Val Richard, a family story At the end of the 19th and first half of the 20th century, the village of Val Richard was a hamlet inhabited by artisans and peasants. But one after the other, the 6 fires of Val Richard had gone out for economic reasons, more work for artisans whose traditional trades were declining from year to year: miller, weaver, thatched roofer, long sawyer, linen maker... In 1960, the completely deserted and ruined hamlet had become a thick thicket of brambles, broom and gorse. Our uncle, Father Auguste Coudray, and high school students arrived in this desolate place and began to bring it back to life. They dreamed of making it "a space of welcome and freedom: a place where relationships can be renewed and a common language can be invented beyond differences". Over the years, the village has become a meeting place, a place of welcome, a center of initiation to botany, geology, beekeeping, music, a place of spiritual renewal for many, a university in the middle of the fields during the summer. The hamlet, gradually restored, has seen thousands of travelers pass through. Expected or unexpected, in winter and summer, not a single day went by without someone coming up until November 2000. In 2005, after two years of upgrading and rehabilitation, we reopened the village. Wanting to make the village accessible to as many people as possible, we have undertaken work to make one of our houses accessible to people with reduced mobility ("Tourisme & Handicap" label). We are proud to have welcomed for 19 years a variety of people who are looking for exceptional moments: travelers, lovers, creators of internships, associations, companies... In 2023, our son Julien joined the family adventure! Guest access By privatizing the Village du Val Richard (there will be no other guests), you will have access to all the houses (except the non-renovated houses). Totally cut off from the world, you can organize your stay as you wish!
