Gîtes Insolites de Sologne

Canadian nights in Sologne: 48 hours of happiness in the forest.

Like us, can't you resist the call of the forest?
2 hours from Paris, we chose the Cabane du Cerf to host our Sologne getaway.

On their vast 60ha estate, Catherine and Vincent have created a Glamping universe composed of two canvas cabins and a perfectly unique bubble. There's no chance of being disturbed, as everyone's privacy has been carefully considered! The private paths of the estate offer a palette of enchanting colors: white birches, pink heather, green ferns and foliage, and brown trunks. You can stroll around peacefully, playing trapper, and, as an added bonus, pick beautiful blackberries along the pond shores.

Made of canvas and wood, our Cabane du Cerf has it all: two bedrooms with exquisite beds, an outdoor kitchen with a gas BBQ on the terrace, and even a bathroom with hot water right in the heart of the forest. But beware, the rule here is: eco-responsibility! So the water will be rainwater, the hot water heated by gas, and the low-voltage electricity reserved for the bare essentials: a 45l cooler, a few lights, and charging your phones.

The second canvas cabin, the Cabane du Trappeur, is designed with the same spirit and accommodates up to 5 people.
Both are perfect for a family getaway or a weekend with friends.

For a romantic tête-à-tête, one of the 3 bubbles will be your choice. The crystal bubble matches the scale of the location—with a 6-meter diameter—and is divided into two parts: the fully transparent bubble immerses us in the midst of tall pines, while the second opaque bubble becomes a cozy cocoon to preserve nighttime intimacy.

On the way to your weekend destination, we would gladly recommend a stop at the Hôtel Tatin, the birthplace of the famous tart by sisters Caroline and Stéphanie. Make sure to order it in advance to enjoy it.

..:: NEW July 2018 ::.. Perched on stilts, these three new geodesic bubbles will make our heads spin: the James Bond Suite Bubble, Glamour Bubble, and the aptly named Lake Suite Bubble are opening this summer. To heighten the magic, a wellness area with a Norwegian bath at 39° and a jacuzzi has just opened.
