| LE REFUGE DU MOURE |
This granite mansion with its lauzes roof was most probably a farm in the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries. In 1937, curate Léon inherited of it, restored it and settled down in it. His memory still lingers on in the huge buffet of the dining room.
In 1965 he gave it as a present to the Holy Sisters of Saint-Etienne de Lugdarès in order to create a home and holidays center for disheritance children. That's how some langonais had their first holidays. In the 70s-80s, the Sisters allowed it to be squatted by some beatnik communities in their quest of a new way of life and some remnants of psychedelic art were to be seen on the walls. The building was then left uninhabited till 1992.
Two friends from a nearby county with family links in the village decided to buy it, planning to restore it and make a guest house out of it. Years went by and in spite of some works done and a manager being there during summer time, the state of the house was getting worse and worse.

With a good dose of courage and all of our savings we started the renovation works as soon as we arrived, in 1998, to make this place live again. Each passing season brings its share of pleasures and troubles, but we do hope you will find a piece of happiness in your stay at our place. |
