Find hotels in La Motte-d'Aveillans from CA $70

The best area to stay in La Motte-D'Aveillans is in the village centre itself, or just outside it, for convenient access to local amenities and the surrounding natural beauty.

The village centre is quite compact, with the main street, Rue du 11 Novembre, offering a few local shops and the mairie (town hall). It provides a central base for exploring the region and has a traditional, rural French character. From here, you're never far from the trails leading into the mountains.

Families often find staying within or very close to the village centre ideal. It allows for easy access to the local boulangerie for fresh bread in the mornings, and the small play areas for children. The nearby Lac de Monteynard-Avignonet, accessible by a short drive, is a popular spot for outdoor activities suitable for all ages, such as swimming and boat trips.

For those prioritising outdoor activities and a bit more seclusion, staying in a gîte or holiday rental just outside the village, towards the mountains or the lake, is an excellent option. These properties often provide more space and direct access to hiking and cycling trails, ideal for active couples or groups.

The best time to go to La Motte-D'Aveillans is during the summer months, from June to September, for pleasant weather and a variety of outdoor activities.
