Green issues
We live in a beautiful part of France and would like to help keep it that way. We
therefore do our best to reduce our carbon footprint and follow eco-
- The hot water for the four rooms in the converted barn is heated by solar panels. These are so efficient that we rarely need to use electricity to heat water.
- Solar panels heat the water in the main house, reducing our need to run our boiler.
- Our WCs are fitted with dual flush systems which are economic in their use of water.
- All our rooms are well insulated.
- Low energy light bulbs are fitted in all bedrooms and bathrooms.
- We recycle everything we can and provide recycling bins to encourage our guests to do the same.
- We grow as much of our own fruit and vegetables as we can.
- The garden is watered using collected rainwater.
- We buy locally where possible.
- We have chickens.........so nothing goes to waste
Our renovated barn with its solar panels to heat your hot water!
We buy most of our beef and veal from Jean and Cathy Lavergne, who breed these beautiful and tasty Limousin cattle in our village, Ste Anne St Priest.
