The genesis of the R112-North lodge

Marie-Eve and Stéphane have been the instigators of many projects for over a decade. She is a former owner and founder of Savonnerie des Diligences, and he is a woodworking artisan. Together, they form a blended family and have collaborated on numerous projects that have revolved around Savonnerie des Diligences, which Marie-Eve founded in 2005 and sold in 2024.

In the fall of 2024, they will create La Fabrique together in the old soap factory and they fall “in love” with tourist accommodation. They have therefore decided to welcome you into their home.

Stays that leave a mark

I am so sad that I didn't take any photos to share, but I definitely plan to go back soon! The cottage is beautiful, the bathroom is spotless, a real little love nest. Breakfast in our fridge for the next day was so appreciated with little orange/grapefruit juices. Easy access for arrival and for check-out. Thank you very much for all the little touches left in the room for us.

Gina Trepanier

I loved my experience at this inn! The room is beautiful, comfortable, the breakfast is just perfect and different every day. The place is ideal for walking around the region. Then Marie-Ève and her partner were very kind, it was a truly beautiful experience on a human level. I would definitely do it again!

5 comfortable nights in a quiet place. I loved the cold oatmeal and granola. The extra touch is that this accommodation allows you to write a letter to yourself and receive it at home one year later. I highly recommend it!

Julie Collin

We simply LOVED our stay in this peace haven. The large blooming garden, the tranquility, and the proximity to various activities make it an ideal place to relax or tour local small producers. Additionally, the house provides direct access to hiking trails or for a bike ride. Our hosts were charming and eager to offer us their best recommendations. In short, we will keep a wonderful memory of our vacation in this beautiful, warm, and peaceful house.
