🐺 Vahina
Vahina is a young Siberian Husky. She lives with Philippe on the first floor, knows every trail in the canyon, and welcomes your dogs in her 6,000m² enclosed grounds. She is not an attraction — she is simply herself, and she is here.

Your Host Philiboss · Actor & drama teacher
Philiboss loves his husky Vahina so much that he created a gathering place for holidaymakers in Châteauvieux — the chambres d’hôtes of Vahina Paradis. Here, your dog is at home. And so are you. Philiboss also teaches dramatic arts online with 35 years of experience at Acteur.Studio — if you’ve always wanted to step on stage, that’s the place.
