L’Escale en Ubaye is a farmhouse that dates back to ±1780 which has been completely renovated as a guesthouse. The guesthouse is situated in St. Pons - one of the oldest villages in the Ubaye valley in the departement Alpes de Haute Provence. The farmhouse is full of authentic charm. The sunny garden offers a fabulous view of the winter sports resorts Pra Loup and Le Sauze. You can spend the whole day discovering the area and enjoying the beauty of the abundant nature here.

After a day out in nature you can relax in one of our cosy rooms before pulling up a seat at our table. Together with your fellow guests you can savour a three-course menu, which always includes some traditional dishes.

For children there is a riding school, a playground and an adventure park all within walking distance. In short, our guesthouse has all of the ingredients for a great holiday for people of all ages.

The history of Barcelonnette
In the 19e century three brothers set out to seek their fortune in the textile industry in Mexico.
Their enterprise proved a success and they were rapidly followed by other people from Barcelonnette. When these people returned to Barcelonnette they wanted to show how rich they had become. So they built beautiful Mexican villas. Unfortunately some of the families then went back to Mexico, which meant that some of the villas were left vacant for so long that the townspeople forgot who the owners were or where they were in Mexico.
