Vals-Les-Bains: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Vals-les-Bains is closely linked to its thermal history: the first modern thermal spa facility was built in 1851 on the initiative of Professor Dupasquier. Anyone wishing to rent a holiday apartment in Vals-les-Bains can include this accommodation preference in their personal travel plans.

History and Culture

In the Quartier du Château, old cobbled lanes lead through the distinguished past of Vals-les-Bains. The Maison Champanhet presents the history of the spa town and the mineral waters of Vals-les-Bains, as well as the local craftsmanship and other skills of the inhabitants of the high Cévennes of Ardèche. Individual visits there last an average of around 60 minutes.

Nature

The Source Intermittente was discovered in 1865 during work to search for new mineral water springs. In the thermal park of Vals-les-Bains, it emerges several times a day as a rare natural phenomenon. It is one of the geosites of the Parc naturel régional des Monts d’Ardèche.

The Red Wood is a 54-metre-high evergreen sequoia classified as a “remarkable tree of France”.

Wellness

The Spa Séquoia Redwood offers the “Les bassins du Séquoia” experience circuit as well as individual treatments in cabins. The services include body and facial treatments, including massages, exfoliations, body wraps and body sculpting.
