Eco-responsible stay
in `Burgundy
Our commitment to responsible and nature-friendly tourism
Sensitive to current climate change , aware that every gesture is important and that efforts must be made by everyone, we have been trying for a few years now to minimize our impact on nature !
We have implemented simple actions and gestures in favor of respect for the environment :
Preserving water resources :
All our toilets are equipped with an economical flushing mechanism and all of our washbasin and shower taps are equipped with aerators to considerably reduce the flow without impacting the comfort of use.
In the garden, we protect our plantations with a mulch of wood shavings or flax straw to reduce the frequency of watering. In addition, the irrigation of the flower beds by a drip and micro-sprinkler system limits the volume of water used.
We also have the chance to benefit from a well of a good capacity, thus avoiding us the use of the water of the network.
In order to preserve the quality of the water, we use a maximum of organic cleaning products.

Energy savings :
We replaced nearly 90% of our light bulbs with LED lights and installed a heat pump as well as energy-efficient household appliances to reduce our electricity consumption.

Waste reduction and recovery :
Among the simplest eco-gestures, recycling and sorting waste is not the least important with of course composting green waste, raising awareness of selective sorting but also by favoring the recycling of objects by giving them a second life.
