What our guests say
Their feedback after a week of mountain biking at Domaine du Frigoulet
Quiet, relaxed and yet active.
"The hotel is located a little outside of Vagnas and is very quiet. The rooms are well-appointed and functional. The breakfast buffet is generous and has everything you need. The dinner is very good and varied. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The bike guides are very knowledgeable and competent. What makes this small hotel special is its very family-friendly atmosphere, and you get on well with the staff.
A car is recommended to get there so you can stay mobile during your stay and explore the beautiful surroundings."

The service is excellent and friendly, and the meal, a four-course menu, is delicious. We enjoyed the week, being able to go hiking and explore the beautiful surroundings.

Marco Buggle
From my point of view, the price/quality ratio is hard to beat.
“The Frigoulet is simply fantastic for sports enthusiasts and nature lovers. As a 75-year-old mountain biker, this is the 22nd time I’ve come here with my wife to what has become our second home.
Why? The property is peacefully located in the middle of stunning nature and is very well maintained. Staff and guests are on first-name terms and become friends over the course of the stay. If there is such a thing as real, lived socialism, it exists at Frigoulet.”
