La Passagère is a B&B, just 3 km from Vichy. Formerly a bottling plant, the house and its 5 bedrooms has retained a 20’s style and feel. The owners, vintage car enthusiasts, also hire out their collection of 10 cars from the 1950s to the 1970s: 1957 Ford Thunderbird, 1971 Corvette Stingray, 1966 Triumph, Morgan 4/4 and a few more!

Where to eat
Hôtel St Roch
A fine food restaurant opens in the Hôtel St Roch (awarded 3 stars by Relais du Silence) in Salzuit, Haute-Loire. The restaurant focuses on local produce and is the perfect addition to the old stately home which has lovingly been converted to a 21 room hotel. Set in 14 hectares of tree-filled grounds, the hotel also has a spa, highly-regarded for its treatments using Argile des Volcans, a type of clay produced by the hotel itself.
