Company info

The hosts are a Danish/Dutch couple Peter and Edith. Originally, they decided to move from the Netherlands in 2019 to France leaving behind corporate and modern life stress to share their passion for people and cycling with others by creating a healthy oasis with ZONE BLEUE as the basis for road cycling trips in the area. Getting to know the area better the idea quickly grew to include mountain biking and hiking in the beautiful nature in Auvergne that facilitate almost all kind of cycling and hiking activities. Peter and Edith are both fueled by meeting and interacting with other people sharing stories and experience in the family atmosphere around ZONE BLEUE connecting hosts and guests and in between guests of all kinds. After moving to France, they decided to expand the crew with a Jack Russel terrier named Saartje. Saartje is spreading her positive energy with all guests charming and playing with guests of all ages - but specially kids. ZONE BLEUE welcomes kids and the garden surrounding the house is a great playground to explore.

Property info

ZONE BLEUE is a remarkable Maison de Maître from the 17th hundred. Originally build with high quality materials and renovated by the hosts since they moved here in 2019 with respect for and in harmony with the original features of the building. The blend of fascinating old architecture and new modern amenities complements each other. In such a place there is always a new renovation project - focus has now moved to the barns and the cave The house has been decorated in classical Farrow & Ball colors using Hauge Blue, Treron and Lime White as the base. The guest rooms in the main building has been named after these colors. The main building host two spacious Double rooms and two equally spacious Suites for more comfort and flexibility if guests needs to work while visiting. All rooms have open fireplaces. In connection with the main building the former kitchen of the house has been converted to a separate Guest house with a spacious bathroom and kitchen following the design line from the main building. The name ZONE BLEUE is inspired by the ideas and philosophy of Blue Zones where people documented lives longer due to healthy eating, natural exercise, family focus and no stress.
