Vue La Montagne Lodge

Front of the hotel - you can't see it when the gate is closed.

While on an expedition near Kenscoff, I spent 2 nights at Vue La Montagne Lodge near Fermate.  The road to it is off of Rt de Turin near Thomassin 38. Turn at the sign on the stone wall.  The entrance is the first gate on the right – it is not marked!  It is a small guest lodge, with hot water and wifi, and fans in the rooms.  The room I was in was on the front side of the building, so didn’t have a view of the mountains, but a walk down the road gives you a view and birding opportunities.  It had a small place to eat in, with the menu posted on the wall.  We all ordered the legume plate for dinner each night, it was a mix of pigeon peas and green peas with carrots and other vegetables.  One night it came with fried potatoes. They have cold drinks, and complimentary breakfast with coffee.  It is a well run and simple place to stay. As of this posting date, google maps says they are permanently closed, but they are not!
Look for the black gate! Hotel is there.

Turn here and go down the road to the black gate.

The legume dish.
