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-friendly practices:

 

• 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!
