Find Your Perfect Holiday Rental for the Ascension Long Weekend
If you’re seeking a nature escape for the Ascension weekend, check out Le Village des Oiseaux in Motz, Savoie. Stay in wooden cabins set in the heart of a Natura 2000 protected area. You can choose between belvederes or observatory-style lodges accommodating 2 to 8 people. The apartments are modern and fully equipped. Don’t forget to bring your camera for a stroll along the ornithological trail near the residence—you might spot some migratory birds!
