Active relaxation
Adventure Week Dates 2026
• April 18th to 25th – especially for families with younger children
• April 25th to May 2nd – still room for 2 families
Active and relaxing adventure-filled holidays for families with children aged 7 and up. Brenazet boasts a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, nature is in full bloom, and the season is perfect for active relaxation in the outdoors.
In the first few days, we’ll learn practical nature skills: tying knots, using a compass, setting up a bivouac, and living together in and with nature. We’ll cook over an open fire and discover which plants are edible.
The children will bake their own bread rolls over the fire, while parents learn how to make wild herb soup, flower butter, and wild garlic pesto.
During a two-day nature and survival trip along the Allier River, we’ll put everything we’ve learned into practice. We’ll experience the adventure together in a playful, safe, and connecting way.
Experience nature, reconnect with yourself and each other, and enjoy precious moments as a family. Every year, we surprise you with new games and activities in nature!

What our guests say
The interior of the very spacious and well-equipped cottage, large courtyard for the children to ride their bikes (they provide a whole bunch of rolling machines of different sizes, perfect!)

» Everything was perfect ! The pizza dinner, made in their wood oven, with their ingredients is not to be missed! » Children’s paradise! Thank you to our hosts for their hospitality.
Elodie
Very nice setting in the countryside. We received a pleasant welcome from Mariken and Ron. The farm is huge and the setting is very pleasant. The children were well received: games, animals, large spaces! The « Four à Pain » gîte is well equipped. Not very suitable for young children because of the many steps and the wood stove, but very functional and original. We would have liked to be warned that it was cold (14°C in the room the 1st night…): we would have equipped ourselves accordingly. Problem quickly solved by Ron who cut us some wood and offered an extra heater. Thank you for the welcome and see you next time (with down jacket;))
