Dauphiné ~ 11 - 13 place "Gîte Rural"

The larger of our two Gîtes ruraux (102 m²) is named after the region in which the Ecrins National Park is situated. We hope whilst you stay here that you share our feeling of continuity with the pioneer climbers from years gone by and with the alpine communities who scratched a living in these parts.

Other rooms at Gite Le Lauvitel
“Khumbu” 14 beds
“Snowdonia" 6 - 10 beds

Dauphiné

On the ground floor there is a spacious kitchen/dining room with a vaulted ceiling, from which a staircase leads to a small sittingroom upstairs with a sofa-bed. There are five bedrooms (one 3 beds and four 2 beds) overlooking the garden, two of which open onto a balcony.

The Dauphiné can be let separately as an independent self catering Gîte. However it also connects through to the principal Gîte (Khumbu) and to the other Gîte rural (Snowdonia). So depending on reservations and the size of groups we can let out Dauphiné and Snowdonia separately or together as independent self-catering Gîtes ruraux. Alternatively we can let individual rooms on a half board basis, opening up the connection to the main Gîte.

Future plans

Between Khumbu and Dauphiné there is an old “cold room” with a vaulted ceiling. We hope to refurbish this room to create an additional space that can be used by either of the two larger Gîtes as an extra sitting/dining room or games room.
