in nature. Elevated among chestnut branches and Douglas firs, this cabin offers a private vantage point over the valley and a peaceful atmosphere ideal for conversation, stargazing and reconnecting. Designed with sustainability in mind, the cabin is built without damaging the trees and contains no electricity or heating. This deliberate simplicity encourages guests to slow down and enjoy the natural environment. Linen and sleeping bag rentals are available on site. Each morning a breakfast basket is delivered to the foot of the tree so you can wake gently with the sounds of the forest. Enhance your evening with a Panier du Cabaneur: artisan charcuterie, creamy ravioles and a chestnut-infused dessert. For romantic touches, order a curated apéro basket with local wine from Ardèche and artisan biscuits. Activities around the Lovers' Lookout suit couples who like gentle exploration: forest walks, scenic vantage points, and visits to nearby lakes and cascades. The 12 km off-road electric scooter circuit provides a fun daytime outing. Nearby cultural sites such as Mont Mezenc and the village of Chalencon offer delightful day trips. Hosts Cécile and Steph are attentive and discreet, offering personalized suggestions for romantic extras and helping with practical arrangements. Note arrival and departure times: check-in 16:00–18:00, check-out by 11:00. Same-day reservations close at midnight. Pets are not permitted. The Lovers' Lookout is an intimate retreat for couples seeking an authentic, eco-friendly pause in the Ardèche landscape.
