La maison Utopie - Le Paradoxe Perdu

You, who are looking for calm, serenity, nature, come and relax at the Lost Paradox.

Our house restored in an ecological concern, mixture of stone and metal will welcome you in its simplicity.

We are located a few minutes from the natural lake of Issarlès, on the Ardèche plateau, on the edge of Haute-Loire and Lozère, halfway between Puy en Velay and Aubenas.

Land of springs and volcanoes with extinct craters where natural lakes have been created, many saps and mountains are part of the landscape. The most famous being Mont Gerbier de Jonc (1551m), where the longest river in France, the Loire, takes its source and gives us the privilege of crossing our place.

Mont Mézenc (1753m), meanwhile, offers an extraordinary panorama up to the Alps.

The symbolic line of the watershed (Atlantic / Mediterranean) crosses our mountains. Made visible in summer 2017 by several international artists honoring it with contemporary works, it will amaze art lovers.

The exceptional flora and fauna in these sparsely populated and wild landscapes will bring you true rest. Your hikes will become unforgettable. It only takes a little to see a deer at the bend of a path. Put your senses on alert to discover the magnificent medicinal plants and sublime flowers of our mountains. The mushroom picking for amateurs and fine palates will be a magnificent pretext for exploring the woods.

If you identify yourself as a traveler in search of timelessness, freeze frame, originality then do not hesitate to cross the door of our paradise.
