Company information

Le Cantou has been part of the local community for a long time. In the past it has been an auberge, a restaurant and a B&B. We love living in France and enjoy our lives in the tranquility of the French countryside. We love growing our own produce and have spent a lot of time renovating our 19th century home.

Property information

*Opening May 2024* You can contact us directly for a rate with no extra fees (which will include breakfast) - search for us on your usual browser. Le Cantou is a 19th Century old Auberge named after its large stone fireplace in the charming 'village fleurie' of Affieux. We offer two double rooms with their own individual style and a landscaped garden area with magnficent views over the Monedieres. We live onsite so are able to help with local recommendations for restaurants, shopping, sightseeing, sporting activities etc. **Please note that we have a dog who can be loud when he barks (not very often!) but he doesn’t go into the b&b at all. If you like dogs please let us know as he’s very friendly and would love to meet you!**

The town is renowned for its white waters which make it a global canoe-kayak spot. There are many lakes within driving distance of the B&B and the nearest with facilities is Lac de Bariousses. which is the ideal destination for a relaxing or sporting day, with family or friends.
