    Unique experience, sleeping in an inflatable bubble with a clear view of the night sky. Food hamper was excellent. Surroundings are excellent.

    So different! Everyone should have a night sleeping in a bubble! We weren’t blessed with a starry night, but still enjoyed birds, insects and the wind in the trees - plus two hot air balloons flying over our heads as we woke up!

    This was an unforgettable experience, the first time we have slept in a bubble. It was wonderful to sleep with a view of the stars and the trees around - and to be surrounded by a wood with birdsong and no car noise. Henri was most welcoming and...

Experience nature up close at Somn'en Bulle, from the cosy comfort of a bubble privately secluded in the heart of the southern French forest. Perfect for those who love getting up close and personal with nature, but who don't fancy bedding down under boring canvas, Somn'en Bulle comprises four private, perfectly formed eco-bubbles in the south of France. Nestled amongst lush greenery in rural Mergieux, close to the medieval village of Najac, the bubbles' location is naturally magical. If you're looking for the ideal place to relax and unwind, far away from all the stress and pollution of city life, then you need look no further. Lightweight and lovely, your transparent bubble is almost invisible in the surrounding landscape, meaning you'll feel completely undisturbed as you luxuriate in the delights of the natural world. Exceptional care is taken to preserve the beauty of these blissful surroundings, so you'll find organic toiletries, dry toilets and biodegradable materials used wherever possible on site. All that's left to do is for you to relax, as you listen to joyous birdsong and immerse yourselves in the ever-changing sky overhead.

All that's left to do is for you to relax, as you listen to joyous birdsong and immerse yourselves in the ever-changing sky overhead. And if you thought sleeping in Le Grande Outdoors meant you'd have to rough it, think again. You'll find a double bed inside your heated bubble, complete with two soft quilts, plus a changing area, electricity and your own private bathroom. General facilities here include a private garden and a tasty breakfast served each morning - the ideal start to an energetic day of local exploration! Pets are not permitted. Check in is between 5-7pm, check out is 11am. Breakfast is served between 8-10am. Picnics and outdoor dining are not permitted. No smoking or alcohol permitted inside the bubbles. The bubbles are not recommended for young children.
With such a fresh and invigorating setting that combines sparkling rivers, whispering trees and rugged hills, hiking in the Aveyron Valley is a must, particularly when you can access the most popular routes within 10 minutes of your bubble. There's a wealth of activity to be enjoyed there too, from swimming and canoeing, to climbing, mountain biking and ziplining! The fascinating green village of Najac, complete with its 14th century fountain, imposing castle and view-filled dungeon, is a must-visit...and why not brush up on that rusty conversational French while you're there? You'll have plenty of opportunities to get chatting with the friendly locals, as you browse the many independent shops and restaurants. Slightly further afield, a 30 minute drive will take you to Cordes-sur-ciel, a 13th century city with some of the most remarkable medieval architecture to be found anywhere in France. After such a packed day, why not return to your bubble to be greeted with an on-site massage? You deserve to relax after all, and once you've enjoyed a glass of wine out in the fresh evening air, marvelling at the beauty of the golden sun as it sets over the hills, you can finally brea
