Our Actions
🌿 Our Environmental Actions
We are making every effort to reduce our environmental impact and preserve the nature around us. Here are the initiatives already in place:
-
Composting and waste sorting for better waste management.
-
Rainwater harvesting for irrigation.
-
Passage du chauffage au fioul vers un système à granulés de bois, plus respectueux de l’environnement.
-
Installation of a log stove in the gîte's fireplace.
-
Replacement of standard light bulbs with LEDs and installation of thermostatic radiator valves on every radiator.
-
Sludge removal from the heating system to improve energy efficiency.
-
Enhanced insulation with thermal curtains and blackout blinds.
-
Adjusting water heaters to off-peak hours to limit consumption.
-
Sensibilisation à l’économie d’eau et d’énergie auprès de nos visiteurs.
🐝 Preserving nature and biodiversity
We foster a harmonious living environment for humans, animals, and vegetation:
-
Laying hens and sheep for eco-grazing.
-
Planting Virginia creeper for a green façade that naturally regulates temperature.
-
Planting fruit trees for wildlife and the enjoyment of visitors.
-
Beehives, insect hotels, and swallow nesting boxes to support local biodiversity.
-
"LPO Refuge" label awarded for bird protection.
-
Zero pesticides in the garden.
-
Free bicycle loans to reduce car travel.
-
Digital welcome booklet with tourist information to reduce paper use.
In 2025, we obtained the Clef Verte sustainable development label, internationally recognized as Green Key.
The Green Key label recognizes tourist accommodations and restaurants committed to a voluntary, high-performing, and dynamic environmental approach. The label is awarded annually by an independent jury of tourism and environmental experts and professionals, based on strict criteria and an on-site audit every three years.
Thank you for supporting our initiative during your stay!
Our Projects
Our commitment to the environment does not stop at what we have already achieved; it extends to the projects we are enthusiastically pursuing for the future.
Because every action counts, we are striving to go even further: generating our own energy via photovoltaic panels, growing our own fruit and vegetables in a kitchen garden and permaculture plot, and further enhancing the gîte’s comfort and energy efficiency with humidity-controlled ventilation systems, a thermodynamic water heater, and a complete roof renovation.
Beyond the environment, we also believe in our connection to the local community: we wish to open our space to local charitable organizations, because responsible hospitality also means showing commitment to the people around us.
One step at a time, towards an increasingly sustainable stay.
