Accommodation options include:
Prefaucon farm guest house where breakfast and the
evening meal are eaten round the large farmhouse dining table with
your French hosts and guests; a powerful language and cultural experience.
For you there are other (French) guests to talk to and hike with.
For your children, usually other children to play with.
A chalet on our local campsite - Camping Pré-Rolland
- our local campsite is right in town, next door to the outdoor swimming
pool and snack bar - a great place for meeting other children. And
right next to the Children’s Centre with their lively summer
programme for children and teenagers.
A chalet there gives independence, a great social life and is just
5 mins from the town's shops, 4 bistros and 7 restaurants.

Family French language courses - French lessons:
Your Children have 2 excellent options, depending
on their confidence and preferences:
Either to join in the local holiday programme at the Children's
Centre offering summer activities for local French children.
This offers structured programmes for 4-6 and 7-11 year olds. Their
staff are all qualified French "animateurs".
Each week has a different theme eg: water and swimming, circus performers,
trees & cabins, multi-sports.
Or to have their own French language teacher and
their own private programme of lessons and activities. French language
lessons in the morning can be followed by games, visits and joint
activities with local French children in the afternoons.
Activities could include visits to the local outdoor pool, horse-riding,
walks (with a donkey to carry your picnic and bags), and a visit to
the local adventure park - www.aventuretrieves.com
Parents can relax, or study French, or follow their
own program of walking, biking, horse-riding, wind-surfing, paragliding
etc. Or .... a wide variety of craft courses are available, perhaps
to complement your French lessons? Ask
us for details.
Dates: These private family French language courses
are normally available June - September. But note that the Children's
Centre programme runs approx. 5 July - 30 August.
Prices: Tell us what you are looking for, either
for you and/or for your children, and we'll quote to start our discussion
