Place Alphonse Corre, 03250, Châtel-Montagne
Been here?
Parking behind or beyond the village church, offering a beautiful view and a clean, quiet setting. Recent reports describe a large, partly shaded grass area and flat parking, with no services. The church bells ring throughout the night, reportedly every half-hour and at 10 and 40 minutes because they are misaligned. The village has an épicerie and a communal bread depot.

Beautiful view! Quiet! Very clean. Thank you, Chatel Montagne and Vichy.
Great spot, but the church rings every half hour—and it is misregulated, so it rings at 10 and 40 throughout the night... forcing us to move a little farther away! Too bad, because between the parking area in front and the one behind, everything was there for a great stay!
Flat spot next to the church, in a parking area (the grassy area behind the church is unusable at this time of year). Very clean and tastefully renovated, with a grocery store including a community bread depot and an exhibition about the village at the town hall. The elected officials are very friendly. The only thing missing is a gray-water dump (the municipality will consider it). Well done and thank you to the municipality.
Very nice spot. Superb view. No services, but what peace and quiet. Concert in the church. Thank you to the municipality for allowing us to stay.
Go past the church, large grassy parking area. Thank you to the municipality.
Indeed, go to the second parking area after the church. Very large field, partly shaded.
The village is undergoing extensive road renovation. This parking area has been moved a little farther away, to Chemin des Robert. A large lawn behind the church, perhaps temporarily until something better is available. Coordinates N 46.115556 - E 03.682467.
There is no longer a parking area, only a few very small car spaces; the parking area has become a public square.
Very beautiful place. Large parking area behind the sumptuous church, with exceptionally clean toilets. And when night fell, a magical sound-and-light show. Thank you to the municipal team; fortunately, there are still well-intentioned people.
Sensational overnight parking on grass just behind the church. The sound-and-light show is worth seeing since you are there. Lovely little village.
