A picturesque village in Haute-Loire that seems to have come straight out of a fairy tale, Moudeyres particularly appeals to lovers of authentic buildings due to its houses with flagstone roofs and its beautiful, traditional thatched cottages made of volcanic stone. Particularly well-suited to rural life in the mid-mountain region, this type of construction is typical of the Mézenc plateau and gives Moudeyres a beautiful sense of architectural harmony.

The rural heritage of this charming village in the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Nature Park and its surroundings is on display at the Perrel brothers' farm, a listed historic monument located on the edge of the village. Set in old buildings with thatched roofs, the oldest of which dates back to the 16th century, this eco-museum dedicated to folk arts and traditions charts two centuries of peasant history, experienced by ten generations of the same family who have lived there over the years.

The presentation of the life of "peasants from above" is through guided tours that allow to find the austere conditions of long winters in the snow. But the imagination and ingenuity of the peasant to make tools suitable to their needs or to improve their comfort is also highlighted. And a beautiful collection of tools clog, stones venom or mole traps "patented Perrel" is highlighted by the authentic.
