Moulin de la Strument

At the foot of a hill is this nice hotel. It is walking distance from the Village center with all the restaurants, bars and shops. Hiking paths start opposite of the Moulin. The rooms are fine, the friendliness of the staff is great, and the quality of the breakfast ingredients is also great.

Rude beyond belief! It's no wonder that the hotel remains shut, even in mid-July, because the owner is a terrible rude and insulting man. The place is dark, dingy and feels mothballed - not somewhere you want to be unless there was no other choice. The owner is this very rigid bureaucratic type who shewed us out of his 'hotel'. Given the competition, I find it strange that this place still exists, let alone its presence in guidebooks. Very odd. If you want a surreal experience, have a look around their campsite. It's like a ghost town for trailers - quite eerie. Again, despite it being mid-July and other campsites in the area being quite full, the sites here were overgrown (but not in a nice way like a meadow). The permanent trailers appear to largely have been abandoned and look weathered and in a bad state of repair. The guidebook suggested that this is a nice site, along a river, but in reality it's a stream, and the sides of the valley have been shorn of their trees, giving it a lumber feel. If this was not enough, the entire place is situated a long way from the town itself. That might be okay if it were a nice walk along the valley, but it is basically decrepit industrial sites the entire way. Needless to say, as we were rudely shown the door, we did not stay. Unless you want to spoil your holiday, I recommend that you do not even visit this place.

Lovely place. Very peaceful.
