Christmas in Ardèche
We haven’t told you? The best Christmas is Ardèche!
The days are getting shorter, the cold is settling gently in the Monts d’Ardèche, and the chimneys are starting to crackle to keep us nice and warm… there’s no doubt, winter is taking over in Sources & Volcans! To help you prepare for the holiday season, we offer you a selection of 100% local and Ardèche gift ideas!
For Small Budgets
The best ideas are at the market!
What better opportunity than the Christmas markets to make your decision?
We love these seasonal atmospheres with small decorated stalls, where lights and big smiles are always present! At our Christmas markets, you’ll find a thousand delights: cakes, gingerbread, Christmas baubles, garlands, ceramic decorations, handmade jewellery, plates, bowls, artisanal cutlery, and delicious chestnut creams from local producers are waiting for you!
Small budget, but big ideas!
Bike excursion
Rent a bike and explore the Ardèche of Sources & Volcans: 5% discount on all rentals starting from one day, departing from Thueyts with Ebike (from €10 for a children’s mountain bike for the day and from €35 for a half-day adult electric mountain bike).
Détendez-vous, vous le méritez !
Isn’t the best gift a moment for yourself? Since there’s no harm in treating yourself, in 2024, enjoy a treatment at the Thermes de Neyrac-les-Bains to treat yourself or give it as a gift to your loved ones: treatments, scrubs, massages, gift sets…
For the creative ones
For those who believe that a gift should come from the heart and want to give handmade creations, our partner artists offer workshops for you to try your hand at various arts and showcase your artistic soul! Ceramics, watercolour, drawing, or even comic book creation – the choice is yours…
For those seeking escape
Cozy stays
Why not spend the winter chill in comfort in Ardèche with our partner stays? Take care of yourself with wellness getaways: sauna, hot tubs, jacuzzi, Nordic baths, and massages for a zen moment in Ardèche! (Of course, we highly encourage you to try these experiences all year round as well).
For the undecided
If you want something local but haven’t decided on a specific gift yet, the “Ardèche sous le Sapin” initiative is for you! It offers a wide range of gift options, including cosmetics, treats, handmade creations, and gift vouchers, with the possibility to shop online for those who like to plan ahead.
