The village of Simeyrols (pronounced Simei-irols) derives its name from the summits that compose it. Also all its roads lead to highlights offering beautiful views of the foothills of the Massif Central.

This small village of about 270 souls is divided into hamlets independent of each other. The old mines, abandoned for half a century, make the northern part of the village inconstructible, making it possible to preserve its fauna, its wild and wooded character.

This green setting, in its privileged environment in nature, is ideal for those who wish to unwind.
