We are a family of mountain farmers and we are also keen to welcome tourists who wish to live a beautiful experience in the Vosges, this magnificent French mountain. We are proud to welcome our guests and share our passion with them. We will be keen to offer you a discovery of our region, for your greatest pleasure Located in the Ballons des Vosges Regional Natural Park, at an altitude of 650 meters, the Ferme de la Bouille specializes in the breeding and selection of Vosges Mountain Cattle. From the passion of our profession as mountain farmers, to the exceptional know-how passed down by our parents, our desire is to combine the breed, the excellence of this land, and people in order to offer the best product. Our cattle are raised freely, the particularity of mountain meadows being to offer animals a naturally rich and varied diet.

The Gîte In an old typical Vosges farm, the gîte is an independent two-storey house, near our farm, converted into a group gîte. Completely renovated, very well equipped and comfortable, you can enjoy the fireplace in winter or the terrace in summer with a direct view of the Val d'Argent, its surrounding nature, its mountains and the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle! A kitchen, a washing machine and a furnished living room with a library where you will find regional and tourist books, novels and board games. The house is located in the middle of an exceptional landscape of meadows and forests shaped for centuries by Man, a stone's throw from the family farm with its hens, official egg suppliers and its vegetable garden Discover the region On foot or by bike, the farm is located in the immediate vicinity of many mountain bike and hiking trails and departures can be made from the house.
