le Recantou sur Saint-Germain-De-Calberte

Great experience... A clean and, above all, very welcoming guesthouse, especially if you arrive on foot. Home-style cooking, but with local ingredients, a real treat.

Excellent service, the only table open at the end of January, I recommend it!

I really liked the atmosphere of the place and the friendly welcome from the manager. I was less impressed with the room and bathroom, which were too old-fashioned for my taste. Overall, a very decent place for hikers on the GR70.

The Recantou Café Restaurant Rooms 👁️🩵 This is an advertisement for a "Luxury Karaoke" evening organized on November 29th at the Recantou, an establishment located in Saint-Germain-de-Calberte, Lozère (France). The Recantou is an inn that serves as a café, restaurant, and hiker's hostel in the heart of the Cévennes National Park. It is known for welcoming travelers on trails like the GR70 (Stevenson Trail) and offers simple accommodations as well as meals. This karaoke evening appears to be a festive local event, with a disco theme (given the mirror ball and microphone on the poster), but I haven't found any information online about this specific event – ​​it's probably a one-off event not advertised online. If it's a recent photo, the event may have taken place yesterday!

An off-the-beaten-path experience! How can I explain? It's a bit like a pirate bar where the people are incredibly friendly and hospitable (they told me to pay whatever I wanted for the room because they hadn't cleaned it, as it was off-season). So I got to sleep with a super friendly little cat. As for the food, the cook prepared a custom vegetarian dish for us. There was a really festive atmosphere! It's a welcome change from the other guesthouses we've stayed in, and it was a real treat after more than a week of hiking on the GR70! One of the only guesthouses on the GR70 open in November!

Excellent meal, home-style cooking with local produce, very friendly chef. Thank you.

Great address and very warm welcome

An ideal place for a meal break...

Lunchtime meal: excellent porcini mushroom omelet

A lovely stop on the Stevenson Trail. Benoît gave us a warm welcome and prepared an excellent dinner. The rooms were clean and functional. A very pleasant stop in the pretty village of Saint-Germain-de-Calberte!
