Difficulty level :
In the heart of the Monts du Lyonnais, an old farmhouse that puts into practice every day what it teaches. Not just a setting—a living laboratory of transition.
A place to live, not a hotel
You’ll stay in a working historic farmhouse, at the heart of a permaculture eco-community. The accommodations are well-kept, cozy, and self-contained—3 km from the village of Brullioles and 5 km from Saint-Laurent-de-Chamousset, in the Monts du Lyonnais, an hour from Lyon, Saint-Étienne, and Roanne. The setting is peaceful, nature is all around, and the welcome is personalized.
We offer
- Guest rooms
- A dormitory: A self-contained unit with a separate entrance, featuring a dormitory and a double bedroom. Ideal for groups
- A cottage: A self-contained cottage with a private terrace, ideal for a stay with family, friends, or for a seminar group seeking a private space.
- A table d’hôtes: Each dish is prepared with vegetables, herbs, and spices from the garden, and seasonal produce from local farmers.
- Seminar room: 'Oasis' features a fully equipped 120 m² seminar and meeting room that can be configured to suit your needs. It can accommodate up to 60 people for a conference or about 30 for a participatory workshop.
The Institut de l'Oasis de Chamousset is a non-profit organization established in conjunction with the eco-village to develop and promote projects in nature education, environmental awareness, pedagogy, research, and cultural promotion.
